Date: January 14th, 2006 12:36 AM Author: cerebral garrison how do you think it went? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=338966&forum_id=2#4812717) |
|
Date: January 14th, 2006 12:37 AM Author: Greedy Arrogant Lodge National Security Agency I felt like it went quite well, but who knows? I am anxious to hear back from them as it has been awhile. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=338966&forum_id=2#4812723) |

|
Date: January 14th, 2006 12:53 AM Author: Greedy Arrogant Lodge National Security Agency Of course I did. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=338966&forum_id=2#4812863) |
|
Date: January 14th, 2006 12:57 AM Author: buff masturbator scourge upon the earth do you ever take it off? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=338966&forum_id=2#4812895) |
|
Date: January 14th, 2006 12:58 AM Author: Greedy Arrogant Lodge National Security Agency Yes, I regularly take it off to wash dishes and lose it for 2-3 days at a time. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=338966&forum_id=2#4812903) |
|
Date: January 14th, 2006 12:43 AM Author: Greedy Arrogant Lodge National Security Agency btw, I don't remember the details of our discussion on this. Do you attend NU or something? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=338966&forum_id=2#4812759) |
|
Date: January 14th, 2006 12:45 AM Author: cerebral garrison You posted a what-to-wear thread.
Did you end up applying anywhere outside the top 25? |
|
Date: January 14th, 2006 12:47 AM Author: Greedy Arrogant Lodge National Security Agency No. I have a T1 safety.
I now have a busines suit that I can wear in case of future interviews and such, thus saving me from future what-to-wear threads. I had to scour the entire freaking city of Chicago to find it. |
|
Date: January 14th, 2006 12:52 AM Author: cerebral garrison Where'd you get it? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=338966&forum_id=2#4812852) |
|
Date: January 14th, 2006 12:53 AM Author: Greedy Arrogant Lodge National Security Agency BCBG, which was miraculously having a 50% off sale. We stumbled in as a last ditch effort before giving up. Have you been there? THey have great clothes. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=338966&forum_id=2#4812860) |
|
Date: January 14th, 2006 1:06 AM Author: cerebral garrison Their clothes don't fit me. They are great for very petite women like you, though.
It would have been fun to go shopping with you. Too bad. |
|
Date: January 14th, 2006 1:12 AM Author: Greedy Arrogant Lodge National Security Agency Oh, this was more like a project than a shopping trip. Not too fun at all until I finally found BCBG at 3:30 pm on Sunday, truth be told. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=338966&forum_id=2#4813004) |
|
Date: January 14th, 2006 1:17 AM Author: cerebral garrison What location of BCBG?
I want to go shopping now. |
|
Date: January 14th, 2006 1:19 AM Author: Greedy Arrogant Lodge National Security Agency Lincoln Park area. We were looking for a restaurant there, but it was closed. At the time, it seemed like a failed ending to a failed weekend...until I saw that blessed store.
Actually, now that THAT's over I keep wanting to go shopping. |
|
Date: January 14th, 2006 1:19 AM Author: cerebral garrison Hehe. I know exactly where. Which restaurant? Where did you end up eating? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=338966&forum_id=2#4813066) |
|
Date: January 14th, 2006 1:22 AM Author: Greedy Arrogant Lodge National Security Agency It's called Sweet Basil. The sign said that they were to open around the time that we got there, which seemed rather felicitous, so we waited in the cold for a while until it became clear that it was not, in fact, going to open. Ever been there? It was fantastic when I was there one time.
We ended up at some Mexican restaurant (Fiesta something or other) with really good food and an amusing huge TV system on which they were playing videos of female Latin music stars. |
|
Date: January 14th, 2006 1:23 AM Author: cerebral garrison I've never been to eitehr. You should have gone to RJ Grunts. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=338966&forum_id=2#4813097) |
|
Date: January 14th, 2006 1:29 AM Author: Greedy Arrogant Lodge National Security Agency What's that? It sounds familiar. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=338966&forum_id=2#4813140) |
|
Date: January 14th, 2006 1:38 AM Author: cerebral garrison It's the original Lettuce Entertain you restaurant, among other things. A neighborhood staple for 35 years or so. Really really good. Right near the zoo on Lincoln Park west. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=338966&forum_id=2#4813231) |
|
Date: January 14th, 2006 1:39 AM Author: Greedy Arrogant Lodge National Security Agency Cool. I will check it out next time. With any luck, I'll be living there soon.
