I know I said I would try to work on my spotty posting, but I am just too freakin' busy.
My clinic case has some new drama every time I turn around. It sucks away every free moment I have. I am doing my best to help my clients, but it seems like nothing I do actually does any good. It is so frustrating.
Meanwhile, I was apparently deluded when I decided to take both of my required writing courses in the same semester. I am totally going to tank my GPA (which has been hovering at mediocrity, anyway). I had to review my outline for one paper with the profs this week and they reamed me. I spent half of yesterday and all of today in the library, trying to redeem myself before the rough draft is due.
In my other writing class, everyone in the class is having difficulty getting exact parameters on what we are supposed to be researching. I am trying to compare capital murder indictments to find a pattern on when the death penalty is sought. That doesn't sound too bad, except that the DA's office completely shut me down when I called about getting a list of capital murder indictments. They told me the only way to get this info was to get a list of all indictments (2 pages/day and I have to pay per page) and sort through them myself. Makes me wonder what the DA's office is trying to hide.
I am just thankful this week is over. I would like to think it will get better next week, but I already know I have a full schedule and the deadlines for both papers quickly approaching. Whoever said they bore you to death your third year lied. This is the busiest I have ever been.
