Month Sabbatical

I took a month off from blogging. Why? I don't know. I just didn't feel like it. I still don't really. But lots of people have pestered me to post so I will. A lot of stuff happened but I don't really want to talk about it here yet because I need some time to construct it into a logical paper. State the case so to speak. I haven't officially accepted a job yet but I'm pretty committed to working for Brooklyn Legal Services. I got a grant from Davis, Polk & Wardwell and another from Equal Justice America so I think I can afford to stay in the city. I would be working for the Domestic Violence Unit and maybe for the HIV/AIDS project too. Causes I believe in at least. Finals are stressing me out in a big way. In undergrad it wasn't so bad. I was stressed but not so much that I couldn't focus. Here it's a little too much. Maybe a lot too much. I went swimming last night to try to clear my head. Worked briefly but then had nightmares and woke up in the morning depressed. I don't know what to say. Frist is destroying any semblance of checks and balances in the senate. Alaska is open for oil drilling. Social Security is under attack. Anti-Israel sentiments on campus are growing and anti-Semitism along with it. The religious right grows stronger by the day. The world is a mess. And maybe that shouldn't concern me but it does. Finals suck.  ¶ 8:58 PM (0) comments
