I submitted my thesis today, 2 days before the drop-dead last deadline. Phew. So, I should get a little paper certificate eventually that says I have a M.S. in computer science from University of Illinois.
If you are a masochist, you could read it. If you’re a sadist, you could make someone else read it.

GW Law Prof. #1 tells GW Law Prof. #2 that a GW Law Student has been Blogging about Prof. #2’s Civ Pro class. GW Law Prof. #2 surreptitiously calls out GW Law Student on the last day of class. Read the story from GW Law Prof. #1’s point of view, or from GW Law […]

Moot Court FYC FINAL Results by […]

…. Because I didn’t make it past the first round of the Grand Ol’ Moot Court First Year Competition (FYC). I’m crying inside. Anyhow, I’ve already put my hard-earned free time to work doing something barely useful.
Below is a table showing the outcomes, by count and percentages, of the first round of the […]

So, the Journal Competition was this weekend. That means I had 250 pages to read and then write about, with full citations from The Bluebook. So, of course I began the weekend by going to Ikea and buying a new table, study cart, and (on sunday, ’cause they were out of stock) a new desk. […]

Prof is saying that when balancing the […]

Heard elections results just before I left the school last night; I am now the section 14 SBA rep. Be on the lookout for a section 14 blog and mailing list.
The IMF and World Bank are having a meeting at their DC headquarters this weekend. Since the buildings are right across the street from the […]

So, I’m sure you’re all eager to here the result of yesterday’s election. Well, the results were inconclusive. Apparently nobody got the over 40% of the vote that is required to win. But Tiffany and I got enough votes to make it to the runoff. That’s a small measure of success. The runoff is taking […]
