Midnite in the Law Libraby

Posted by richardcjy on November 20, 2006

It’s quiet but still dynamic.

The Westlaw printer is busy working, generating documents after documents.
You hear the sounds of typing. The sounds of quick page-turning surrounded.
It’s not crowded but you saw familiar faces. Focus and hard working.
The Memorandum is in the making. Future attorneys are in the making.

I experienced the midnight scene in the law library, thanks to Mr. Lanham.

Natural Rivalry

Posted by richardcjy on November 19, 2006

Could you think of the best way to punish someone?
Here I have some ideas FYI.

How about make your “good friend” wear the nice baseball cap with a cute “BlueDevil” sign,
and a gorgeous Blue T with big “DUKE” in the front, and huge “UNC sucks” in the back.
Let him enjoy walking on Franklin Street in Chapel Hill on a lovely Friday night outside lots of fine bars and clubs.

Then you sit back and enjoy the show.

This is based on my own experience with only a “D” sign on my basketball shorts. Trust me, you will feel the intrastate natural rivalry^^

Red October! Cardinals top the World!

Posted by richardcjy on November 7, 2006

2006 St. Louis Cardinals, the World Champion!

Congratulations to the best baseball city, your mighty Cardinals won their 10th World Series title. After 24 years, we don’t have to wait anymore. After heartbreaking 85, 87, 96, 04, 05 losses, we no longer one step shy for the title.

Impossible is nothing! Anything can happen!

That’s why baseball is so attractive: you never know what will happen. 2006 Cardinals are the underdog all the way in the playoff, and they went through them all. This team never undermine themselves, and they never count themselves out. I am so proud of them!

My October at the Bryan Center

Thanks to National Blackout Policy (Telecommunications Law…..mmm:P), I can’t watch Major League Baseball playoffs through my MLB.tv. Therefore I spent most of my evenings in October at the great Bryan Center TV room, sitting on the big sofa, with unlimited 24-hr McDonalds (of course you have to pay), to enjoy the Fall Classic.

The Fall Classic

As a baseball fan, you always feel the seasons according to the game. When you hear the first strike call, you know spring comes officially. You feel the heat of summer by one homerun after another one. And in fall, heroes stand out and the champion will be crowned.

The World Series made me aware of the fall, and the cold wind outside the Bryan Center everynite after the game made me really feel it. It’s literally the Fall Classic.
