So I haven't been posting much about my life since the funeral, but there's been a lot happening.
I went on a field trip ("Law Day") to downtown Detroit to see how court trials work. I got to see Marvin Barnett, one hell of a lawyer (entertaining too), in court. We were trying hard not to laugh; he cracked a lot of jokes and was a very electric speaker.
I met a bunch of successful lawyers and judges after, all graduated from my school (go figure). The most outstanding judge I met was Federal Judge Sean Cox (nice guy). The lawyers and judges all gave us some advice: invent yourself to be yourself (we're only a group of 17-18 year-olds).
As of today my high school life is practically done (seniors get out early). We had a senior barbecue. We ate steak (my friends got some crappy ones though...) and burgers, listened to a band play (my friends, not pros...still good though). I also smoked my first cigar (not as deadly as cigarettes, so w/e), not bad. Now, I'm not gonna start smoking them regularly, but if offered a cigar (not cigarettes), I would take it.
Ummm...senior graduation is later this month after my 3 AP's (I don't need to take 3 of my finals! I'm so happy! :D ). Then I'll have the senior all-nighter (all night party at the school).
And then...yeah college will be just around the corner. It's surreal; the year just seemed to have gone by so quickly.
senior year
