so, i have been procrastinating about this for months - the dreaded law school application personal statement. essentially, why do i want to go to law school, and why should they let me. i mean, what the hell, i don't know why i'm going. no, that's not true, but every time i try to explain it, i sound stupid. i mean, i don't know exactly what i ( Read more... )

i am so pissed today. there are reasons, but i know i am overreacting. grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. i don't want a parking ticket, or worse, for my car to be towed!!!!!!!

i was really struck by this article. i guess i no longer believe that protest can make a difference. here it seems like all outcomes are predetermined. and then something like this happens and it makes me wonder - somehow, is lebanon/syria more democratic than the u.s ( Read more... )

so, yesterday i checked my email and there was a message from kyle. kind of weird since i hadn't even thought about him until the day before when i was talking to bob about him...then, last night he called at around midnight? total booty call. he was drunk and walking back to the bar where he left his debit card (and his tab). while i did get a ( Read more... )

lately that's how i've been feeling. i don't think this is good. my job is not helping. i think ultimately a job that requires lots of interaction with other people, people you don't know, is not such a great idea when you are feeling very alone and not very much like interacting with people in any capacity ( Read more... )
