Stupid little things that get me through a 10 hour day of studying:
(1) The iPhone comes out in 9 days, and my mom is getting me one...she rocks in so many ways!
(2) Softball game on Thursday...and I got me some new socks!
(3) Caravan Thursday...and I get to play wingman for M...
(4) Good weather...maybe? please? I'm hoping for Friday to be a pretty day so we can lay out by the pool and study.
(5) SYTYCD tomorrow night - I've got DVR so it only takes me about 30 minutes to watch it.
(6) Testing my commercial paper skills --- yes, I'm one of those nerds who enjoys subjects that 99% of law student loathe.
(7) The fact that Kelli actually mentioned today that she'd be down with studying at Panera one day within the next week...sweet!
(8) Blogging...ha.
Things that I'm putting off/not looking forward to:
(1) Paying my cable, phone and electric bill. Only because I'm lazy.
(2) Getting my new Oklahoma license...only because I don't want to take my hair out of a ponytail or put mascara on for the picture.
(3) Order my transcript...because the TU business office is so damn hard to get to get to with all the construction. Kelli: we are doing this after barbri either tomorrow or Thursday, because we both need to do it.
(4) Civil Procedure tomorrow AND Thursday. Listen, I don't mind jurisdictional issues, in fact I heart anything having to do with jurisdiction; what I don't like is all the deadlines for motions etc etc that we are going to have to memorize.

Victory is mine!
1. I found my passport!!! It was underneath the passenger seat of my car. And, yes, I looked yesterday, but I don't think you have any idea how messy my car was. Problem solved. Now I don't have to pay $150 to get one expedited to me in time for my cruise.
2. It's not a fun game, and it doesn't have very good odds, but I won the "Find the Smell" game. It wasn't in my trash, it wasn't in my fridge, it was in my garbage disposal. So I did the dishes, cleaned out the fridge, cleaned the counters, chopped up a lime and threw it down the garbage disposal.
That is all, now I can get back to studying.

We need a beer on 3rd!
It was another evening for softball, and I had a blast. It was a nice break after thinking about and studying for the bar all day. We lost by 2 runs, but I had a great hit deep into center field, I had a killer catch which left me on the ground and I got to slide into 2nd. It took me back to the days playing with West Austin Youth Association. Fun times...can't wait till next week!

An ass kicking in fee simple absolute
It's been a busy several days...but now, I will update.
1. I'm in the library right now, which is being renovated and there's this incessant beeping noise every 5 seconds that is giving me a headache. Would it be bitchy if I emailed the dean about this? I mean, we're studying for the bar exam, which our school didn't prepare us for in the very least...it would be nice to have a quiet place to study.
2. I was suppose to fly down to Austin yesterday to testify against my father in a custody hearing regarding my sister. Turns out everything settled, and after getting a ride to the airport, rescheduling my flight twice and then finally canceling, I am now fairly certain that I don't have to go down there.
3. I have a step-mother...weird. I've never met her, but I found out today that my father actually married the woman he's been with for the past 5 years...the same woman he had an affair with while my parents were still married...classy chick, I'm sure. My mom says that she seems nice, but still, I think the only way I could have any respect for her is if she had absolutely no idea that my dad was still married when they started seeing eachother...which is highly likely.
4. I've been kicking ass in my workouts. Kelli and I have been going almost everyday for 2 hours. We went to this one class on Friday that was literally like a boot camp. We are both really sore, but feel good. She's a great study/exercise buddy...glad I found someone compatible to work with this Summer.
5. I'm excited about softball tonight. I'm playing with Jones, Gotcher and Bogan, and they are all lots of fun...I'm also going to run over to target and pick myself up a new glove, since mine has been lost for a while now.
6. Saturday night, I lost my brand new sterling silver id case, with my debit card, gas card, student id, license, $150 Panera gift card and $50 Subway gift card in it. Mainly, I'm upset about the gift cards, but I'm hoping it will turn up soon...I'm thinking it's somewhere at Niels' house or in his car.
7. KNOCKED UP = BEST. MOVIE. EVER. Not exaggerating. If anyone wants to go see it, I will gladly go see it again. I was laughing my ass off throughout the whole movie. I can't wait to see it again.
8. I'm signed up for a massage on Thursday at 2:30, Kelli and I are going over to the Clary Sage Massage School. Since, to date, I've done 104.5 hours of studying, I'm ready for my first well-deserved massage.

