Straight from the O'Quinn Law Library

Hello all! I haven't written in...over a month it seems. I apologize. Yes, I really have been that busy.

The flight back from Japan went really well and I was lovingly welcomed home by my whole family (minus Mandy, but she was very happy to see me when I made it back to the house). I was in the Woodlands for a week, buying books, getting ready for school, and semi-preparing my stuff for the Houston house. It was a nice semi-down time back at home.

Me and my parents. What on earth are we looking at? And yes, we did get Tex-Mex (from Adobe) my first day back.

That weekend I went on a weekend getaway to San Marcos/Austin with my parents. This is around Texas State. Woohoo! TEXAS!

Awww MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANDY! I can't stand it. :D

Exactly one week from when I got off the plane, I got on another one -- I was headed for Michigan where Tim was living this summer working an internship for Dow. We had a blast. The day I got there we went to Detroit and stayed the night there. We went to a Tiger's game, got seriously thick Chicago-style deep dish pizza in Greek Town, and I walked through my first casino.

(happy!)

Not the best picture, but you get the idea. That was...a lot of cheese.

The next day we went to the Ford Musuem, which should have its own post full of pictures it was that good. Actually, the rest of our trip really deserves more attention than I can give it right now because I have so many good pictures to post! Look for that soon.

Now on to law school...

I am a week and a half into my first year as a law student (or 1L). I LOVE it so far! There are so many things that make me happy about being in the States, Houston, and school again. I have some advice and thoughts to write about, but with my first class of the day being in less than an hour and a half and still having to prepare some work for it, I better stop procrastinating.

I really want this blog to be as successful as it was as my Japan blog, so I will try to dedicate some time to it from now on.

That said, I must dive right back into the world of Contracts. Good bye!

I love that you updated your brog! And also, thanks for telling me! I don't think I would have bothered checking at at least another week.

Mary, I am so happy to hear that you love being back in school!! Haha, just because I think law sounds like a horrible subject of study doesn't mean that *everyone does* (I'm so bad). But, I'm glad that the "I miss Japan" hasn't set in (however I'm sure you live with the "I miss NASU" everyday. Ganbatte!).

Also, Mary, I love you so much, but I need to be honest. No matter how many exclamation points you slap on the end of " I must dive right back into the world of Contracts"...it's just not going to make it sound interesting.

:P
Love
