elle-at-law @ellewoodsjr - Tumblr Blog

So I basically abandoned this blog like halfway thru 1L and am just logging on to tell y'all I didn't find a 1L summer position, struck out during 2L OCIs but then found a 2L summer position on my own, landed an articling position thru the 3L recruitment, finished law school, graduated, got my JD, wrote and passed the bar exams on the first try, am currently working in my articling position and it's a dream, and I'll be called to the bar next June. Hollaaaaaa

BACK TO SCHOOL GIVEAWAY 1: Leuchtturm1917

If you’ve spent 2 minutes browsing the Studyblr community, you will have read about bullet journaling. Since high school, I’ve loved the traditional planner style, but I’ve been converted to the bullet journal style of planning and notetaking. Not only can you exercise your creative muscles when creating pages tailored to your needs, but you can combine your to-do lists and tasks in one place.

Kindly, Leuchtturm1917 sent me this dotted notebook to transform into the bullet journal of my dreams and review for you all. The notebook contains 251 numbered pages, a table of contents, and 12 perforated sheets at the back - perfect for sharing notes with your classmates. The 2 page markers make it really easy to find your most-used pages, and there is also an expandable pocket at the back to store loose pieces of paper.

I’ve spent the last few days setting up this bujo for my upcoming Masters course, and I’m so excited to share them with you. I’m quite minimalistic when it comes to my weekly spreads - I know that I won’t have much time to make them really elaborate and decorative, so I’ve kept the weekly spread down to the basics. On the left-hand box is the events I’ve got that day, and on the right is a space for all of my tasks to do that day. Once I’m at university, I might find that I need to change the layout slightly to allow for more space for to-do’s, but that’s the beauty of a bullet journal - you can adapt to changes so easily! Whilst it’s great to admire the artistic talent of the amazing bujo’s shared in the community, remember that it does need to be functional and practical above all.

I’ve also included really useful pages. I found this essay-writing advice on Tumblr a while ago (I apologise for not crediting the original author - I couldn’t find it), and thought it would be really helpful to have it written out in my bullet journal so I can reference it when writing essays.

Constantly torn between “I can’t ask for help bc then I’m annoying and everyone will be mad” and “I must ask for help at every possible stage because I might do it wrong and then everyone will be mad” ya feel

my entire life changed when my dentist told me that the only time my teeth should be touching is when i’m chewing. every single time my teeth are touching i have to separate them. and i noticed that i clench my teeth a LOT.

when your mouth is closed and your teeth are touching or held tightly together, you are unnecessarily straining muscles out of stress. the healthiest way to hold your jaw is slightly apart, where it is relaxed. THIS HELPS WITH HEADACHES

I unclenched my jaw upon reading this.

Deregulation strikes again.

“Free market” capitalism does NOT care about raging forest fires, it does not care about endangering firefighters, it does not care about people dying due to lack of healthcare insurance. Unregulated capatilism cares only about making profits, apparently at any and all costs.

why do law school white guys think their reagan capitalism is so groundbreaking and clever when actually they are like magic 8 balls with their 4 same ass boring arguments

newsflash: you are boring. your friends are boring, your dad is boring, your grandpa boring, in conclusion:
