Sep. 4th, 2003 07:36 amI like where I am in law school in terms of...emotional stability? Attitude? Let me contrast myself.
( Doors 1 & 2 for comparison’s sake )I was worried I might overdo and stress the school thing, but I’m not. For some insane reason I care, but I don’t, about how I do. I care enough to work my tail off, but not enough to drive myself nuts. A would be nice, but I’m not going to whine about a B. I’m up to date in class, and on top of the concepts we are covering, but I’m not creating 20 page outlines with 8 color key codes and doing all the extra sections. I’ve found a healthy balance of giving and not giving a crap about this stuff. I’m surprised by how much healthier my attitude is - but again this is just an option to me - I already have a career.
I should just find a nice law-chick or law-guy and live life as a stay-at-home dad. Really.
Come to think of it - I’m the same way at work. Maybe it’s an attitude I learned here. I care about what I do and try to do well, but I don’t get all panicky about deadlines or possible mistakes. Anything that goes wrong I try to fix quickly, but I no longer get all tense over it. My god - when did I get this healthy attitude? I attribute it all to the new 18 flavors of bicardi!
( I’m a diva bitch, even in class )
On the other land, my hot librarian of a contracts professor made a line last night in relation to promissory estoppel “If I promise to give you a ride home on my broom after class (ignoring the fact that as your professor it would be improper for me to do so).” Can you see why I’m so enamored? SO my flavor!

I STILL CAN’T STOP LISTENING TO PORTISHEAD!!!
