New Week

It's another Monday. *Sigh* I have so much crap to get done that I've been avoiding it. This weekend, I went to Lucie's first Birthday. She's such a cute little monster. It gives me hope about the future.

I have three weeks left in my law school career. A's getting sentimental, but I have a tendency to be a little less soft. I've been ready to finish school for a year...this 3rd year kinda felt like a waste of time. I'm sick of reading and briefing cases, I'm SO sick of getting called on in class, and I'm pretty much done with studying in general. I vowed, after this, no more formal schooling for me. After $150,000+ in debt now, I pretty much can't afford to go to school.

It's a little crazy when I think about what else I could have done with the money I spent on schooling. I could have bought a house, in some places in the U.S. I could have attempted to open my restaurant (a new goal I've had for 3 years - yes, ever since I started law school).

A side note - being engaged has put me in a little state of panic. I realized that marriage means responsibility. I'm not sure if I'm ready to take on that kind of responsibility in the sense that I won't be able to act young and carefree anymore. Being a student, I've been stuck at this perpetual 21/22 age. I don't know why, it doesn't make any sense, but marriage makes me feel like I have to "grow up."
