Yikes! Gross. I will not ride another feet dangling ride. Something gives me problems already when someone tells me to take off my shoes b/c I might lose them. Yeah. They dont ever say you might lose the things that go IN your shoes! EW!
An interesting article I found on someone else's blog about Law School's effects on students:
It's long, but some quotes are quite entertaining... *Ah, law school... (wistful sigh)... haha!

"Indeed, the emotional distress
of law students appears to significantly exceed that
of medical students and at times to approach that of
psychiatric populations."
"More important,
they showed that these declines were correlated with negative
changes in motivation and valuing as defined by SDT.
Specifically, students evidenced radically reduced intrinsic
motivation, that is, a loss of engagement in behavior
because of its interest and enjoyment potential. In addition,
students showed maladaptive changes in valuing during
their 1st year of law school."
"The current findings suggest that
the motivation-dampening effects of law school may
indeed have negative effects that extend well beyond graduation.
These effects are also consistent with recent commentators’
claims that there are major problems in the
legal profession."
Damn. Well, I seem to have quite enough motivation, but then again.. I'm not practicing law anymore!! haha! Awesome!
Love to my homies. Or something.
