A Year of Blog Fail

Oh the irony.  Apparently the last time I had time for this blog was at the beginning of my first spring semester as a law student and I was facing a dire future in the land of unemployment.  Then I got creative.  The top US law firms only extend internship positions to the top of the top of the top US law schools.  If I'm not top of the top of the top, how do I get into this fabled land of $20K yearly bonuses, $160K starting salaries, chic briefcases, and Chanel power suits?  By putting my networking skills into full force.  Long story short, my cousin sent my resume to some of the law firms that she works with and as it turns out, they happen to be the top law firms in the world.  Before I knew it, I was setting up an interview with SA (since I realized I would love to one day work full-time for this firm, I thought it would be best to stick with initials...) and now I'm slated to start my summer internship with them on May 16th.  I also found out that the company that I used to work with is actually a client of SA.  I guess it was truly meant to be.

Anyhoo, my blog has all but gone down the drain.  Thank you if you still check this blog from time to time.  Since August of 2010, instead of Christian Louboutin, CL has come to mean "common law".  Instead of picking my favorite styles of the season, I've been busy trying to figure out who my favorite Supreme Court Justice of all time is (FYI: Scalia closely trailed by Cardozo).  Rather than following the drama on tPF, I spend my time trying to figure out who scored the A+* on the midterm.  And instead of LMAO with DZ on gchat, I get a kick out of civ pro jokes at 8am.  Oh the exciting life that I lead.  Heres a quick look back:

Now with only torts in between me and Sidley, instead of memorizing the duty owed to entrants on land, I've been occupied with the much more exciting task of organizing my BRAND, SPANKIN' NEW SHOE CLOSET :)  Welcome to the love of my life (second to Libby and Olivia of course..):

Full view:




Pure love.  I look in every morning and just sigh.  This was meant to house my shoes and purses.  As you can see, my army of shoes won the battle.  For now, my purses have hijacked my mom's closet BUT they might get their very own space before the end of summer :)

(Msr Louboutin had many styles available this S/S season in watersnake.  So much so that there was actually a watersnake shortage!)

Leopard Ponyhair Madame Butterfly Pumps:

And now for something that bears a close resemblance to the wood carvings on the antique screens my parents have around the house...
