over the past few months i've found it challenging to learn to talk to people about something other than law school. since that's been such a big part of my life for the past 4 years, its a big part of my conversation arsenal. i've noticed that when i talk about things, everything occurred in relation to law school. for example, i started going out with my exboyfriend during my second year of law school. or, i obtained my current car duing my first year of law school. really....why can't i say that i got it in late 2003? people must wonder what the hell i'm talking about. i've been trying to rectify this problem, but its definitely been a challenge. i wonder if for the next few months everything will be in relation to bar studying. such as: i saw comedian joey diaz perform during my first week of bar studying. (that's next friday - should be fun).
i went on a date recently, and it was a normal, lawschool-less date, until he made the mistake of asking about the bar exam. ten minutes later i found myself still talking about the exam, about how much time i'll spend studying for it, what's on the test, the pass/fail rate, etc. don't i sound like such a fun date?! hell, even i wouldn't want to date me right now, and i ALWAYS want to date me :)
at least i'm not like this on a date:
i promise one day i'll be interesting again. unless you never thought i was interesting, then in that case.....good news! i already meet your expectations of uninterestingness.
but for the next few months, don't expect anything intelligent or interesting to come out of my mouth, and in return, i'll try to learn to talk about something besides the bar exam.