From Kitchen Stadium...
I think I'm in love with Iron Chef Bobby Flay...the way he worked those cowboy ribeyes tonight...damn! But seriously, I've had a crush on him for, well, ever since I first saw him.
Cheesy photo...I know.

Am I 14?
I don't know if it's studying for the bar exam or something else, but lately I've been watching the dumbest 14 year old girl Disney movies. Today I watched (and loved):
And I can't wait till ABC Family starts playing this:

Monday = Miss Universe 2007
My Post-Prelim/Pre-Final Top 15
My Top Five
USA
I have to have her as my winner because she's adorable, exotic, great body and so sweet, and I can't remember another Miss USA who was a better fit for Universe.
Bolivia
One of my favorites from the very beginning, I like her curves and she has a gorgeous face.
Mexico
Love love love her face and she seems very spunky and intelligent after hearing her interviews. Also, we all know the Mexican fans are obnoxious and rude, but let's not blame their contestant.
Denmark
This is my underdog that I hope goes far this year. Her face is so unique and I'm loving her new dress.
South Africa
Have to put a blonde in top 5. I think what I like about her is that she's blonde but still has miss universe appeal, which is very rare. And her dress is my favorite.
My Top Ten
Spain
I like her gown change and I really think it's her smile and her interview that made me a fan.
Guatemala
I just love this girls' face, not a huge fan of the dress, but still, just beautiful.
Dominican Republic
She wasn't one of my favorites at first, but wow...that dress!
Nicaragua
Her new dress is nice, but I'm not crazy about it. Good color though...I'm loving all the color in this year's pageant. Pretty girl, great body.
Brazil
I'm loving her new dress and she's got an exotic and flawless look to her.
My Top Fifteen
Honduras
This girl has major universe appeal, but I'm not liking the orange dress on her skin...but I hope to see her in top 15.
Panama
I've liked her since the beginning. Her and USA probably look like they are the youngest in the competition, but a couple of the prettiest.
Venezuela
Another exotic beauty...America, North and South, will dominate this year.
India
Very beautiful and definitely exotic, but I've seen some bad pictures, so I'm not sure if she's very consistently photogenic.
Serbia
Gorgeous blonde, and I love her gown...only problem is she looks a bit older than most of the contestants in my opinion.
Bubble:
Japan - I don't like her gown change and her interview was iffy, but still a gorgeous girl and I wish she would change her gown back.
Thailand - It's her new dress that caught my eye, but she's been a wallflower to me from the beginning.
Greece - Not a girl that I've seen much appeal in from the start, but she seems to appeal to most people, and I do love how different her dress is, in a good way.

I've been busy.
1. I'm going to do this Jackie-style.
2. Saturday, I graduated law school. Graduation was long and boring (5 speakers people). Sara and I were a little toasted, so it wasn't as bad as it could've been. Dean Butkin said "I wish you all great sex" instead of success, and then the lights went out, and then some 4 year old give vomited all over the programs. It was eventful.
3. A couple of hours before my graduation, I was offered a job, a real one. And since then, I have decided to accept it. So yay! I feel like I should be more excited, but really, the whole graduating thing and job thing, it's not going to really hit me for a while.
4. Several hours before graduation, I woke up to discover that I had made a damn fool of myself - for those of you who are close to me, you know what I'm talking about. I think that it was, by far, the funniest and most embarassing thing I've done since I've been in law school.
5. It's been raining...a lot. And I mean, it hasn't stopped raining since Sunday and it's not suppose to stop any time in the near future. I feel gross because I'm damp everywhere I go and, while I love storms and rain, it's starting to get pretty depressing.
6. Bar review has begun. It's exciting to learn something other than native american law, yet, scary considering the amount of information we are learning in the span of 11 weeks. I will definitely be blogging about that for the next couple of months. Stay tuned.
7. The spinoff of Grey's Anatomy looks so damn dumb. It's like, let's sit around and tease everyone about what huge whores they are, because it's a funny, and not completely outdated story line to have a bunch of doctors who all sleep with eachother. Sorry, I love Addison Montgomery, but really? I won't be watching this.
8. American Idol - I am now completely faithful to Jordin Sparks. Melinda is starting to sound too old for my taste, even though I still love her. Blake annoys the crap out of me, but I think that's unfair to him, because he reminds me of my ex-boyfriend. But really, Tuesday's performance was awful. And well, Lakisha is already home, but I would have booted Blake over her.
9. I finally replaced my mini-tramp that was broken during a final exam celebration with Rob and Megan - so I'm going to start working out on that again and hopefully I won't have to go get a gym membership.
10. Miss Universe is in full force right now so if you're interested, I'm routing for USA, Bolivia, Mexico and South Africa. There are others, but those are my favorites. I will be talking more about this closer to the pageant on May 25th.

