it is such a boring throwaway class. i feel like i'm in undergrad, in a sociology class. some groups in class are going to be presenting ADR to civ pro classes, so they're practicing today... so it is a bunch of students presenting material that we kind of know, but never really learned in the first place, because no one does any of the reading. at least i don't. usually in this class i read for con law, but not today.
i had a bad time yesterday. all i want to do is sleep anymore, and even when i'm awake i wish i were asleep. law school has made me hate thinking, reading, writing, and researching. not that i was a huge fan of any of those things to begin with. i'm glad spring is coming; i can't deal with the dark and cold anymore, on top of the frustration. i hardly can go outside at all - not only is it dark and cold but also it's newark, and newark is unsafe. i can't wait to move to texas for the summer. actually it's going to be blisteringly hot and i have no idea about how safe it will be, so i will probably be singing a different tune once that starts. but we'll see.
jimmy is touring with genghis tron! april 1st... i have to buy tickets soon, he says it's selling out and he doesn't know if he can guestlist me. its a show with converge and some other tough guy bands, which i'm not really into, but it will be totally worth it to see jimmy again!

spring break is over...
...so i've been here for 3/4 of a school year and i'm still getting job offers in my email. i should take my resume off of those job hunting sites but i don't remember what my password is, and i don't feel like taking the three seconds to have it reset. i just forward them along to other people anyway. i actually have a job now - for the school year (in the library) and over the summer (texas). I'm a little worried about the texas job - it's going to be really interesting, it's definitely going to be a really good experience, but it's going to be SO HOT and so far away from everything else.
the skokos, sash and i went to see the pogues show on sunday - pogues, will e whitmore, and billy bragg. it was such an amazing show. i love will whitmore and i LOVE billy bragg- sash said i was rapt the whole time they were playing. before the pogues came on, of course the clash was playing really loudly, and sash and i had the idea to have a 'stand in the dark and listen to the clash' party. i really like the idea, except i think it should probably be a 'sit in the dark and listen to the clash party' just because standing is so tedious. and because i have a lot of experience at sitting in the dark and listening to the clash - i'm basically a pro.
every time it's mentioned how often everyone here worked as paralegals, or in law firms, or doing legal work before starting law school, i get more convinced i am in the wrong place. i mean, law school, but NEWARK is just so BORING...
Billy Bragg and Kate Nash covering the Shangri-Las:

(i yelled for it and he said he might not play it because it is slow and sad, but he played it anyway, which is terrific because it is an amazing song!):
