I didn't get to school until 8am this morning. There's no way I can get all of the reading done for my Race and the Law class in 2 hours - so fuck it. For the first time in my law school career I'll be going to class completely unprepared. I'm not happy about it, but there's no way I can get all of it done. There's just way too much. And I'm way too tired to concentrate on something like that. I'll tell the Professor that I lost the packet or some other lame excuse and hope I don't get penalized for it. In most other classes, I wouldn't be too freaked about not doing the reading because the chance of getting called on that day would be statistically low. But there are only 9 people in the class, which means I'll get called on several times today.

I'm also using every fiber of my being just to try to keep my eyes open. I got about an hour and a half of sleep last night. I went to bed around 11:30pm, but I didn't fall asleep until around 3:30am. I don't know why - I was extremely tired, but I could not get myself to fall asleep. Even a Unisom didn't work. Maybe I was worried about not getting any work done yesterday. *shrugs* All I know is that this will make the next few days that much harder. I'm going to have a ton and a half of work to get done and won't be able to get a lot of sleep. I was counting on a good night's sleep last night so I wouldn't pass out this weekend. Now I have to worry about being awake enough to work and not having time enough to sleep. I hate my life. Looks like I'll be popping a few Vivarin with a Red Bull or two before my first class this morning. I know it's not good for me, especially with my heart condition, but I /can't/ fall asleep in class. Now are you beginning to see why I'm begging those who care about me to shoot me?

On the bright side, I got here early enough this morning to get a spot in the law school parking lot at the top of the hill. It's the closest lot to the school (still a bit of a walk) and it keeps filling up way early in the morning. That's cause we have an infestation of first year students (like double the normal amount) and the asshole undergrads are parking there as well even though they're not suppossed to. Of course Public Safety doesn't ticket or tow them - they just to that to the law school students who park where they're not allowed. This school really bites ass sometimes.

Anyway, it looks like this weekend will be me doing a whole lot of school related crap. I'm going to have a lot of reading to get done and I have to do my opening statement. I'm going to try to fit a few fun things in there (maybe a Friday night movie at the Nuart - they're playing Ferris Bueller, and maybe a trip to a costume shop) and try to get some practical things done as well (I need a new suit). But we'll see. There's only so much time in the weekend - and I'm going to need every minute of it.

This is kind of cool. If I was a fairy I'd be:

Congratulations, you're a Dinnshencha, a feminist fae.
What kind of female faerie are you?
