    highlighters and sweat.
    Today is really my hump day. I have three out of four classes on M, T, Th, so when Thursday's over, I feel about 10 pounds lighter. At least that's the case for this first week. I still have about 18 pages to read for Administrative Law tomorrow morning, but otherwise, I am feeling okay.

    I need to draft a complaint for Federal Courts this weekend. I do not look forward to it. it is really just an exercise, not graded. but it is also in addition to the 100 pages of reading for that class. welcome back, Zuska!!

    I am finding myself going back to my old 1L habits, socially. which means i am in a world of my own. i was much more socially involved in the fall, because of the teaching thing. i had my students, and i had the fellow teaching-people, and i was required to be in touch with many people on a pretty consistent basis. but now i'm just a Student again, and that means that I have my list of things to do, and more limits on the hours in which I can do them than most of those around me. If I do not hunker down, I'm not gonna get done.

    And this quarter I'm really insistent upon the gym being a priority. i've always tried in the past, and things always took priority. Understandably. but now i'm determined. 1.5 years of other things taking priority is not good for a girl's body image. and i'm sick of it.

    so i'll be a solo flyer, and i am fine with that.

    b/c then i come home, and i have dinners cooked for me, and little(ish) arms thrown around me, and i feel good about the work i'm doing, and good about meeting goals, and good about where i am. and i am no longer 22 or 23. or single. or responsible for only myself. and those things, i do not miss.
