Barrister's Ball 2006

I don't agree with where UVA puts the apostrophe in Barrister's Ball, but they do so very deliberately so I will follow along. It remains my position though that the ball is for all barristers so it should be the barristers' ball and that furthermore, this is the US so it should be the Attorneys' Prom or some such thing.

We had a preparty in Ivy Gardens. We took lots of prom style pictures of people with their dates, but I'm single for this party so I only care about the group picture.

Section B Pre-partiers

Jerry and Lauren- our section couple*

We all squeezed into a van-taxi so we wouldn't have to drive.

I have my ticket!

Thanksgiving 2005

I stayed in Charlottesville for Thanksgiving. I'm becoming more and more overwhelmed as we get closer to finals. That's why I decided not to make the trip up for Thanksgiving. For most of the weekend, I was buried in a Torts outline. I should currently be buried in a Criminal Law outline but I can't make heads or tails of the subject so I'm procrastinating instead.

I invited my parents to come down here, but they weren't too sure because I had to study and because they were already trying to avoid traveling to the Cape, so an even longer drive to Charlottesville didn't beckon them.

I didn't miss out on Thanksgiving dinner though- in fact, we had two! Sunday, the 20th, we had a section Thanksgiving Potluck Dinner at 6:30 at Jane's apartment. The section dues provided the turkey and everyone else brought sides and desserts. Brian actually cooked the turkey which is brave.

I didn't take any pictures- so here's a good one of Lauren, Jane, and Brian from before

Then on the actual day of Thanksgiving, Joe got the Harris Teeter Thanksgiving meal package and fed the few people from my section who stayed here: Aaron, Audra, Jerry, Josh G, Justin, Aaron, and Nathan. Jerry brought pie and the rest of us brought alcohol.
