Greetings Future Lawyers! My name is Holly White, and I am a 1L in section 1. To cut to the chase, this email is a school wide broadcast about something I know is on all of our minds, and something that is especially close to my heart. Any guesses? Thats right, its the Barrister's Ball. I apologize up front for my candor, and I know the ball is not coming up immediately, but I am never one to leave anything to chance, and the bottom line is, I need a date.
What exactly is a Barrister? (see generally www.dictionary.com where it says a barrister is counsel admitted to plead at the bar and undertake the public trial of causes in an English superior court; compare to a solicitor). That is exactly what I am doing, I am soliciting. Symbolic? Perhaps.
Poignant? Definitely. I know that traditionally men invite women to dances, but in our everly progressive, post-modern society, I think that if a woman wants something, she should go get it.
I am including a picture of myself, and I am sure alot of you will recognize me from school. I tend to hang around the faculty offices, but I am up and down the halls alot.

After looking at my picture I am sure I have some takers immediately, and while my looks are sufficient to base a decision on, I would prefer to have a guy ask me because of who I am. I have a big heart, and an open mind. I love poetry, sappy movies, theater, 4 leaf clovers, massages, and romantic dinners. I also have my wild side though. My parents have a new dodge caravan that they let me take out on the weekends, and me and my crew really dominate the downtown area with it. I like hitting the ball too hard at the miniature golf course, I don't wait 30 minutes after eating to swim, and I am not scared of a little unplanned hand holding. I am looking for a guy who is not scared of a woman like me, but who looks forward to a spring evening of spontaneity. I am going to wear a strapless(calm down guys, I will either wear band-aids or pasties underneath) dress to the dance that will be short, but long enough to cover my slip. Closed toed shoes? You betcha...I didnt watch Mtv's Wade Robson Project for nothing! I mentioned the minivan earlier, and my dad already said I could have it for the dance.
It is an '05 model and it has the leather package, and the dvd player in it, so if the dance is lame we can watch the english patient or something.
I know I sent this email to the entire school, and I have 2 points I would like to make about that.
1. I would be lying if I did not already have a short list of people I would like to go with, and I would feel ashamed if I did not give them all shout outs in this email.
a) to the man that used to write the diary of a first you student who was de-throned in an administrative coupe' d'tat: I like your style, and I like your moves. We need to meet.
b) to the 2L who is drives the maroon durango with the texas a&m sticker on it: Your skater style is appreciated by the ladies
c) to the recently clean shaven 1L who knows how to have fun at sba socials, and really doesnt mind a night in the pokey: you had me at "mortar forker"
d) to the supreme court bound 1L texas longhorn, who is not afraid to put half a can of copenhagen is his mouth during class, and sure is not afraid of some obnoxious eagles fan: keep ME on your short list
e) to the man that drives the hummer, and the man that rides the grey motorcycle with the flame paint job: can we talk about the possibility of you both going with me at once?
2. I know alot of girls got this email, so if you all know anyone that might like to go with me, feel free to pass the word along. I gone to alot of dances alone, and I am not going to let that happen this time. Carpe Diem!
Guys, we are all in this togethers, so feel free to email me back with questions, comments, suggestions or viruses. - Holly
