it’s late, but oh well. Today was pretty good. I had my alarm set for 11:20 but woke up to a phone call at 11:10 (I keep my phone on vibrate, sometimes it wakes me up and sometimes it doesn’t) so I just ended up being awake from then on. Got ready and headed to class, tried to pay attention but I mean, you know how that goes 🤷🏻‍♀️I do have to start preparing for finals better though. Tonight was my second to last legal profession class for the semester and I feel like I have a fairly good grasp on things overall but the finer details I still get lost in (like the disqualifications for conflict of interest are insanely complicated for some reason). After class I went to grab the “extra reading” for tonight’s class from where it was on the 7th floor, then retreated to the PAD office and started reading that. Around 3:30 or so my friend came to the office, and we had previously discussed getting pizza today and she was like starving, so we went and did that. While we were getting pizza (so good, I’m obsessed with it) I got a confirmation email that both of my letters of recommendation for the fellowship application that was due today were submitted, which was of course a big relief to me, because there had been some complications in the submission process. My old supervisor from OPG CC’ed me on it so I got to read the letter, and guys, it made me so happy. He was practically gushing about how great the motion I wrote was and how well I handled myself in court arguing against 3 full blown attorneys. So hopefully that will look good. I’m not like, terribly confident I’ll get selected for this particular fellowship because it’s mostly based around immigrant’s rights stuff, which isn’t exactly what I have experience in, but I figured it can’t hurt to apply, and if I got it I would be working close to my family but not too close, which is what I’m aiming for at the moment (basically, New York City). So I was glad that was done with. But yeah, got pizza, and ate it at the little food hall place, which is like, the most hipster thing ever haha and eventually I’m gonna need to try the other like, 15 places in there because there are so many and all of them look delicious (there’s like a poke place, a ramen place, a bakery, literally anything you can think of). After we finished we went back to school and I finished up the extra reading, then chilled for a little before going to class. I had a bit more luck paying attention in this class, my professor was asking if we learned about asbestos litigation in our other classes and like one person raised their hand (I believe it was brought up in torts, but very briefly) so I raised my hand and said it hadn’t been brought up in my classes but I knew about it because my dad handles that kind of litigation. Then I raised my hand again regarding a conversation I had with my poverty law professor last night about lawyers doing pro bono work versus them just donating money (my poverty law professor’s opinion was that sometimes money would just be more useful). So I at least felt like I participated in the class. I spent most of both of my classes today scanning pinterest to figure out what desserts I want to make for Thanksgiving, and I eventually settled on cranberry almond shortbread cookies, a dulce de leche apple cake, and a momofuku milk bar “crack pie” which should be, well, interesting lol. When class was over I went home and started Legends, which overall I felt like was a pretty strong episode. I adore finally having three women (plus Gideon) on the waverider, and all the badass adventures they go on together. They better let Sara actually kill Damien Darhk this season or I’m going to flip a shit. The Jax and Stein freaky friday thing was absolutely hilarious, but I couldn’t help but think it was just this week’s excuse to keep firestorm on the ship and out of the special effects budget. The sword fight between Sara and Darhk was pretty sweet, but I feel like I need to point out that you really cannot kill anybody with prop swords, lol. We knew from next week’s episode description that Sara was going to be “out of commission” so I wasn’t surprised when that happened, I’m just glad it’s a fairly easy fix (and I mean, we knew she would be fine for the crossover anyway). But the best part of course by far was Zari taking Helen of Troy to Themyscira instead of back to Troy because holy references batman, between this and Supergirl’s Smallville references last night this might be the best week for references in DCTV history, lol. That was absolutely perfect and I’m so glad they did it, so yeah, no real complaints here. Went right to the Flash afterwards and was rather underwhelmed by the episode. I’m getting really tired of Ralph already, he’s not entertaining, and really just a sleezebag, which is frustrating when you know that’s not at all what his character is in the comics and they basically entirely changed him for the show. But yeah, the whole episode was kind of blah. the villain wasn’t particularly interesting, and the storyline overall felt kind of thin, I guess we’ll see where they go with the whole Thinker in a wheelchair thing, since my first reaction was “are we just gonna trust that the guy in a wheelchair is actually disabled this time?” because I have my doubts after season 1 lol. and not too long after that I got ready for bed and here we are. Like I said, it’s late, so I won’t waste any more time and just go to bed. Goodnight sweeties. Stay awesome.
