Spring Break Where are you?

We are at that half way point!!! Half way through classes and just waiting for that amazing week called Spring Break! I have the unfortunate circumstance of signing myself up for two different academic calendars (don't get me wrong I love both programs but no full week off class stinks)!!

This week I am "technically" on spring break from my MBA classes, but that consists of 2 papers, a power point, and a take home midterm while still attending my law classes. This has been nothing short of a tease! I want to relax, but as many of you know or will find out law school involves a lot of prep work and keeping up on outlines so I am using my "time off" of MBA classes to do work on that and now it is Thursday I still  have all my MBA homework to do for classes next week and I have Barristers (aka Law Prom) this weekend which is WAY more exciting then 8 essays on managerial economics.

Barristers is a BLAST! and no date needed :-) which my team of 14 year old girls that I coach has determined I am lying about and that I just won't tell them who my date is (in reality I have to get up at 6am the morning after Barristers to coach them so I want to be able to go home at a reasonable time). Barristers is kind of like a sorority formal except it includes your whole school and professors come (also no one has to volunteer to be a sober monitor).  I am now able to go because someone messed up my teams tournament schedule (i was suppose to be in Cleveland all weekend) and I am so excited!! However, the little things like a midterm and paper are getting in my way - by the way my computer is currently getting fixed so I cant write papers from my comfy bed. 

So in anticipation of a real spring break, which I will give to myself by skipping MBA classes on my Law spring break today I am going to a tanning salon to feel warm and getting a fruit smoothie, thinking of the warm weather in Florida while I sit at a computer somewhere and get all my homework done that actually needs turned in. Then I am going to enjoy Barristers with my friends regardless of being responsible the morning after!

So here is an image to think of as February ends and March begins! Spring Break is up ahead and Barristers is here in the mean time!
