Best Experience at the Firm
"Successfully walking to court in four-inch stilettos. The judge was impressed by my professional appearance (he said that I looked like a 'Professional' – how sweet!) and denied the other party’s motion for summary judgment."

Worst Experience at the Firm
"Waking up everyday knowing that I was 'inadvertently hired' by Anonymous Law Firm. After all, I paid over twenty eight million pesos ($5,000 U.S. dollars) and endured two grueling semesters of law school at Facultad de Derecho de la Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico, all while suffering from a nasty case of tape worm. (At least I didn’t have to purge those semesters!)"

Advice to Law Students
"Don't obsess over your grades or ranking in law school. I didn't, and I ended up at the same place as the Harvard type As. Also, when you need to look especially smart for a partner or client, discretely apply lip gloss to your lips and press your lips together. It mimics thinking... but be careful not to look constipated."
