Today was the first day of my Summer Internship. I am a Summer Associate at one of the Chicago law firms. Since I don't know yet what this blog may contain, the firm will remain nameless for now. We had different partners come and talk to us and of course we got our requisite deluge of papers. So much for computers saving us from papers.
We rounded out the day with dinner at a nice restaurant and it was then the day just started. I walked past a table in the restaurant and lo and behold, there was Don King having dinner. I did a double take, well, he seemed to have had a bit of a haircut....Anyway, I went back to my table where the other associates were and told them that I had indeed seen the man himself.
Not quite 30 minutes later, who walks into our room!!!! Yeah, you got it, Don King himself accompanied by Jesse White, the Secretary of State for Illinois..of course he started out with a disclaimer...he can't help us with the parking tickets or DUI but for anything else, there's Jesse White.....
I just turned to one of the associates at the firm after Jesse and Don King left and asked "Where do I sign up?"

I have a 25 paged paper to complete...it has been hard getting motivation to finish this paper, actually I confess, starting it is a problem but it is easier to think about finishing. Where is Harry Potter and his magic wand when you need him?
It is 10am, I have just finished watching the last season of Third Watch...looks like that show is getting cancelled or something...then Law and Order-Trial by Jury just concluded, I am not sure how different "TBJ" is from the other law and order series. I also have a problem with the proliferation of law and order. It makes it hard to follow, I used to only have to look forward to Wednesdays but now its Sunday: Criminal Intent, Tueday : SVU and Friday:TBJ....Thank goodness for DVD, I just wait for the season to come out on DVD and buy it and watch one season in three days.
Now about that Virgin Mary image under the bridge at Fullerton and the Kennedy expressway....I need to pilgrimage there for my lottery numbers. Anyway, let me get out of here till I have nothing better to say later.

It is the end of the semester, I still have one paper to write!! Dang,. I wished I had worked on it over spring break but alas, no motivation. I went to Bar Review - the end of semester bar review, that was interesting but once you get to know everyone, it is hard to have to say goodbye for the summer much less to our departing 3Ls.
The baby kept crying through the night, if only babies could talk and let us know where it hurts....As I am typing, am fatigued and need sleep since I didnt sleep a wink especially since I came back from bar review close to 3am...Meanwhile who says that married people dont go to clubs and dont stay out late? How old fashioned...that saying is the crutch of highly dependent people who cant do jack on their own and need that crutch....I didn't commit an offence so whats with the jail time?
Arrg, well let me finish my breakfast of wheatbread, egg and Kenyan tea.
PS. Did I tell you that my sister - the Doc - got me a blackberry for my birthday...cool gadget, I have not decided whether I will get my email on it yet but I am looking forward to hooking it up. My wife got me a replacement digital camera for the one that got stolen by the merry band of thieves at Atlanta Hartsfield Airport. Dont ever be dumb enough to check your camera in your lugguage...it makes you wonder what you could possibly check in that won't be stolen - what? dirty underwear??

Its another exam season again, actually, exams are coming to an end, I need to be more faithful to this blogging business. Half the time, I am actually doodling on paper so I might as well doodle here.
I have a take home exam that is so open ended as the US-Mexico border!! I am not sure how to begin to answer the questions and how to limit the number of pages but I think I will refrain from throwing in the kitchen sink.
I had planned to study in the library till late tonight but I forgot that I had moved to the surburbs. Dang, now I have to leave and catcht the metra, I guess I have to continue this tomorrow. I am tired and need to rest for a little while.
