Mid Mid-term Boredom = Some really cool finds

So I SHOULD be studying. But I took a facebook break ",.
And GUESS what I found. Well I didn't find it exactly. It sort of appeared on my home feed.
77 Ridiculous Pick Up Lines. Some are downright cute.
I was sitting in class at 3 a.m. and laughing my ass off to some of them.
In addition to having people look at me like I've finally cracked! :P

In Re: Lights, Camera, *ACTION*

So, to fully understand what I am referring, take out two minutes and visit www.lovelifeandlawschool.blogspot.com, and look at the most recent post, the one title Lights, Camera, *ACTION*.
Anyway,
So yes.
One of my crazy roommates thinks that the solution to the intense lack of drama in her life is to make my other roommate and poor ol' me take some drastic step.

Other roommate has already had a fail first attempt.
Which taught ME a valuable lesson about 'vicarious drama', and so I decided I shall not get my fingers burnt.

However I now find myself the victim of much persuasion, coaxing and cajoling to take the 'much-needed' step to inculcate drama in the lives of my erstwhile roommates.

Which I shall NOT. Because it involves certain risky, drastic actions on my part. Which I don't think I am ready to take. And which I also don't think will bring any drama whatsoever to their lives.

I have a deadline. Day after.
Not happening.
SO not happening..

You want drama love,
Watch a soap,
or do your own drastic thing (nothing spells drama like being the centre of attention of the latest scandal/gossip, does it now?)

You know you love me,
XOXO



I just could NOT resist the temptation to do that :P

Teach For India. Part II. The After.

So the earlier post was the Before.
This is the After.
(Like those cosmetic surgery ads. Not that I'm comparing the talk to cosmetic surgery. Just saying, you know).

Anyway,
SO I walked into the talk, thinking it'd be this big inspirational thing. Something that made you want to roll up your sleeves right then and there, march into a village and start teaching a group of kids whatever you know.

But.
It wasn't.

It was more of a, umm, how to be the saying..
well it was more like, oh we teach kids, we do this, we have people from all these cool places, and you can go on to these other places after 2 years and you ALSO get aid this much.
And it focussed on fellowships, nothing about internships or volunteer work.
So yes, a leetel, itsy bitsy bit disappointing. But no issues, the spirit of the whole movement is what I like, and the spirit it stays true to.

So, anyway, the guy asked us how we though education helped in social change. And the first thing that came to my mind was, it'll reduce the number of beggars in India. By a LOT.

You see, this is of great importance to me. I'm the one friend everyone has who usually empties whatever chillad she has in her pocket and gives it to the beggars. Especially old people and kids. Today too, we were having dinner, and this old lady came and was standing there looking at us. And something in my heart just twisted.

Nobody, I repeat NOBODY should have to forgo their dignity and beg to survive. Its just not done. No sir, not done at all. Its not right. And I know I sound like a bit of an idealist, okay, like one humongous idealist, but I really want the world to be the kind of place where people didn't have to beg.

And its not just about giving. Its about changing the situations which force them to mendicancy. People usually say 'ignore them. don't pay them any attention'. And I usually don't
I can't. How can you ignore them?
It may send them away from me. But it won't solve their problems.
They have a story. Stop and listen. More often than not, they never got the right education.

And THAT is where teach for India comes in. Its not about making leaders etc. and all the other jazz they use to get their corporate sponsorship.
Its about making sure these kids don't grow up to never know what its like to live with dignity.
Its about making sure that nobody ever is ignored again.
That they're heard.
Because this time when they raise their voice,
they won;t just be the 'undeserving poor', they'll be equals. Human beings living with equal dignity.
People we treat at par with ourselves.

And THAT is why I'm going to play my part in this movement.

<Just a thought>

Teach For India.

Yup. I'm going to go for the 'Teach for India' talk law school is holding in about 15 minutes.

The tagline for the poster type thing they'd out up was, enough talking, do something about it.
And while my last two posts have been along the more frivolous lines, this time I'm a little serious. I truly believe in the idea of teach for India, whats more I believe in their tag line.

They're right. Enough discussion, we need to do something about it. We need to get up, shake the dust off our clothes, leave our comfy homes and get dirty. We need to BE the change we eant to see, cliche as it may sound.
We need to DO something. And thats what I'm going to do now.
My first step towards doing something.

There's a reason why I came to law school. not only for the money, but more to make a difference in the world.
And its time we start doing things to make sure we make a difference as opposed to just saying we want to make a difference.

So here's to being the difference we want,
think about it.

Back. Again.

Hello,
So I'm back.
Yep, just a few hours after my first post. Sigh. I love all this enthu, but I'm hoping it lasts.
And I am soooo FAILING. I have History II, Pol Sci II, Property Law and Consti Law II. All beginning on Friday. And don't you DARE say they're easy courses, they are so NOT.

I've been watching FRIENDS. Friends, sigh. I wish that were my life. Pretty apartments (like the kinds me and my roomie want, where we can have twister night), Boys- the nice kind, the ones that make you go 'awww' (my favourite is Ross, he's soooo NERDY; yes I evidently have a thing for nerds), and general timepass in life.

But my life is full of summaries and readings and exams and projects and for this year, Moots.

To top it all, my Grooveshark doesn't work so well anymore. Aarrrgh. So what do I do now??

But the point of this post is that I'm BACK.
Again.

Crap. Its 2:30. And I don't want to sleep. Shit. I have class at 9. Gah.

Must sleep.
One sheep,
Two sheep,
Three sheep....

Nah. Doesn't work. So what do I do?
I want a meteor shower right about now. I'd love to go to the terrace and watch shooting stars. And wish for the resurrection of my social life.

Have I mentioned that I LOWE the terrace. My most profound conversations happen there. My drunken conversations ALSO happen there. And my generally high conversations happen there.

Oooh. I shall go to the terrace now. And I shall have one of the above types of conversations with my roomies. :)

Have I mentioned that I love my room. It has a red light. That gives this total Dev D. effect when you've very nicely placed yourself in the Stratosphere? Yup. Its awesome I tell you.

Law School does have its perks.

Quoting a friend of mine who's doing Uni in Amreeka-
'We study hard, but we party harder'.

Here's to some 'harder' partying once I survive the torture of the next ten days.

Until the next six hours or so...

Law school, Law school, Law school... tsk tsk tsk

Yes, Law school has damaged my social life for life (if that makes sense). Not that I had a really brilliant one to begin with. Still.

Anywhoooo,
I'm blogging. Again.
*three cheers*
Which is a good thing. Seeing as how I have so much free time on my hands , ESPECIALLY around project submission and exam time (which incidentally starts this Friday).
So yes, I shall blog, and blog I shall.

Although I must give credit to my roommate who inspired me. Thank you (you know who you are).

As for this blog, well it isn't exactly a day in the life of an average law student. Because,
a- A day-to-day update isn't exactly a piece of cake, face it I'm a law student, and I know we somehow have this insane ability to manage everything, but I'm STILL no Superman/woman!
and b- I've learnt, no law student is average. If anything there is no such thing as average when it comes to law students.

So,
I shall tell you about the experiences of yet another one of those 'types' in law school, and hopefully you identify, but I can assure you, this is anything but average.

Enjoy reading. At least when I'm trying to look at the brighter side of things. Like, ummm... no.. wait... ummm.. hmmm...
sorry,
that side doesn't EXIST.
