4 Things You Must Do After Finals

May 18, 2017

Congratulations on making it through finals! <3 You earned yourself some much-needed time off. But before you can go traipsing off on worldly travels, you need to get a few things handled first: SAVE your DATA! You worked so hard all year. Prepare for the worst! What if your computer crashes forever? Mine did right before midterms. Thankfully, I didn’t panic. I save everything important to dropbox and to the Sharepoint…

Splurging Is Good for the Soul

May 7, 2017

The beau’s brother introduced me to SOYLENT 2.0. We ordered 12 bottles of Nectar flavor. It tastes like fruity pebbles milk, or a melted strawberry milk shake. I didn’t think it was all bad, but it certainly is a different taste. The aftertaste is great, which is nice – because meal replacement shakes (in my experience) aren’t always so kind to my tastebuds. Skeptical though I was, I gave this nutrient-rich,…

The Night Before Your Final

May 6, 2017

The week before Finals is stressful. Deadlines. Meetings. Coffee Runs. Mentor Lunches. Dinner with your neglected significant other. But now, everything feels like you’re moving in slow motion; no class means you have time to binge-watch every episode of all your favorite shows, which you’ve dutifully ignored and tended to your reading all semester. Right? Now, here you are, the night before your exam. I really hope you studied. In fact,…

5 Tips for a Great Study Space

May 5, 2017

  Sometimes [ok, more often than I care to count] I find myself procrastinating. I think we all do it, from time to time. One of my best friends says she “can’t seem to study until the entire house is clean, [she’s] prepped her next three meals, and there’s nothing left to distract her.” Another one of my law school besties forces herself to come to the library because then…

Let Me PUMP You UP!

May 3, 2017

  Finals week arrived. It was inevitable. I’m not quite sure where the time went. Can you believe it’s been a year? This 1L is nearly finished. And, well, I don’t know about you – but I am exhausted. I completely understand how tired you are. Tired of reading, writing, and thinking. I get it. Your classmates get it. Trust me. Everyone feels like a squished lemon, completely out of juice….

On Sundays, We Meal Prep

April 17, 2017

Last month, the ABA sponsored a Mental Health Day. At UNT Dallas College of Law, the faculty and staff made a HUGE effort to focus on the importance of total-body wellness; Camp Gladiator visited and signed us up for CAMP!  I was super honest up front and told the trainer that unless the Beau could come, there was just no way this derriere would find its way to an outdoor gym.   …

Meal Prep for the Busy Law Student

April 13, 2017

Usually, I meal prep on Sunday. However, I was quite disenchanted with the mere thought of cooking then, and the kitchen passion didn’t quite hit me Tuesday, or today either, hence – I continued to procrastinate. [law school daze, right] Put if off until tomorrow…I was happy with this decision. Until I opened the fridge in the morning to pack my lunch and realized – I didn’t have lunch! Well, damn. Joke’s…

Law School Depression: Grades & Guidance

April 9, 2017

THIS read made me realize how lucky I am. This semester has been grueling (more-so than last semester) for many reasons – but not one of those reasons stems from feeling alone. In fact, for my wonderful classmates who read this blog (and for those peers far and wide going through the same law school struggle) please know there are resources available for you. Talk to student services at your school. Reach out…

How to Prep Your Oral Argument

April 7, 2017

You’ve been chugging along, gobbling up every nugget of wisdom the professors have to offer. Everything is ok. You’re fine. Law school is finally feeling right and then – POW! Your first oral argument comes bounding around the corner and you have no freaking clue what to do. This is the point where you realize one of two things: 1) Well damn. I don’t like to speak to crowds and this is…

Best Damn Cheesesteaks

March 28, 2017

      I rarely get to post recipes anymore. This cheesesteak post was a long time coming, too. I made these for the Beau and his besties for boys night a while back. They gave rave reviews and demanded I make them again soon. These Philly cheesesteaks are so easy to MAKE! They’ll taste like they took forever, but you’ll have them on the table in under 45 minutes.  Truly,…
