Hello, readers.
You might have noticed that this blog has been less and less active over the past few months. This is not because I no longer enjoy blogging, or because something terrible has happened in my life (thankfully).
Instead, it has been a combination of factors. One of them is simply that I have been very, very busy. Finals, Moot Court, and a research project are all hitting at the same time, leaving me with a full schedule. While I do still have the time to write, I am finding that after a 10+ hour day of hard work, I am less inclined to sit and brainstorm, draft, lightly edit, and post entries.
Secondly, I am not really sure what I want to do with this blog. I sort of enjoy detailing my law school life, but I am always so hesitant to blog about things that are interesting due to privacy concerns. I had a great time at my summer internship, but most of it went unpublished. Same thing with a lot of my school life. Sure, if you have nothing to hide, why worry? Well, it isn't always that simple. First of all, while between my Professional Responsibility class and my previous career in a medical field I have a very good understanding of confidentiality rules, I also always want to err on the side of caution. Secondly, I would never want this blog to hurt someone else. Maybe a professor says something interesting in class, such as "Personal service by publication strikes me as wrong." Then, 10 years later, when he or she runs for some office, a news pundit does a Google search, pulls that quote, and now someone who I looked up to is trying to explain why he or she "Teaches against service of process." Finally, there is simply some stuff, that while entertaining, I prefer to enjoy only with a specific circle.
So, for the time being, I am taking a formal break from posting. I wanted to let anyone who checks here know that I am still alive, and this blog isn't "dead" or "abandoned." If you DO happen to read this, feel free to leave a comment with any questions, or perhaps let me know what you might like to see in the future.
See you soon!
