Ah, and I'm back. Welcome to my legal world. Which currently consists of me trying desperately to organize my room (read: my life) before classes start up once again. And coming to terms with my lacking performance as a student. Yes, the bonus of coming back to good ol'BU is that I have very smart friends. Ironically, I had/have very smart friends in Cornell. Maybe it is my way of moving up the ladder or intelligence. NOTE: for any of you who read this and are going to yell at me, I know that I am not dumb. BUT, there is a little part of me that misses high school, where I was the big smart fish in the little puddle that was Ichabod Crane.

Ah, but I diverge. Classes start in a week, and I have welcoming duties till then. Which means I get to chat with the 1Ls. Interesing, since I was in there shoes not one year ago, yet it seems like a lifetime in many ways. Like the greenhorn that has survived his first battle. He becomes a veteran in the course of hours, and rapidly becomes hardened to the war. Sometimes it is good to talk to the greenhorn, it helps you remember why you signed up for the war in the first place....
