Last week I started my paralegal internship at my cousin's law firm, Burnett&Williams. I'm usually really nervous before I start new things. I get nauseous and have butterflies in my stomach, but for some reason I woke up and wasn't nervous at all my first day! My cousin, well my mom's cousin, so he'd be my 2nd cousin -- his name is JIM. Jim has 4 other offices around Virginia, but I'm working at his Midlothian location. It's small ....and I like it that way! I'm also comfortable knowing that he is there to guide me along. His lawfirm is solely personal injury, so right now I'm doing the not so exciting stuff, "medical chronologies." Basically I am putting together all the medical reports and summarizing all the medical terminology. BORING! However, I get to go to court with him next week and he's going to have me calling witnesses, interviewing them, sending out subpoenas etc. I'm pretty excited... I really want to do well since I've spent the last 2 years studying this stuff! I go in every Monday/Wednesday/Friday and I'm looking forward to these next few months. Cross your fingers he offers me a job!
Nowwwwww that I'm working in a law office means I have to start looking more PROFESSIONAL. This past weekend I spent A LOT of money in Anne Taylor Loft. I ended up getting an Anne Taylor card because I bought some pants, tops, and a SUIT. Wow. Speaking of suits, I did not realize how EXPENSIVE THEY ARE! Luckily I got the jacket on sale this past weekend but when I went to The Limited to look for a suit, the jacket itself was $158!! WhO pAyS thAT?! Even though I was sick and tired of trying on clothes by the end of the day, I had fun getting some new business like apparel.
If my friends saw me at the office, they would probably tell me how grown up I look.
Well enough about my internship. I came home and was rushing to get to class only to find out it was canceled. Luckily I checked my e-mail before I walked out there. But then something else caught me on perezhilton.com ................................
JOHN MAYER IS ON THE COVER OF ROLLING STONE!!!!!!!!!!!!
today is exactly 1 MONTH until I get to see him in DC. The last time he toured was 2008 soooooo I'm super excited. I'm also going to see him in Charlottesville March 16th with my parents. Our seats are AWESOME --maybe he'll even spot me in the crowd and have his body guard escort me back to his bus =)
this picture made my day so I hope you all enjoy!
