Can you guys actually believe it? Like Jeff's MSN says: We're half a lawyer... well sort of.
This exam season was brutal (completely ruining the holiday season... for the most part). With 2 exams on the last two days there was not much time to actually enjoy oneself. But one thing was sure... December 21st was dedicated to the forgetting that the past 3 weeks had ever happened. With Evidence being the last exam for many of us and most of us dispearsing to different parts of the country either that same night or within the next few days we had more then enough reasons to go out and have a blast.
Post exam the drinking began at Koerners with a steady flow of beer. That was followed up by dinner at Banana Leaf (for some of us) and for others the Jolly Alderman and various other venues. Eventually a decent group of us ended up at Lolas till the wee-morning hours of closing time.
That left a mere 2-3 days to get all of Christmas organized... - well I guess we're law students capable of functioning under pressure!
Happy Holidays to all you guys!!! Enjoy your time off (before hell breaks loose again)! Have a great New Year! And well - congrats on being half a lawyer!

We originally had plans to go out for dinner to Banana Leaf but couldn't get reservations since supposedly everything was packed. Not even two tables of 4. The hostess was actually quite desperate to get rid of me over the phone. Well... we showed up with 6 to wait for the rest which thought that we'd be eating there. Figured we'd check if we could get anything. And well... wouldn't you know, they had a table of six free... a table that actually ended up fitting 8 easily. But somehow 2 more ended up showing up and we got escoreted to the VIP room with a table for 10. Who'd know that without reservations in a fully booked restaurant you'd get treatement like that. And the food was truly excellent!!!!!

The RHINOS First Rugby Game!!!!!!
Some statistics:
Number of years Rhions have been in existence: 1.5
Number of players who had prior rugby experieince: 3-4
Number of games played together (prior to this): 0
Score (complete and absolute guess): 0 - 50+
Number of bloody noses: 1
Number of stepped on faces: 1 (theirs)
Number of punches thrown: probably more than permissible
Amount of effort put in: immeasurable
Value of this experience: PRICELESS
Well... maybe the score doesn't show it, but we sure do feel like we won! The RHINOS kicked some but out there. We weren't scared, we didn't run (unless it was after them) nor did we duck. We went right through the center taking everything they threw at us. Had the wind knocked out of us, got stepped on, got scratched, got shoved, got lifted and thrown, got bloody noses... well.. essentially got our asses wooped! And yet we had fun!
It was a great learning experience and all of us can't wait for the next opportunity to roll around in the mud and clobber complete strangers that most of the time are twice our size (and be clobbered by them)! What more can you desire!
So if you weren't there this time round... come out to our future games in the spring semester!
Kasia and the RHINOS!
PS: look out for the "Mercy Club" in the hallways of the law buidling!
