Screaming Bean
Thursday, July 31, 2003

To explain, I've seen both arguments for and against law review on various sundry blogs and I was going to try hard to make it on, but the spirit didn't seem to be as willing as I would have liked. This has given me a real crisis of faith (so to speak). To put it bluntly, my law school experience so far has sucked. I've been unable to prove myself in any of my classes, and even with remedial help I'm only just squeaking by. In a perfect world I could have sat down, written my heart out and against all odds made it on review (but not the journals since it seems they have a higher standard for GPA...figure that out). Interviewers would be impressed...my friends would be impressed, I would be impressed. And when I got the packet that's exactly what I thought I'd do. And then I read the packet...tried my hand at the subedit, and snapped back into reality. Not only can I not edit to save my butt, I haven't a clue how to write a properly footnoted legal article. I certainly could not in good faith sign the document saying I hadn't looked at anything else in preparation for it, since the topic was one that has been on every blog, news website and paper since it was decided by the Supreme Court. So I decided not to complete it and hand it in. Can't be disappointed if you never know, right? And I thought I'd be okay with that. So why am I crying while I write this?
