Ego vobis valedico

This past week, Terry and I made the trek across New England back to Kentucky. We saw Boston, Cape Ann, and New York City. After a fun week together, I'm now back in Lexington getting ready for my final year of law school.

I was trying to think of a good theme to cap off this blog and my time in Boston. But really, there's not much left to be said. It was the experience of a lifetime, one that I am sad to leave but hope will lead me to more opportunities in the future.

I will miss working with the Online Media Legal Network, writing on current legal issues for the CMLP blog, studying areas of law for the Legal Guide, and reading current cases for the Legal Threats database. I will miss working with the amazingly talented group at the Berkman Center. I will miss the utopian atmosphere of Cambridge and Harvard Square, and the many offerings of Boston.

I am grateful to the staff of the CMLP (David, Jeff, Arthur and Andy) for the experience, to the Berkman Center faculty and staff for helping me along the way, to the CMLP interns (Tim and Sharkey) for being awesome coworkers and to all the other Berkman Centers for an awesome summer. I'm also grateful to my dean, my professors and a few attorneys here in Lexington for graciously helping me to go to Cambridge by donating to my summer funding.

And last but not least, I'm grateful to Terry, who understood why I wanted and needed to come here, even though it meant we would be apart for two months, and who waited patiently for me to return. He even drove 16.5 hours nonstop to come here and take me home. His dedication through this whole experience was remarkable and touching.

I will remember this experience for the rest of my life, and I will try to make the best of what I learned. Here's hoping for the best!

Signing off,

Brittany
