Underestimating

Well looks like once again the assignment has been underestimated. As a group we need to come up with a powerpoint presentation, it isn't required but most of the groups have one. One of the group members’s suggested not to make one. Well from my previous experiences when the majority of the class does something, that pretty much sets the bar for the entire class, hence a powerpoint presentation is required to get a good grade. Oh and since I need the grades for law school, I had to jump into the opportunity. Looks like I'm doing the powerpoint presentation in addition to the outline, in addition to the 2,000 word paper. Great looks like I have a lot more work to do for Thursday.

There is something else that has been bothering for the past day or two heck for the past month. I haven't seen her or heard from her again, man I miss that look, that smile, her smell...man I'm going mad. I know it has already been sometime and I should have already forgotten about her but I cannot. I don't like to admit to any of this but this is my log so I will. Damn one part of me wishes that I had never met her, another part wishes for those good times. I hate talking about this crap I better go to bed. I should be better once I get some sleep.

Eureka I Have Found It!!!!!!

I came from class last night at about 8 pm, first thing I do when I come home I look for something to eat. I usually have premade spaghetti sauce that I buy from the market. Yesterday was different. It seems that I had run out so I begin to scan the refrigerator up and down looking for something to eat. Well I found tomatoes, so I said to myself, I think I can make my own spaghetti sauce. As look in the cabinets I find basil, salt, pepper, garlic and olive oil. I then chop the garlic, cut the mushrooms and boil the pasta. The outcome surprised me it was the best pasta sauce I have ever tasted. I sit in the living room next to my roommate I tell him, dude you have to try this. Well he loved it. I guess this is how those Coca-Cola guys felt when they invented their Coca-Cola.

Day's Objective Archived

I finally finished my part for my presentation on Thursday. I think the professor will find it quite interesting. Although I still have to elaborate on the facts and also beef up my conclusion. It is due Thursday so I think I can finish it in one more night.

There is something that I have been pondering for the past couple of days, I been reading a novel about a lawyer working on a big top law firm. I know this novel is fiction but I tend to only analyze the reality of it. Well in the novel there was a paragraph were it said that during court the prosecution’s job is to prove the client is guilty, where ‘as the defense only states the facts and occurrences that show otherwise. Now to my dilemma, what if the client is guilty? When the client is guilty the defense cannot really state the facts and occurrences because it will be aiding the prosecution. My conclusion is that when the client is guilty the defense brings forth dough to the court room's jury that there were some discrepancies in the investigation or any sign of wrong doing or violation of human rights. Hence the statement a person is innocent until proven guilty beyond any reasonable dough in a court of law. I guess this is how O.J. Simpson went free.

Now was O.J. Simpson’s lawyer a good lawyer? I mean everyone knows that he did it. It was proven in the civil case. I think O.J.'s lawyer did his job, a very good job that is. A lawyer's job isn't to punish the guilty, their job is to bring forth facts that there was some wrong doing, in this case there was. It is sad but it is true. The lawyer proved that there was reasonable dough that he didn’t do it therefore the jury could not submit a guilty verdict.
Well I’m of to bed now, I have so much stuff to do tomorrow...

I'm so lazy

I have a couple of projects to work on, I haven't really put as much time as I should. I have a project along with a presentation on Thursday I have the topic, but I really haven't started doing my research. The topic that my group chose is stupid, but when working in group the majority rules so it couldn't be changed. I will finish my part before the day ends today.

My senior project is going ok I guess, my partner changed some of the plans to our project. I guess now we are going to use 2 servo motors in addition to four DC motors that we had purchased. This will add more weight and cost to our project along with putting more strain on the DC motors. My partner should have consulted the group before this change, but it was too late when I found out about it. He had already modified the project so I couldn't do anything about it.

I'm still disappointed that I didn't get the judicial internship that I interviewed for. I went to see the professor on Monday at 5:50. I asked him what happened, How come I didn't get an e-mail letting me know if I got in or not. He told me that he had no idea if I got in or not. I went to class right after that. I have class from 6-7:15, went to the lab as soon as the lecture ended to work on my lab that was due. I checked my e-mail and I just happened to get an e-mail about the internship. Well I didn't get the job, then I thought what kind of people e-mail someone this late in regards to a job. I think the professor went back to department, after I spoke with him , and told the secretary to e-mail me to let me know. I want to ask the professor why didn't I get it but I don't want to put myself in a weird situation.

Delaying law school for a year sucks, I don't want to but I think I have to. Now that I think about it, this will relive me of some stress that I have currently. Studying for the LSAT isn't easy. Me having a technical background, I have found it to be slightly more difficult. I think I will do well on the logic games and logic reasoning, but the reading comprehension, that's going to be dreadful. I do have to get faster on the logic games though, they take time and if I spend to much time on them, I will be regretting it once I see my test score.

First Entry

Its Friday, I have been contemplating on delaying law school for a year since the school that I am applying for has a good national ranking. This year will give me more time to study for the LSAT and and I will also try to get my GPA back to were it is reasonable, this year will also give me some time to raise more money for law school. As of today I have $190 dollars in my checking and savings account combined, actually about $170 I just spent $20 on groceries.
I been reading a lot more lately, which is good, I don't go out anymore. I have given up, I have accepted it. This is going to be my life for the next five years. I want to start law school already but I don't know what I should do. I want to rush to law school because I think I am getting old. People would say that 26 isn't old but it feels like it is.
