FabFitFun Editor's Box

Two posts in less than a week!  You guys must feel so special after my long absence in the fall.  If you follow my Twitter or read my last post, you may have seen that I ordered a FabFitFun box to reward myself for being 1/6^th of a lawyer and celebrate the start of a new semester.  I decided to post my review of the box on here because I thought it would be a nice break from all law school related posts and I’m thinking about expanding my blog to cover lifestyle in general, but still have a major focus on law school and how my lifestyle fits into that.  Just a disclaimer, this is not an advertisement, but I just wanted to share what I got in case you’re looking into buying one (or just looking for some good gift ideas for yourself!).

New Semester Resolutions

Resolution—“The determination or decision, in regard to its opinion or intention, of a deliberative or legislative body.”

-Black’s Law Dictionary

 

One week in to the new semester and I thought I’d give a brief summary of last semester and my goals for this semester!  At my school, we got our grades back the Friday before the semester started, which is just what you want to see right before classes begin again.  I didn’t do terribly overall, but it was definitely the lowest GPA I’ve ever had (not by much, I did a tiny bit better one semester in college, but by that point I had a high overall GPA).  That really stung since I was used to a particular level of achievement.  However, I had a mock interview this week with a practicing attorney and she told me that my current GPA is a good starting point because I can always increase my grades this semester now that I know how to work the law school system.

New Year, New Planner

Calendar—“The established order of the division of time into years, months, weeks, and days; or a systematic enumeration of such arrangement.”

-Black’s Law Dictionary

  

How ironic that my post about utilizing a planner comes after not sticking to my posting schedule!  I promise I will be better about posting this year and in this coming semester.  I didn’t realize how crazy busy I would get towards the end of last semester with my final memo and finals, but now I’m one-sixth of the way to having my JD!
