After reading Dylan's blog today he posed a very valid question wondering aloud what it is about blogs that make other people read them. This question also lends itself to a follow up question, "Why do you blog?" I will attempt to answer both. Why do I read blogs? For many of the same reasons Dylan stated, I like to see what the law school experience is like from other points of view. Also, to see if my experience is abnormal, and further to live vicariously through those students lucky enough to be eminently successful at this 3 year quest through hell. Why do I blog? I find it surprising that I do this and have been doing this for quite a while now. Until now the longest I have ever kept a written journal was approximately a month in second grade, and I was forced to do it by the teacher. It is certainly easier to keep a journal in this format, and knowing that I'm doing this for more than myself makes it a bit more worthwhile. I have found that I like seeking out advice and comments from my fellow students and lawyers. Perhaps it's ego, perhaps it's a want to be anonymously famous...whoa talk about an oxymoron. Anyway, I hope to keep doing this throughout the rest of my student days and hope I keep putting things here that make you want to keep reading.
