Cheery

I don't mean for all of my posts here to be so dour. I seem to write when I'm ruminating over the choices I need to make in my life. I'm actually generally fairly happy. I've enjoyed my experiences here in law school, and I have a great group of friends that I'm fairly certain I've made for life. We make a point of cooking dinner for each other every Thursday night to decompress. I have access to the campus swimming pool, I have a lovely little cottage all to myself, I occasionally have time to paint and bake. I go on mini-vacations, get to explore Eugene, Portland, the Oregon Coast. In January some law buddies and I are going to Vegas. I'm surrounded by witty people who make me laugh. I have my own desk in the law review office (probably one of the highlights of my year, as silly as it sounds!) My life is actually pretty blessed. It's just these damned choices that keep popping up that I feel compelled to document. I'll try to make a point of posting more about the things that keep me going, and that make me happy there are lots of them.
