Book Club



On top of everything else I have going on, I joined a book club. Last week was the first time I met with the girls and it was a lot of fun. We read the book "Room" by Emma Donoghue and we met at IKEA because the book was about a room. I highly recommend the book. One of my goals for the new year is to read one non-law school book a month and I figured a book club would keep me on track.

Next month, we are discussing "The Help" by Kathryn Sackett. I hope its good!

Pirates!!!


Once I was back in Houston, life went back to normal. I went back to work, bought my books for school, and tried to relax as much as possible. One of the things my roommate and I did was to go see the Pirate exhibit at the Museum of Natural Science. It was such a cool exhibit and I learned a lot about pirates. I had a great time learning and its always nice to do something different. I couldn't take pictures of the exhibit but if the Pirate exhibit comes to your neck of the woods, I highly recommend it!

Christmas Vacation- part 3

This year for New Years, I went with a few of my friends to The Hyatt O'Hare. They had an 80s cover band playing, a pretend casino, and a Dj dance floor. We stayed at the hotel, which ended up costing us extra $$$ but it was worth it because at the end of the night, we just took the elevator up to our room! It was a fun evening and a great way to ring in 2011!
Here are a few pictures from the night-
Snooki was at the party (or maybe just a look alike) And just a side note, the outfits I saw throughout the night amazed me. Perhaps I'm too old to be hanging out with people in their early 20s because I would never wear some of the things I saw!
This guy and a few of his friends just started break dancing in the middle of the hotel
The Band!!!
And the countdown! Happy New Year!!!!
Now I'm all caught up on my blogging. School starts on Tuesday and my life will be over for a while. I'm taking a clinic and got a job at a law firm and still working at Williams Sonoma. I might just be crazy!
