The last few days have been pretty gloomy-looking after the beautiful weather that we had over MLK weekend. It's even been raining. As much as I grumble about it when I'm outside, I'm glad it's raining. We're in a drought. We need the water. Because it's raining and because I'm a busy law student who's trying to keep up with an intense workload this semester, I've spent the better part of the last couple of days couped up in this building. At some point today, I decided that I wanted to get out of the Tower for a while. Packed up my baby laptop, my moot court research binder, and locked myself up in library for an hour and a half. Exciting, my life is. The plus is that I'm slowly making my way through all this homework. I'm almost done with Tuesday's assignments and hope to finish half of Wednesday's tonight (hope being the key word here).

I did watch my two Netflix movies. Chinatown and Pan's Labyrinth. As you might see, the initial weekend plan to watch one Oscar nominated movie this weekend kind of fell through. I got caught up in my work this morning my plan was to catch a matinee so it would be cheaper. Anyway, what really made me scratch this plan is that Dinah ended up winning tickets to that Department of Eagles show tomorrow night at the Cafe du Nord. I can stop sulking about being unable to go. I'm trying to be extra productive right now to make up for that. Anyway, I thought Chinatown was pretty good. I got kind of confused because I wasn't paying attention since I was way into the Enviro Law reading at the time (kind of fitting in a way). Watched Pans Labyrinth this morning and loved it, except I did not expect the movie to be so depressing. The music was so pretty. I don't know why they didn't win the Oscar for Original Score that year. I want to see the Hellboy movies now.

That's about it for now. After I finish briefing this case for Contracts I might go to the gym. It depends. I went four days so far this week and if I don't go today, I'll go tomorrow for sure. If I'm good, I might end up trying to see a movie this weekend after all, but I doubt it. Also, the weather right now calls for some ramen, but I've got to weed through leftovers and stuff first. Maybe tomorrow.