For my 100th post
I'm back. I moved my blog over to myspace for a bit, but I'm back and I'm going to post a few of my myspace postings that I find to be particularly interesting or entertaining on here to catch up...here's one:
I have a new-found hero. I always loved her before, but she has officially reached hero status. Sarah Silverman. She's a woman, she's racist, offensive and jewish, how much cooler can you get? J/k, but really, I love her. I can't wait for her show to come back on. Here's a clip just in case you don't know who she is.
Another chick I'm really digging right now is the newly crowned Miss USA 2007, former Miss Tennessee 2007 Rachel Smith. Could we ask for a better Miss USA? Well, in all honesty, anyone would have been better after Tara Conner. I'm such a pageant dork, I know. But in all seriousness, she's incredibly beautiful, exotic, she has dimples, she's a mixed-race baby (best accessory EVER), she's southern, smart, used to work for Oprah, slamming body and so sweet. Here's a clip of her on Oprah. Eat it up!

I need to get in touch with Meme to see what exactly happened...but here they are!

Look what I made for Raevan!
Loving photoshop...anyhoo, I'm going to get this blown up and printed for Raevan before I leave for Palm Springs...I think she'll like it.

And the new miss teen usa 2006 is...
...I'm hoping and praying that it's my girl, Raevan. Can't wait to get to Palm Springs in just one week! But first, I'll be stopping off in Vegas for a couple of days to play with Marisa. Here are the latest shots from Palm Springs of Raevan (aka Miss Teen Texas).
Fadil Photoshoot and Evening gown...you can't see the detail here, but the top is fully beaded with bronze beads.

I need a magic answer here...
The Miss Texas USA Pageant is this Sunday and considering the fact that Raevan is going to be in just about every commercial and I'm embarassingly involved in the gossip of this pageant, I must see it. The problem is that I'm in Oklahoma and it is only airing on local Texas channels. Yes, I suppose I could drive down to Dallas and watch it, but seriously, I'm looking for another option. So...
Does anyone know any way that I could see this? Is there like a website I could go to to watch something that is only airing on local networks?

All the painting I did last week...
...turned out awesome. My kitchen and bathroom were white and now they're green and lavender. My sun room was mustard yellow, now it's hot pink. Here are the pics!

Pickles should be cheaper
For those of you who know me well, or have been to a movie with me, you know how much I lust after movie theatre dill pickles, which you can now purchase at Quik Trip. Well, they are 99 cents, which I think is a little on the expensive side, considering that all they do is pick them from the vine or whereever they come from and then put them in a bag. Anyways, my current snack of choice is the dill pickle, so I had to bitch about the way that corporate america is taking advantage of my salty craving...

Palm Springs and a Beauty Pageant
I am very excited about a trip I am taking this August. Chad, Kelly, Jacque, Jess and I are all going to Palm Springs to watch Raevan compete as Miss Teen Texas in the Miss Teen USA Pageant. Raevan is pictured below...isn't she beautiful?
I really could care less where we go, because I always have the best time with Chad et al...but Palm Springs is going to be awesome. I think I may stick around after the pageant to hop over to San Diego to visit Emily (best friend since 2nd grade).

Let it snow!
After looking at animals all day on Friday, Rey and Susan came back to my apartment and we watched an exceedingly vulgar documentary called "The Aristocrats". After getting about halfway through that, we turned it off and started getting ready to go downtown, and that's about the time it started snowing. Snow makes me very excited, because I rarely get to see it in Texas, so naturally we took a bunch of pictures.
We headed down to 818 for about 5 minutes and then over to Kilkenny's where about half the law school was.
Saturday, I went bowling, which was an absolute blast. I haven't bowled since highschool and that showed in my scores. I went with 7 other people, and in all three games, I had the lowest score. Oh, and a tip, if you ever go to Sheridan Lanes, don't waste your time ordering a margarita, it was disgusting! Here's an action shot of Torrone:
