28 and counting

Ah, another birthday. Time to take stock. I'm 28 and I'm in school, in debt, and living in a rented apartment in Boston. Hmmmmm, sounds a lot like 19-21. But, it's LAW school, which will help pay off all that debt, and I'm living in that apartment with my wonderful wife and two dogs after coming back to Boston. Can't really complain at all, in fact, I can cheer about it. If I weren't studying for finals, I would actually feel like jumping up and down about it. Also, I'm healthy, have enough to eat, and have some very nice things, then there's all that potential alluded to before including Noreen's after just finishing her masters. It is a good life!

On another note, I sent out about 100 e-mails applying to big law firms for the summer, on Friday night. As of 9:30 this morning, I already have 3 rejection notices. I love efficiency! It's not a big deal, these applications are a long shot, like 1% chance long shot, or less. It's almost a fun thing to go through, like a collective bonding of suffering kind of thing.

Gotta go, to realize all that potential, I have to go lock myself in a room and cram a whole bunch of information into my brain over the next 3 weeks. I'll talk to you all on the other side. Be well!
