Orientation

So this week was my first week @ law school. I don't have a ton to say about it cause I'm generally just really excited to get started but here goes.

School Book Scam

This is something I've noticed throughout my undergraduate tenure, and seems to also be incredibly prevalent in law school as well. There is a serious issue with both how textbooks are assigned/used, and how insanely expensive they are. Well, I've got some solutions that should make everyone (except a select few groups who are massively over-profiting from the current system). Why can't we do this?

License, Registration, and Hanging some Fans

So in the last couple days we've gotten our new driver's licenses, and spent a bucket of money on some ceiling fans. Throughout this I've noticed some things that are done a little better here, become freakishly annoyed with my credit card company, and learned that the people who create the instruction manuals for installing ceiling fans are either completely incompetent, or diabolically evil. The jury is still out on that one.

5 Years

Where do you see yourself in 5 years? It's that dreaded interview question that I always wanted to answer with "ever see 'Leaving Las Vegas', I'm thinking of going the Cage route". (For those who haven't seen it, just watch the damn movie, probably the best 'ol Nicholas Coppola has ever done). Well 5 years ago today I took the big plunge and married the most wonderful person I have ever known. This milestone kind of got me thinking, what would the me today say to the me of 5 years ago.

Buying a House and Moving Away

So as I said in my last post, I had some other things to say that probably deserved their own. Well here goes. Today it's all about buying a house and moving across country. Hopefully some of this stuff can help anyone who is thinking about doing either or both of these things for the first time.
