I am finally getting used to having multiple deadlines every week. As a 1L I had to get used to going an entire semester without having many deadlines. Sure I had a mind numbingly dull Legal Research assignment that was due on weekly basis and several Memos/Briefs due each semester in Reasoning, Writing and Advocacy (RWA), but for the most part any other deadlines I had were self imposed. But as I mentioned in my previous post, I now have multiple assignments due each week. This week my primary projects are a 5+ page outline of my Law Review note and the beginning of graded oral arguments in Moot Court. Thankfully, I don’t have any extra due in Lawyering Skills this week.
I typically spend my time working on these assignments in the Bowen Law Library. This semester I have my own private study carrel in the library, which I typically refer to as my office. I tend to do the majority of my studying in here but I also use it as a locker for the majority of my books and school supplies. I even have some snacks stored up for a rainy day. Does anyone like Sundried Tomato & Basil Wheat Thins? (I don’t store my laptop in here though, so don’t get any bright ideas!) Check out another Bowen Blogger’s post on his study carrel to see a picture of an office similar to mine.
In any event, I probably should get back to work on this outline.
