Banquets and Breakfasts!

This past weekend my law school celebrated its 25 Anniversary, so to celebrate there were a lot of events over the past weekend. I personally went to a BBQ on Friday night which was fun and I got to meet some alumni and other professors. Saturday night was the big night where the school was throwing a banquet with Justice Alito as the main speaker. Chase and I went and since it was business attire we both wore our suits which was fun to be dressed up. Justice Alito was a great speaker and had some funny stories about his time in law school. Apparently his 1L year his con-law professor spent the whole time trying to get them to quit law school. This morning former Attorney General John Ashcroft had breakfast with my honors 1L class and that was also fun. He had a lot of good insights into political life and life in general. School is going well, pretty boring and also stress inducing because I have midterms coming up on the 7th and 13th of October and a big paper due on the 3rd of October. It also has been raining a lot here which is kind of a downer, but I took this picture last week of the golf course after I woke up. It's cool in the mornings here the lake is all steamy.