How've you been? |
|
Date: January 14th, 2006 1:40 AM Author: cerebral garrison Make sure you get the salad bar, and the French Onion soup is the best in the history of the world. Burgers are good too.
I'm good. Can't sleep. Sort of anxious but I don't know why. You? |
|
Date: January 14th, 2006 1:43 AM Author: Greedy Arrogant Lodge National Security Agency Yum, salad bar. I am gettin hungry now.
Sorry that you are feeling anxious. I have been very very very anxious, but I knowwhy--I can't wait to hear back on my law school apps because I cannot make my other fun plans without one acceptance in the bag. I am also a little sick with a sore throat. Other than that, things are going pretty well.
I think that I may have sent you an e-mail, btw. |
|
Date: January 14th, 2006 1:44 AM Author: cerebral garrison I am hungry now, too. Only seven hours until I eat oatmeal! (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=338966&forum_id=2#4813279) |
|
Date: January 14th, 2006 1:49 AM Author: Greedy Arrogant Lodge National Security Agency Yum, oatmeal. I have some chocolate pudding in the fridge. It will not last through the night.
edit: another email |
|
Date: January 14th, 2006 1:53 AM Author: cerebral garrison I replied. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=338966&forum_id=2#4813339) |
Date: January 14th, 2006 1:20 AM Author: ruddy range therapy Did some today.
90% of the time they slobbered on about how much they loved the firm, the other 10% of the time they feigned interest in my responses. I received no difficult questions, hypotheticals, etc.
Nod, smile, suck some dick and you will be fine. |
|
Date: January 16th, 2006 12:59 PM Author: Greedy Arrogant Lodge National Security Agency Bump. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=338966&forum_id=2#4831877) |
|
Date: January 16th, 2006 1:03 PM Author: Odious fuchsia meetinghouse indirect expression When was your interview? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=338966&forum_id=2#4831903) |
|
Date: January 16th, 2006 1:04 PM Author: Greedy Arrogant Lodge National Security Agency I haven't yet interviewed. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=338966&forum_id=2#4831921) |
|
Date: January 16th, 2006 1:05 PM Author: Odious fuchsia meetinghouse indirect expression Meant your NU interview.
Why are you interviewing for a job if you are going to LS?
Now I am thoroughly confused. |
|
Date: January 16th, 2006 1:10 PM Author: Greedy Arrogant Lodge National Security Agency OK, I am interviewing at a law school. I know for sure that I want to go there, but I am not sure how much detailed info I should know about the school. I mean, I have a general idea of what the school likes to emphasize about itself, I know the names and have a general idea of what the major faculty members are into, and I know about the school's extra programs, clinics, etc.
My fear is that they will want me to know exactly which area of the law I will want to study and with whom. |
|
Date: January 16th, 2006 1:12 PM Author: Odious fuchsia meetinghouse indirect expression They won't. Just say they have a couple of programs that interest you like X & Y with Professor A & B.
Then say you want to keep an open mind until you start.
Blah, blah, blah. |
|
Date: January 16th, 2006 1:14 PM Author: Greedy Arrogant Lodge National Security Agency Well, that is true--I do know which programs interest me and I do have an open mind.
I don't know why I am worrying about this so much, since I actually do have career goals and a good idea of what I want to study. Mostly I'm just excited, I think. |
|
Date: January 16th, 2006 1:15 PM Author: Odious fuchsia meetinghouse indirect expression The kind of excitement only a free man feels? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=338966&forum_id=2#4832020) |
|
Date: January 16th, 2006 1:18 PM Author: Greedy Arrogant Lodge National Security Agency No, the kind of excitement a man trapped in a rut feels. I am ready to move on to something more interesting and this is my first real scent of it since I decided to defer. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=338966&forum_id=2#4832049) |
|
Date: January 16th, 2006 1:19 PM Author: Odious fuchsia meetinghouse indirect expression I was quoting Shawshank Redemption.
