Next week I'll order my baby, my pride and joy.

I think I'll call her keira. I spend a good portion of my day staring at her...and going over her specs.
I'll be taking her with me to Cairo. CAIRO! Less than a month! I'm in the process of getting shots, visas and money! So excited and kinda intimidated. I speak very little arabic, and even less colloquial. This isnt like the trip to spain. That was only a month and a half...and I could speak the language. Insha allah, everything will work out.
I love my internship. It's a DA's office in a small town but the people are super sweet and really on top of their ish. I mostly do secretary stuff because...well I'm an undergrad but it's still pretty great.
Kinda related, I have acquired an incredibly inappropriate crush on a completely inappropriate individual. I mean, he's not inappropriate but that whole thing....is just...wrong. I can't help it :) Rivkah and her older guy thing may be contagious, yes babe I just called you out !! I mean he is REALLY too old. I will endeavor to keep my inappropriate feelings to my inappropriate self.
I'm so optimistic about the future. Definitely going to law school, hopefully in NC. Being a trial lawyer doesnt seem so bad. I mean, they dont make a lot of money but it's not about the money, right?

Family Vacay, Class registration and the wait
Am currently in FL...it's hot...
I took the arabic placement test and thought about taking it a second time (they take the highest score) but I didnt. Instead, I chilled with the girls (for nellie's birthday) had a sippy sip and let all that crap from the lsat, gillman and the placement test roll off.
Speaking of which, I get news about the lsat and gillman (scholarship I got waitlisted for) the 26th. The good news is I placed into arabic 103 which friggin rocks because that test was A.BEAST. That plus the fact that (per ipos request) I didnt try to guess when I didnt understand made me pretty insecure about the whole thing. Whatever, I'm a baller. Yes, LSAC no matter the score...I am a baller.
Class for fall 2009 if I'm lucky
Comparative politics of the middle east
Government and Politics of Egypt
Muslim Political Thought
The Making of the Modern Arab World
Arabic 103 (done)
YAY!
