The Musings of a Self-Absorbed 1L: Part Five

How to succeed in law school....


a) don't go. seriously... stop studying for the LSAT. Stop writing your essay. Just turn around and do something else. You wanna help people? Build fucking huts in Namibia. Want to make money? Become a porn star / socialite. This route is not the yellow brick road to anything.

b) if it's too late for (a), be certain to drop out before the tuition needs to be returned. That percentage drops quickly so you must move fast. Don't waste time trying to make a decision- that is what all the other people in law school will do. And they will not succeed.

c) ultimately you were foolish and didn't do (a). Then you refused to listen to me about (b)- or perhaps you just stumbled upon this in November... or second semester. Either way- (c) is for everyone. Use these precious three years to impress upon your classmates your usefulness as a womb, child rearer, chef, and housekeeper. When you have located a classmate who seems as though he (she) will be able to provide you with a lifestyle that meets your needs... hone in. Hone in homey and find a way to exchange rings. Of course if you are male you will have to overcome the stigma of the stay-at-home-dad but this is your full career now.... you will find a way.
