Profiles in Awesome: S-Dub

There are some pretty awesome people walking the halls of TC Williams SoL (that's school of law, although at times we may feel like it stands for something else...) One of them is known by several names to her numerous acquaintances. To me, she is simply S-Dub.

You may have seen S-Dub around. Blonde hair. A seemingly endless supply of sweaters. A pep in her step that says "make it quick, I'm busy!" but a welcoming "how was your day?" smile. She often spends several an hour in the computer lab, available to anyone with Lexis needs, or candy needs as the case may be.

Besides being awesome, S-Dub's activities include composing flowing prose and comprehensive case briefs in ridiculously small and neat handwriting. Another one of her pastimes is dishing out inspirational quotes and heart-warming anecdotes. Sample some of her recent beauties:

-"I saw a headline, and it said 'NBA guard found with gun in locker room.' I thought, well that's not that weird. I mean he's a guard. And then I realized, and I was like 'oh...they meant like a POINT guard...'"
-"The house of love will be open for guests!" (referring to her home)
-(Frank and I said something at the same time) "Jinx! Now...one of you owes the other one a soda."
-"Is there weather happening outside?"

The kindest of hearts does S-Dub have. Just this afternoon, she offered her entire left arm be lost so that an insect might be spared. (Ok...maybe she was terrified of a bug and froze up to the point of appearing temporarily paralyzed. Maybe.) She is always up for a discussion of last night's Glee, but if you're lookin for a sugarcoater, head on down the road. S-Dub is a straight shooter. She'll tell it like it is.

So if you see S-Dub relaxing in the lab or headed towards her carrel, be sure to say hello. You will be glad that you did.
