First Week of Law School

Well, I seem to have survived my first eight days of law school. Sorry I haven't been able to post anything in a while, but life is good. Sarah and I are happy here in DC, and we are both staying really busy. Right now I am taking Criminal Law, Civil Procedure, Torts, Contracts, and a Writing Class. So we're doing great for now, but I can only imagine that school is going to get more and more busy as the semester goes on. See ya.

The New Desk (my home away from home)

So here is the new desk that Sarah and I set up a few days ago. I figure I will be spending a lot of time here over the next three years, so it deserves its own post. Law school starts on Monday, so I'm sure we'll have plenty of time to get acquainted.

We have moved in!

We are officially moved in to our new place. Plus we finally have furniture to sit on. We have our nice couch and love seat, and we have also fixed up the kitchen and the bedroom a bit. I added a few pictures so you could see what everything looks like. Sarah and I are so happy to be in our new home. Feel free to come by and check it out if you're in our neighborhood.

Ryan's Downward Spiral

I suppose the long hours of no job and no school are finally getting the better of me. I realized this when I spent a few hours the other night making blueberry scones with a "zesty" lemon glaze. I suppose that is a pretty good indicator that I need to get back to more of a routine schedule. On the plus side, the scones were delicious. Maybe I could bake up a batch for my law school professors for the first day of class.

The End of Independent Study

I am done with Independent Study forever!!!!!!!! Hooray!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That is all. :0)

Pictures of Our New Apartment (with someone else's stuff in it)

Here are some photos of our new place. We took these when we signed the contract, so the owner's stuff is still inside it. The place is really nice. It's called the Cardinal House in Arlington, VA, and it is about ten minute's walk from the metro that I will need to take to school. We are planning on moving in sometime next week, so we'll put up some more pictures later on.

We have a front porch (sort of)! Since our apartment is on the ground floor, we have our own entrance to the place. There's even an area where we can sit outside and grill when we want to.

The kitchen is pretty nice. It's recently been redone with new countertops, cabinets, and appliances.
The bathroom has also recently been redone, and has some pretty sweet stonework inside the shower. We are really excited about moving in and having our own place again. Although I will miss the Wii/Playstation 2/XBox at Sarah's house. That new Mario Kart game is incredibly addictive.

No money, Mo' problems

Hey folks. Sorry I haven't put much on the blog lately. My computer died, so I am waiting for my Iranian friend at the Computer Clinic to fix everything so I can start working on it again. As for exciting news, Sarah and I now have an apartment, as well as a couch and a love seat. Although we may not have any money, we have a place to sleep, and a place to watch TV. Woohoo!
