November 20th, 2010This past week was completely insane. I’m having a hard time even remembering everything that occurred. I’ll mention a couple of highlights. On Thursday, there was a Symposium on Bullying with 3 excellent speakers who did a great job addressing the recent escalation in bullying related suicides. Although it is difficult to squeeze in these sorts of extra events, they’re usually exceptional and worthwhile, so I do my best to fit...

November 15th, 2010Where did the weekend go? I was at school both Saturday and Sunday, so I guess that would explain why it feels as though there was absolutely no weekend at all. Today I have to give my presentation for my international human rights seminar on female genital surgery. Although my presentation is ready, my paper is not. Luckily, the paper is not due until December 1st, so I have some time before panic has to settle in for that. M...

November 10th, 2010I fell a bit behind in my classes a couple of weeks ago when I was trying to work on my seminar paper and I’m still trying to catch up. I swear, it does not matter how many hours I will work; I still won’t see even a small dent in the amount of work that needs to be done. Honestly, I’m becoming a little panicked! Sometimes, panic can be a good thing because that forces you to get into gear and put in as long of days as possible...

November 6th, 2010It’s already November! Where did the semester go? Final exams are quickly approaching and I am definitely not ready yet. I remember this time last year I was a complete mess. I was so nervous about outlines, exams, and the whole process I could barely think straight. I’ve talked to a couple of current 1Ls and they seem so calm, cool, and collected; I don’t get it! Either they put up an excellent front in an attempt to not let th...

October 28th, 2010Dessert with the Dean- Town Hall Meeting Yesterday the Dean of our school graciously took time out of his schedule to have a round table discussion with students. The President of each class made a dessert for the student body (I made chocolate chip cookies) and we all gathered together in a casual, intimate setting with Dean Semple. He was the only administrator present so students could feel free to voice any concerns o...

October 25th, 2010While in law school, you’re required to take a seminar class and write a lengthy paper making an original argument. I chose to take my seminar class this semester (mostly because it was a class I was actually able to get into). Each semester different seminar topics are offered but the one I am in is International Human Rights. After much research, I decided to write my paper on female circumcision. I spent hours working on it t...

October 18th, 2010There is a lot of exciting stuff going on around the law school this week! The monthly SBA meeting is this Wednesday at 4:30.

October 13th, 2010It feels like winter this morning, two days ago it felt like summer, where did Fall go? I hope we’re not going to skip right over that season! The only good thing about having a long drive to school is that my car gets nice and toasty. In high school I lived so close to school I was still frozen by the time I got there. There’s a guest speaker later today at school that I plan to go see. He’s an international human rights attor...

October 6th, 2010It’s always something… I wouldn’t say that I’m an accident prone person, but I will say that I am a person who gets herself in situations where it makes people usually respond with “how? Wait what? I swear…only you Ashley…” I have a class canceled tomorrow which I am ecstatic about; however, I’ll be spending the free time in the doctor’s office. Let me share with you why…. About a month ago I woke up with pink swollen itc...

October 4th, 2010I don’t know if everyone would agree, but so far this semester I have found it to be significantly easier than first year. Well, I should rephrase that; if I weren’t working, I would find this semester to be significantly easier than last year. I did take a summer class so my load isn’t quite as heavy as it would be otherwise, but still I feel if I wasn’t working I’d have plenty of time to stay on top of everything in all of my c...
