About Me

LAW SCHOOL!!!!!!!!!!!! Here comes I.Although I spent around $800 on my law books (oh god, shoot me now), I'm as excited as hell.Oh, and I'm still running, partying, and having a great time in general.THIS IS THE BEST TIME OF MY LIFE!!!!!!!!!Not to mention that I saw Rufus Wainwright last weekend.... Fucking orgasmic is not even the right phrase.For all of you who haven't heard the "All Of Jacqueline's Heros Are Dead" speech... So yeah, all of my musical heros are dead. I will never, ever have a dialogue with Beethoven, or Mozart, or Verdi, or Wagner. That's the end of it.But Rufus.... He's like Verdi meets Wagner meets Judy Garland. He is my rising sun.Overly dramatic... Perhaps? But what else would you expect from the likes of me?... Those who know me well.I'm smart, opinionated, determined, and maybe a little too career-oriented. So sue me. I love my life.

The law school admissions scene shaped up very nicely for me. Not only did I get accepted everywhere I applied, but I was surprised and thrilled to have a ton of scholarship offers at my do...
