Law Girl

By Dana Skorenki (3L)

Now that you are graduating, what is your best memory from every year?  GO!
1L: Experiencing my first John Gilbert sneeze (It was 8 am, he was sitting directly behind me and he did not hold anything back)
2L:  Tie - Helping to bring down the Jeopardy Theme Song in Law Show 2009 and beating John Gilbert in an epic pose off in the school lobby.
3L:  Three Way Tie – 7 am vodka shots at Law Games, The Secret Skrenk and when Adam presented a case brief in front of the class using sock puppets. (law school gets better each year)

For all the first years doing their first course selection in law school, name the worst course.
I won’t name names, but there are 4 reasons why I wouldn’t recommend this class: 1. It’s not overly practical, 2. It’s a night class, 3. There was only one 10-minute break during the 3 hours of class, 4. There are 3 points under reason 4., a) There are a lot of lists, b) You have to memorize said lists, c) You won’t be able to type fast enough to record all of the points in each list.

Most embarrassing thing you have done in law school.
There was a party at a professor’s house in first year.  There was good wine (read: lots of wine). And there was also a soap dish on the sink in the bathroom that, I still maintain, wasn’t well affixed.  It was very loud when it broke  (I am forever indebted to Dallas).

Most embarrassing thing you’ve seen someone else in law school do?
Ha, poor girl.  It was Halloween and she was leaving the bar at 10pm.  She had to pass like 50 of us waiting in line, and she didn’t quite make it.  She threw up everywhere.  And for those of you who are curious: she was wearing a Disney princess costume.

If you could go back and do it again, what would you have done instead of law school?
I would attempt to be a gatherer, nurse, stewardess, or pharma-girl.

Favourite prof. Don’t lie, you know you have one.
Professor Law.  That man knows a good sweater vest when he sees one.

Someone you wouldn’t want to introduce to your parents at grad.
Anyone who shows up wearing pyjamas.

Best procrastination excuse you or someone else has used.
It’s not the best, but I have a set routine that I go through every December and April before I can start studying for exams: I clean my apartment, I cut my own hair, and I re-watch all the seasons of HIMYM and 30 Rock.  More often than not, I have to go get my hair re-cut by a professional, and then I start studying.

What will happen to (or who will write) he says/she says once you’re gone?!!!
I heard canons has bought a case of NyQuil and are going to try to addict a 2nd year boy to it to fill John’s shoes.  For law girl, they will probably just go with whatever girl shows up to Avenue the earliest on Thursdays.
