First Year Summer Internship

Intern — “An advanced student or recent graduate who is apprenticing to gain practical experience before entering a specific profession."

-Black’s Law Dictionary

For this summer, I have the wonderful opportunity of interning with a judge in my hometown.  I’m currently in my fourth week of interning and I really enjoy the work that I am doing, along with the cases I get to observe.  The main types of cases he hears are custody cases, juvenile cases, and alternate courts that focus on rehabilitation, such as veteran’s court.  So, here are some of my tips on how to find a summer internship, to choose the right one for you, and to get the most out of this rewarding experience.

Officially a 2L!

Complete — “Brought to an end.”

-Merriam Webster’s Dictionary

I cannot believe I’m already done with my 1L year of law school!  I hope everyone else had a great end to the school year and a wonderful beginning of your summer.  Now that this semester is over and I’ve finally received my grades for the semester, I thought I’d reflect a little on my first year of law school as a whole. 

Finals Study Plan

Examination — “An exercise designed to examine progress or knowledge.”

-Merriam Webster’s Dictionary

 

With finals quickly approaching, (my first one is Friday!) I thought I’d share with you about how I prepare for my own finals.  This might be a shorter post since I’m knee deep in outlines, textbooks, and supplements to study for my finals. 

FabFitFun Spring 2017 Box

Review — “A critical evaluation.”

-Merriam Webster’s Dictionary

Yay, it’s that time again for another FabFitFun review!  Last time, I reviewed the Editor’s Box, which was the box for in between the Winter and Spring boxes, so this is the first seasonal box I received.  After opening my first box, I fell in love with FabFitFun and decided to become an annual member.  What exactly does that mean, you ask?  In exchange for purchasing a full year subscription upfront, you get a $20 discount (only $179 for the year instead of $49.99 a quarter), priority shipping, early access to Add-Ons, and, the best part, you get to pick the color or scent of two different items in your box!  In addition to these perks, all members now have the opportunity to use the Choice option, which allows members to pick between two items.  FFF tells you the brand and the item, but doesn’t give you a picture of the item, which is nice because you get to pick your preference but you still get some surprise of the item.  So let’s get into my review!
