My typical weekdays start at 7:45 AM. I wake up and groggily silence my alarm as I contemplate if I can sleep for another 5 minutes. After losing that battle, I get out of bed and get ready for the day. I brush my teeth, throw on my clothes, and pack my lunch. I get into my car a little after 8 AM and drive to the office.

I get to the office around 8:45 AM. This gives me plenty of time to pour myself some coffee, catch up with the team, and get ready to work. Throughout the day I work on various tasks for the different teams we have at the office. From legal research and memos to witnessing and printing estate planning documents – there is always something to do at Stock Legal! Sometimes, I get to sit in on a client meeting or participate in an “all hands” meeting at the firm. At the office, everyday is different. I am always on my toes throughout the week. This allows me to learn on the fly and adapt to the many different situations that present themselves on a daily basis.
I leave the office at 4:00 PM and get ready to sit in gridlocked traffic for 40 minutes (my normal commute is 10 minutes long). As my road rage subsides, I pull into my neighborhood and get ready to relax for the rest of the day. I change into more comfortable clothes and head to the gym. At this point, it is about 5:00 PM, which means I have the pleasure of sitting in bumper to bumper traffic for the second time today! I use my commutes to either call my friends and family or damage my ear drums by listening to music far too loud.
Once I get back from the gym, I eat dinner and watch a show or a movie to wind down. Sometimes, I use this time to work my other jobs or prepare for the upcoming semester of law school. Around 11:00 PM I brush my teeth and get ready to sleep. At midnight, I set my alarm for the morning, put my phone down, and head to sleep as I prepare to do it all again the next morning!
Lucky for me, my Stock Legal workday starts at 10 in the morning rather than 9 like the other interns. Still, my day begins at around 7:30 when I wake up, eat breakfast, and get ready for the day

I begin my day usually around 7:30 am... or at whatever hour of the morning my one-year-old tuxedo cat decides to wake me up. I first must attend to her needs, including her breakfast and opening up the sunny window, as otherwise she will meow incessantly until I do.
My weekday mornings typically start around 6 am when the sun starts shining! I love to let the light in and wake up slowly. After that, I head downstairs for coffee. While I get ready, I sip coffee and listen to some music. Around 8:45 I head out the door and make my way to the office.
