First Blog

So a lot of people I know have blogs. Most of them married with families. Me not so much. But here's why I decided to do a blog. We are told to keep a journal and I'm horrible at writing in a journal. But for some reason I can blog all the time. So I figure its the same thing. I normally blog on sparkpeople.com but there the blog needs to be more workyouty and I don't always want to write about that. Since the only thing thats going on in my life is that I'm in law school. That's really the only exciting thing. The boy Ive been chatting with is a moron so I've given up on that. And no we haven't hung out. Jerk. Anyway, I went to the immigration court on Tuesday and sat in on some preliminary proceedings of deportation cases. So fascinating! I know I'm a nerd. I totally want to do this type of law. Although sitting in front of a judge scares the crap out of me. But I think I'd get used to it. I did have to argue in front of a judge last semester and that turned out ok. I really enjoyed it actually. But I went to the court and you get to help people with their legal questions at the Pro Bono Clinic. That was cool too. The whole conversation was in Spanish and I understood 95% of the whole conversation so that was nice. I haven't lost all of my Spanish...thankfully. Well anyway, I also went to Catholic Community Services and helped the immigration attorney there. I sat through two consultations and enjoyed that as well. I won't be going back there until Tuesday and then every Wednesday I'll be at the immigration court. Wednesday's will be exciting because that is when they bring the detanees in to have their prelim proceedings. Its all a fascinating procedure and process. Yes once again I'm a nerd. Ok I better either get ready for work or take a quick nap...ummm...
