one of these is not like the others


Picture a group of nervous 1L's, sitting around after civ pro class (which, incidently, did much to assuage the penguin-feelings described below).

Stressbunny #1: What are you doing this weekend? I guess I am gonna study federal subject matter jurisdiction.

Stressbunny #2: Oh, me too, just studying.

Stressbunny #3: Yeah, I was going to go away, but I'm like gonna hit the books instead.

Stressbunny #4: Yeah. I like totally have to memorize civil procedure this weekend. (Turning to me) How about you?

Me: (shrug) I'm going river rafting this weekend.

All stressbunnies: (silence, shifting of feet)

Stressbunny #4: Are you gonna bring your books?

And with that, I am out of here until late Monday night. Have a good Labor Day weekend, all!

    OMG, you are so a law student after my own heart. As soon as I get the opportunity I'm adding you to my list of blawgs. Thanks for the laughs.

    Thanks! I am having a lot of fun blogging about law school -- how else can I keep a good sense of perspective. :)

    The one that went river rafting has the right idea.

    Loved reading this, but it's kind of sad about the 'stressbunnies'. Hopefully, they'll get past this and learn how to cope with all of it. Tell us about the river rafting...were you able to enjoy your time, I assume, with your husband, laugh a lot, stay dry, and drink some wine???????
    These blogs are wonderful.........isn't technology grand??!!

    Ohmegod, I laughed so hard. I love reading your stuff and you really help relieve the stress of being a 1L. I am so glad it is the weekend. I put together a basic schedule for the next 3 months and worked in some flexibility. Good luck in your studies and I hope the river was kind to you and your books stayed dry (just joking, I couldn't resist)
