This Blog

It is a known fact that I am terribly inconsistent with anything dealing with putting my thoughts on a page. In general, I have a pretty good memory although I've noticed that over the years, many beautiful memories have faded from me; had it not been for the countless hours I put into putting scrapbooks together, I would have forgotten many of the fun times and moments I shared with Justin at the beginning of my relationship. For that reason, I have begun keeping a diary; This blog however is for the family and friends who want to be up to speed on what is happening in my life.
I have always wanted to go to law school; when I was younger I thought "there is no way I am smart enough to be a lawyer." When I got to high school I thought, "well maybe its possible." But here I am, at the end of undergrad, and I feel as though my education has fully prepared me for the challenge of law school. I am under no illusion that it will be easy, but I know that the skills I've learned over my life has helped me grow into a different, more earnest and determined person. So many people around me are always saying "I can't believe you want to go to school for another three years immediately after being freed from undergrad," but I am really excited and ready to go. These past four years have flown by, and my dreams are right at my finger tips.
So, I guess I should begin by telling you what has happened thus far; to begin, I am applying to ten schools. Now, I know that seems like a lot, but I really want to have a lot of options. I am applying to three top tier, four schools that are more within reach, and then three schools that I am sure I can get into. I'll reveal those later. I took the LSAT two weeks ago and was in the test for 5.5 hours. My brain was killing me. I just recently perfected my resume, and I am still editing my personal statement. Things are starting to come together so be on the look out for new updates!
