The Last Time: First Day of Class

As of today, I have attended all of my classes at least once, marking the last time I will ever have a first day of school. 

I have not done any readings thus far because I have none of my books yet.  Law school is so easy without textbooks.  I am almost dreading their arrival. 

My class schedule has been cleverly designed so that I have to do as little work as possible. Oh, you're going to require us to write papers?  DROP.  Outside projects?  DROP.  Only class readings and a final?  ADD.  Last semester was so intense I could barely catch my breath.  I'm not going out like that.  Bare minimum without embarrassing myself.  That is this semester's theme.  Get a job is also this semester's theme.  Also, save money for a summer that will be spent doing bar prep. 

Oh alright fine, I'll do a little more than bare minimum.  Depending on my grades from last semester which still have not been released, I am on the razor's edge of being able to graduate with honors.  I do want to try to at least accomplish that. 

The last passing around of syllabuses, the last time I write my name on a seating chart, the last time I have to do that awkward look around to see if I have any buddies in the room.  Check, check, check.

Hey Christina! So, it's true I only know you through your blog, but that I also know Sheridan should (I hope) be enough to assure you that I'm not crazy or scary. (Please let me know if I need a better reference.) Anywho, this doesn't have anything to do with your post (congrats on no more first day of classes though! I never liked that), but I was wondering if you would be at all interested in meeting up for a meal or something in Philadelphia, at some point this year. My husband and I live in DC, and we really want to come up and tour the city (he's been there before but I never have), and I thought hey! I know someone there, and wouldn't it be great to meet up. So, no definite plans yet, but I wanted to put it on your radar and see whether you have any free time this semester. Or this summer. You know, whenever. Ok! Hope all is well, talk soon!
