Sorry I wasn't around to help, but wouldn't have been able to if I was. I'm just no help at all am I??? LOL

You'll find it Angie...you're smart and persistant..take a break and then it will probably come to you. Good luck!

Thank Janet! :hug: I ended up going to bed with a headache last night so a good night's sleep was my break. :) It's due tomorrow and this silly little article is all I have left to do...

My class is going well it wasn't too hard... it was mostly learning about the resources that are out there... now the second half of the class is trial advocacy, hence the mock trial case from the vent the other night... :rolleyes: I'm graduating hopefully next year with a degree in legal studies and possibly a major in music... i have a lot of music credits but haven't decided if i'm going to finish the major, or just walk out with the minor, which i already have enough credits for... and no i'm still in undergrad, i'm only 21... and finally i don't know what kind of law i want to practice but i'm almost certain that it's not gonna be criminal law... i'd like to do something wiht international law, maybe diplomacy or something, but i'll have to start off in private practice anyway...so maybe labor or corporate... who knows! lol :)

That's awesome. Sounds like you'll have an exciting life. :) We'll graduate around the same time I think. We'll have to have a 4wt party to celebrate! LOL

Did you finish your mock trial? If so, how did you do?

YAY PARTY!!!! :)

lol

it's not over yet, i have to present my direct and cross exams and my closing statement, i have my direct and cross already turned in and have my closing left to do... it's due on monday... it's not really like a trial setting, we just have to present each part as if it were... and then our prof. critiques what we have... i'm not as frustrated any more, and i think i'll do much better on closing than i did on the opening...

Good! I'm glad things are looking up. :) And think, only a few more weeks and the semester will be over!!

i know!!! i cannot wait!!! and then only 30 more credits and i'm doneeeee... well not counting law school of course... :eek:

Me too! I have next semester which is mostly electives (12-15 credit hours, my lightest load yet!) and then field placement which means I work 36 hours per work and have a 3 hour seminar course to talk about issues in the field. I get 16 credits for this. No pay unfortunately. lol

After that, it's off to grad school. I just found out a few days ago that I can go for free! :D I was ecstatic!

I'm glad to have someone to celebrate the upcoming academic milestones with. :) Now you can't go off to law school and get too busy for us, got it! hehe

got it! :) how are you going to grad school for free???:eek:

Through a GA program. It pays all of tuition plus about $670/month...that's what I've been told anyway. I have to look into more thoroughly, but I'm crossing my fingers and hoping it's true! Also, I'm going into an advanced standing program, so I'll be done in one year! It's tough, but for me it's worth it to graduate a year early.

You should look into your grad program and see if they pay GA tuition. Just make sure you work for a good professor. I've been told some are slave-drivers and others are awesome.

ooooh, once i find out where i want to go i will...that is awesome thanks for the tip!!!

No problem. I didn't even know about it myself until I talked to a secretary a few days ago. She randomly brought it up when I said I didn't know if I'd be able to pay for grad school. I always knew GA's existed (been taught by a few of them), but I never knew they got tuition paid for and a little extra for living expenses. That's a really great deal!

yeah that is so awesome!! cuz that means for me that i'll be able to move out of my house and still go to school!!!!!!! :) and possibly marry my bf... the big thing right now is that my parents will stop paying for school if i move out... so that's a big deal... aww... you made my day :)

Aww, that makes me happy! Glad I was able to help. :) You could also apply for scholarships on top of that and maybe get even more money to live off of. That's how I'm able to go through my undergrad without working. I have a few grants and several scholarships. It's really nice to be able to focus completely on school and not have the stress of a job on top of it.

Wow, you have so many exciting things to look forward to! :)

:)

i pm'ed you