What?!?! You decided to defer? Since when? |
|
Date: January 16th, 2006 1:22 PM Author: Greedy Arrogant Lodge National Security Agency I applied to what is now my safety last year. My intention was only to go there, but after I took the LSAT, a bunch of schools sent me app fee waivers. After that, I started talking to attorneys that I know and I realized how freaking important prestige is. Once I opened my mind to the idea of moving, I realized that there are other schools that I would rather attend, anyway. As a result, I got a nonbinding deferral. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=338966&forum_id=2#4832075) |
|
Date: January 16th, 2006 1:23 PM Author: Odious fuchsia meetinghouse indirect expression Gotcha.
Where is your husband? Sleeping or gardening? |
|
Date: January 16th, 2006 1:24 PM Author: Greedy Arrogant Lodge National Security Agency Working. HE is still sick, though. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=338966&forum_id=2#4832088) |
|
Date: January 16th, 2006 1:26 PM Author: Odious fuchsia meetinghouse indirect expression Are you slowly poisoning him so you can start your new life untethered? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=338966&forum_id=2#4832114) |
|
Date: January 16th, 2006 1:27 PM Author: Greedy Arrogant Lodge National Security Agency No, I need someone to work and pay down some of my loans as I rack them up. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=338966&forum_id=2#4832122) |
|
Date: January 16th, 2006 1:30 PM Author: Odious fuchsia meetinghouse indirect expression I thought that was what the insurance money was going to be for. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=338966&forum_id=2#4832162) |
|
Date: January 16th, 2006 1:32 PM Author: Greedy Arrogant Lodge National Security Agency Oh, yeah. No, actually, he will probably apply to a program wherever we end up, so we will plunge into great debt together and then, with luck, we will claw our way out together. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=338966&forum_id=2#4832177) |
|
Date: January 16th, 2006 1:33 PM Author: Odious fuchsia meetinghouse indirect expression I don't know. If you expose him to the women in the DC area for instance, he may be charmed by their non-midwest worldly ways. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=338966&forum_id=2#4832185) |
|
Date: January 16th, 2006 1:34 PM Author: Greedy Arrogant Lodge National Security Agency He adores me. He has also lived abroad and has been able to meet cosmopolitan women. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=338966&forum_id=2#4832198) |
|
Date: January 16th, 2006 1:36 PM Author: Odious fuchsia meetinghouse indirect expression "He adores" you?
He is definitely gay. |
|
Date: January 16th, 2006 1:38 PM Author: Greedy Arrogant Lodge National Security Agency How is it gay to adore a woman? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=338966&forum_id=2#4832241) |
|
Date: January 16th, 2006 1:41 PM Author: Odious fuchsia meetinghouse indirect expression The term is gay sounding.
I would never say "I adore" someone. I would say I love someone. |
|
Date: January 16th, 2006 1:42 PM Author: Greedy Arrogant Lodge National Security Agency HE does say that he loves me. "Adore" is what we call a synonym. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=338966&forum_id=2#4832278) |
|
Date: January 16th, 2006 1:45 PM Author: Odious fuchsia meetinghouse indirect expression Right, a gay one. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=338966&forum_id=2#4832299) |
|
Date: January 16th, 2006 1:46 PM Author: Greedy Arrogant Lodge National Security Agency It's the synonym that I chose to use, so I guess that I must be gay. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=338966&forum_id=2#4832312) |
|
Date: January 16th, 2006 1:47 PM Author: Odious fuchsia meetinghouse indirect expression SWeet. Would you like me to arrange soemthing for you?
If you visit UCLA I am fairly certain I can make this happen for you. |
|
Date: January 16th, 2006 1:48 PM Author: Greedy Arrogant Lodge National Security Agency What does "arrange something" mean. If I visit LA, I would like to leave with a spouse. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=338966&forum_id=2#4832330) |
|
Date: January 16th, 2006 1:50 PM Author: Odious fuchsia meetinghouse indirect expression What happens in LA, stays in LA. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=338966&forum_id=2#4832349) |
|
Date: January 16th, 2006 1:06 PM Author: Greedy Arrogant Lodge National Security Agency I think that my main problem is that I have not interviewed for very many things in my life, so I might be expecting too much of myself.
