Virginia Tax Review 2006

I got accepted to the Virginia Tax Review yesterday! It's ranked in the top tax journals and is often cited in Law Reviews, so hurrah! We had a welcome reception tonight at Buddhist Biker Bar with food and an open bar.

I feel immense relief. The competition for everything here is so intense, and actually succeeding relative to so many gifted and hardworking people is huge.

Studying 2006

I'm back from break and I've been studying so much. As miserable as it is to study and outline constantly, I'm happier knowing that I'm giving law school my full effort. This weekend for example, I have gotten up at 9AM and only left my computer for short breaks to stretch out. I outlined 6 days of tax and am working on Constitutional Law right now. I went to bed at midnight last night when I couldn't concentrate on tax anymore and I will do the same thing tonight. Thought it was time for another reminder about the reality of the situation here and not just post the fun party pictures.
