Hi.
Up to my ears in alligators right now...But, doing some neat stuff!
Coming up on my first half-year
I am coming up on my 1/2 year anniversary of law school (it took about that long to get in by the way). I am not where I *should* be in my studies, but I do have balance in the various areas of my life that require time.
Part of my time has also been spent keeping myself entrenched in technology. I have been working on JavaScript, java, Linux, multimedia items, and my love mobile computing. If I were in another life, I would be at the MIT Media lab.
Topic Maps and the Law
I shared putting law into topic maps with my legal research instructor. It seemed appealing to him. I am reconstructing my first 1/2 year in law school now (making my course outline), and part of that is going to be a topic map. That will be neat....
The Baby Bar
I am going to be able to satisfy geek and law in one fell swoop. The time that I have been spending on my technology update will be applied in helping my studies. I will be able to keep my hands in the technology while preparing for the "FIRST YEAR LAW STUDENTS EXAM" --- The "Baby Bar".
If I do not make the Baby Bar, I do not go on... It is a bar that must be passed.
Nervous? Ah, yeah! But...
I usually do pretty good at these things though. I just hope that I remember all the key elements of the law so that I can apply the fact patterns in ways that earn points. The more points you get for each question, the better off you are in the long run.
I just wish I could have my Side Kick with me, my extended brain...
Anywho, got to get!
l8rs,
