Shakespeare was right....

There is a tide in the affairs of men which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune; omitted, all the voyage of their life Is bound in shallows and miseries.

I took the LSAT this past Saturday. It was a bit surreal to be forced into such an arbitrary position with respect to my future. This test represents three years of work in undergrad, the first step in seeing the fruition of my dream of becoming an attorney, a year spent reviewing arguments and taking practice tests. It seems so wonderful and horrible at the same time to reach this kind of impasse. I don't know if at any other point in your life you will ever have as much potential that has yet to be actualized with respect to your future hinged upon a single test.

In other news people irk me. I'm so sick of this collective collegiate experience where people claim ignorance as an excuse for acting like petulant children. I don't know why they feel justified acting in such a manor, or what measure of camaraderie they hope to retain from these years if they continue to act this way. It makes me sad to see individuals fall from grace. It makes me wonder if people are just petty and ridiculously stupid or if at some point in the stages of human development they learn to be what we commonly refer to as a 'decent' person?

I can't wait to finish up my undergraduate degree and get out of here.

The rest of my life will be decided this Saturday. I don't know how I feel about the totality of that kind of dynamic, or the finality of it all. I will either do well enough on the LSAT to be admitted to a Law school, or I can prepare for a career selling bits of string. I feel at ease with the course my life has taken, and am more or less prepared for it.


Aside from that, I hate Green Bay Packers fans. It's not that you can't support your team. It's not that I'm from Minnesota so I have to hate everything that is Wisconsin. It is simply this. Your team the Green Bay Packers, hasn't done anything of significance in the last ten years. What irks me the most is why people decide to run their mouths about how great the Packers are. Hmmm. Lets see you let the only three time MVP in NFL history go, who is leading his new team to the playoffs. While you remain in third position a division that has Brad 'oh my god I figure out how to make my team stop sucking at football' Childress. Congratulations Green Bay fans you're ahead of the lowly Lions who have yet to win a game this season. Maybe it's all of the beer that you drink that makes you believe that you reek of awesomeness, but let's be fair. The last time you had glory days Bill Clinton was still in office, We gearing up for the Y2K switch, Nobody knew who Osama Bin Laden was, and we elected a former wrestler as the Governor for the State of Minnesota.
