Civil Procedure...

was the bane of my existence my first year of law school. I didn't find it terribly interesting and I thought the professor was unnecessarily harsh and well, my grades in it were shitty. In fact, after first semester of law school, my Civ Pro grade was the only one posted for awhile and I spent about a week wondering why I had even gone to law school in the first place.

This morning one of the law clerks at my office told me she got a B+ in her Civil Procedure class. This is amazing. I mean, a B+ is an absolutely respectable grade for any law school class, but this girl is Polish- English is, like, her third language or something. I can't imagine taking law school classes or exams in Spanish or any other non-native language. It was hard enough in English. So, major props to the genius who sits in the cubicle down the hall from my office. Now I know who to ask if I ever need to know Civil Procedure or if the world calls my bluff and makes me re-do law school.
