**Second Year** is done for me. So’s my **140 page** law review article. **Gadarene** , enjoy your summer. Hit the beach. Breathe. Read a novel that has nothing to do with law. Enjoy your summer job if you have one. See a movie if you don’t. Hope your grades were good. Hope you made law review. Around July, read Scott Turow’s _One-L_ to diffuse and reflect on your first year. Oh, and breathe. I can’t say that enough. ---

:: grumble, grumble :: Darn southern hemisphere semesters. I won’t be outta law school for another… 16 academic weeks. ☹ But then that’s it for me! ‘Grats to you guys on finishing first year! Believe me - the next few years will fly by. They’ll be done and gone and you’ll be missing the good ol’ days before you know it. ---

> [@](#): > > How’d the evil Civ Pro final go? We’ll never know, since 1) he refuses to release answers to past multiplie-choice questions, and 2) I strongly suspect that he determines the grades using a random-number generator. 🙂 Thanks for the support, everyone–and congratulations, **RIL** , **Max** , and **pravnik** (and preemptively to **Narrad** ). **vix** , I’ll be there tomorrow! ---

Jesus…time flies. I graduated 2 years ago. And you know what I’m doing?? Studying for ANOTHER bar exam. I passed Illinois about 2 years ago and now I’m studying for the October Patent Bar Exam. Someone. Please. Shoot. Me. Tibs. CONGRATS on being done with that first year. Hell, I was relieved.
