Dunzo

Yep. Done. Fin. Over.

Well, at least for now. One semester of law school is "in the books." My last exam, Criminal Law, went about as well as I expected. A few curveballs here and there, but mostly belt high fastballs over the heart of the plate. And unlike too many times in little league, I was able to make the most out of them.

After the exam ended at 11 AM, most of the 1L's headed downtown and made up for all of the lost weekends. While I'm not neccesarilly proud of it, I spent the entire day (minus one hour) in a bar. And yet, I wake up this morning feeling fantastic. Okay, so it's actually the afternoon. And I think I caught some kind of cold. But I don't think I would change a thing.

I'm not sure what to expect, grade-wise, for my first semester of law school. And frankly, I'm not too worried about it. My professor for Crim told us about the concept of "Cosmic Redirection." Basically, it means that I wouldn't fail out of law school; I'd only be cosmically redirected. As if there's some grand scheme for me in life and law wasn't part of it. I can live with that. But for now, I'm not going to spend any time worrying about grades. It's time to enjoy the next two weeks. Merry Christmas, Happy Hannukah, Happy Kwanza, and a Happy Festivus.
