OK, I lied

I finished (a relative term) my trial level brief, and left for a fabulous Spring Break extended weekend to a nearby resort town with 7 of my best friends. Due to the lack of internet access in the middle of nowhere, I was forced to leave the blogosphere behind.

I have been busy lately. I have been working a lot on a lot of stuff lately. I am applying for a judicial internship for next semester. I am working on a brief (yes, another one) for Moot Court tryouts. I got elected to the SBA. I am trying to finish a newsletter I am working on. So much for break! Mine ended yesterday!

SBA - to run or not to run?

Last semester, we voted for SBA representatives after we knew people for about 2 weeks. At the time, we all thought that all SBA does is plan Bar Review. Later, when I found out that they had a lot to do with Orientation and budgets for the student organizations, I wondered why I had voted for the biggest drinkers in the school to represent us. If someone's biggest life skill is that they can play highschool drinking games better than anyone else, should they really be put in the position of representing our class?

I am not sure.

As a result of my pondering this, the fact that women are totally underrepresented on SBA and that there are NO non-traditional students in the group, I am considering running.

However, I don't feel I am that popular or that I can drink enough to pull it off. What do you think? I could care less about planning drinking and partying, but I really care about this school and what happens within it. Should I come for the policy and stay for the beer, or forget about this altogether?
