Wahhhh

That is me crying because I do not want to do any more law school applications. I have been working on them all week and I just want them to be GONE. I've sent in 11 so far and I still have about 4 or 5 more to do. This may seem a little excessive, but I am really worried that I will not get into any law school. My GPA is pretty good and I got a good enough LSAT score to buy those Minnetonka moccasin boots, but still....blah I don't know. If I get into just 2 of the 16 schools I apply to I will be very happy.
Sometimes I wish I were a wizard (okay, I wish this all the time). Seriously, Harry Potter and his wizard buddies never had to apply to anything. Hogwarts came to them via owl. And wizard jobs seem so much cooler than Muggle jobs. Would you rather be an accountant or fight dark wizards in a battle between good and evil? Hmmmm.....tough choice.
Sometimes (okay all the time) I think there's still a chance that I am a wizard and that my Hogwarts acceptance letter is floating around out there. The owls got lost somewhere in suburbia, confused by all of the identical looking houses and similar sounding street names (now is it 703 James St or 730 James Lane? Do I turn right onto Harley Ave or Marley Ave? Is it this 2 story brick house with the white picket fence, two car garage, and Toyota parked in the driveway or that 2 story brick house with the ecru picket fence, two car garage, and Toyota parked in the driveway? Damnit, I give up! I need a butterbeer!)
Any day now, Hagrid will turn up at my front door and say,"You're a wizard," and I'll be all, "What is all this rubbish you nutter?" And he'll be like, "Did you ever make anything happen? Anything you couldn't explain when you were angry or scared?" And I'll say...well, I'll have to say no, now won't I? Yes things have broken around me when I was angry, but that was because I threw them against the wall, not because I emitted some crazy wizard force field thing that knocked things over. So yeah....I guess I can't give up on law school apps just yet. BUT apparently this is what the interior of the U Michigan Law School library looks like
It's practically Hogwarts! Maybe this is where I belong! Now if only I didn't have to do an application for this school...and if they sent out acceptance letters via owl post...
