My Ward is on the News

Video: LDS vs FLDS. My Home Ward!!
So I was talking with my parents after Church today. They said they were at church back home in Houston, when the local news station showed up! They wanted to do a story about the difference between the LDS and the FLDS, I guess they were there in EQ/RS [...]

Endure to the End

It’s Wednesday night and I’ve completed my very last final. What a great feeling. Too bad it’s overpowered by the feeling of exhaustion. I have all summer and fall to go, and while I feel up for the marathon, this past week was a killer. I think I just wanted to be done with these [...]

Why men are rarely published in Dear Abby

Dear Abby,
I’ve never written to you before, but I really need your advice on what could be a crucial decision. I’ve suspected for some time now that my wife has been cheating on me.
The usual signs…phone rings, but if I answer, the caller hangs up. My wife has been going out with the girls a [...]

I believe in both Creationism/ID and Evolution

They’re not mutually exclusive.

I caught the last minute of a Wolf Blitzer interview with Ben Stein on CNN’s “The Situation Room”. Mr. Stein has come out with a documentary called Expelled; he said it addresses the persecution of teachers and students that stand up for Intelligent Design in academic settings. He brought up a quote [...]

FLDS Polygamy and Family Law

I am going to law school because I’m interested in family law. Divorce, mediation, child custody/advocacy, and visitation rights. So the unprecedented events in San Angelo Texas are completely fascinating to me. Unless you live under a rock, I’m sure you’ve heard about it so I won’t bother going over background. Google it if you [...]

Awful no good Day

Today was the biggest waste of time in the history of wasting time.

Strike 1: The Wrtiting Center take 1. I hate hate hate the writing center. I went in yesterday to get a paper looked at- I had to for a class. I actually didn’t have to wait for long before I was invited [...]

Practice LSAT take 1

So I sat for my first proctored practice LSAT this morning. Now, there is a bit of background to consider here. First, for law school admissions, your LSAT score can be/is even more weighted than your GPA! Yikes! Imagine- four years of college overshadowed by a four hour test. Ok so it’s important, got that? [...]

Monson’s words for me

Today was the last day of Student Development 198R: Law Lecture Series. This saddens me because it was my favorite. I learned a TON yet next to nothing was required of me. How can it get any better than that? Ironically it turns out to be the only class in which I had a perfect [...]

My Timeline: Now til Graduation

So here’s where I am in life… I’m headed toward law school and trying to get my ducks in a row. Right now I am in a law lecture series. Lawyers come speak to our class about their specialty: corporate law, criminal law, ACLU, legislature, etc. I’ve enjoyed the class immensely. I’d recommend it to [...]
