Now....For the rest of the story..........

Ok...This Blog is about Law School....I'm not sure if everyone knows yet or not but I have decided not to return to my 2nd year of law school. I passed all of my classes (I can show you my transcripts if you'd like!!) I swear! However I have several reasons for not returning which I am going to share with the world now (hmmummhmm--sound of throat clearing):

1) I dont DRINK -- I quickly found out that this separated me from most of my classmates and instructors. There were lots of school parties and gatherings (including instructors) that were held which were boozefests.....A large part of the 'legal world' is networking, which I discovered (in my naivete) equals alcohol. Soooo.....

GETTING AHEAD IN LAW SCHOOL + SOCIALIZING = DRINKING

DRINKING + ME = NOT GONNA HAPPEN

2) I'm LAZY -- I would much rather be hanging out with JUSTIN, taking PICTURES, playing with the CATS, playing with my Wii, and LIVING LIFE!! Law school consumes your life - I couldn't go anywhere or do anything, and I was a real WITCH (Not pretty!!). We had to turn down time with friends and time with each other so I could read some BORING book or paper. I figured life's too short.

3) No PROFITability -- in one of our classes we learned that the average salary for attorneys in NM ranged from $29,000 to $44,000 -- now I have THAT kind of earning potential now...sooo...tack on student loans (Because when you go to law school you aren't allowed to work more than 10 hours a week UMMM OK!) for tuition/living expenses/books/fees -- it was not worth it.

4) No HAPPY-ness -- in the same class as above we learned that lawyers have high rates: low job satisfaction, alcoholism, depression. Ummm NO thanks!!

AND

5) I just DIDN'T WANT TO GO BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Some people will speculate what they will of why I'm really not going back, but you heard it here first!! I'm excited where life will take me now...you NEVER know!
