Life has been busy. Not bad "oh my word I want to curl up and cry" busy. Productive busy. I've had fairy parties every weekend for the last 5 weeks. I just finished week 4 of pole dancing (I sprained my baby toe). Work has improved immensely I actually feel like I'm doing something and being productive. I've been doing a lot of writing that isn't blogging. I've also taken steps to start something that I should have done a long time ago. I've started studying for my LSATs. That would be the test you take to get into Law School.
Yes, I want to be a lawyer. I've always wanted to be a lawyer. Since the 10th grade. I've always wanted to enter law school and the goal was either immigration law or copyright law. I did play with the idea of family law for a bit but decided yeah no. Oddly enough I found the film "Legally Blonde" quite inspiring. I really liked that movie. It made law school accessible to me.
What happened to that plan? Well my first year of University is what happened to that plan. My first year of University was well...rather unremarkale. I don't like to talk about it. Neither does my dad. My first year of University humbled me. I had grown up always being told I was smart and a gifted learner (well not when it came to math...I took what we called truck driver math in high school.) I believed what I was told with all my heart. I am a smart person. I am a gifted learner. Unfortunately I thought it's what would help me coast through University. Then came the startling realization that I had to work at being smart now. I actually had to put effort in. I never had to before (again except for math.) I made this realization a little to late. Oops. So my plans for law school and taking the LSATs were derailed due to me not smartening up fast enough. So the plan became less about getting into law school and more about just finishing University.
Now with this 101 in 1001 came the chance to take the LSATs. It's something I've always wanted to do and had a world of excuses as to why I couldn't do them. Work. School. Life. Getting married. Being married. Work. All sorts of stuff. Now I don't have an excuse.
Also John offered to take them with me and said he would do better than I would. Well we can't have that. Yeah the best way to get results out of me is to turn something into a competition.
So that's what will be consuming my time until June when I take the LSATs. Go me.
On a totally unrelated note.
Could those of you who are Canadian and feel like it go to www.brewsomegood.ca and nominate The Rainbow Society. Sorry it's open to Canadians only. They're currently running a contest to give money to organizations who are "brewing good" in their community. It would be totally awesome if you guys could do that. We can be nominated more than once and the more nominations the higher our chances of winning. Their current campaign of "Brew Some Good" totally rocks. You can only nominate us once but feel free to nominate other organizations in your communities as well. There are so many good things going on in the world its time they are recognized.
Oh and in case you're wondering...fairies do brush their teeth.
