More law school jokes.

You might be in law school if...

You are truly and deeply unnerved by the thought of some of your classmates becoming attorneys.

You think tequila shots are essential to ordered liberty.

You wonder if that one professor who always seems angry and irritable and treats students' minds as his personal playground is actually a sociopath or just didn't get enough hugs as a child.

You can't think of any legitimate reason why a law student would need access to certain public records, but you can think of a whole lot of illegitimate ones.

You've given yourself carpal tunnel from all the spider solitaire you play in class.

When someone is expressing their frustration or anger about something that is in any way related to the law, you can't be sympathetic because you're too busy figuring out in your head if
they have a cause of action.

You hear about the death of an elderly friend or relative and wonder if they died intestate.

You have considered changing career paths to hot dog vendor, stilt walker, or career alcoholic (and anyone who knows me knows that Plan B is still to become a Disney Princess).

So freakin' funny!

Hello world.

A little bit of background....
So, here's a little bit about me before I get into the knitty gritty.

My name is Classy Tallahassee, and no, it's not on my birth certificate... primarily because I am from Charleston, SC. I go to law school at FSU in Tallahassee- and I hate it and love it all at the same time. It's hard to explain. Most of the time I don't mind school; I never really disliked school even growing up. I was kind of good at it, so it wasn't a chore. However, when exam time comes around I sometimes think I would rather rink cyanide than continue this chosen career path. Most of the time, I just keep asking myself, "Do I hate myself this much? WHY?" But hey, ONE MORE YEAR.

You may hear me refer to a few people over the course of my blogging-- here's a run down for you:
Z- This is my fiance' (soon to be hubby! MAY 10).
Charlie Murphy- My dog; he's a german shepherd/ border collie mix. And, yes, that's his real name.
Rachel- My best friend since 9th grade.
Bri- My younger sister.
Glen/Jamie- A couple that my fiance' and I hang out with here in Tallahassee.
Matty- My fiance's good friend and the head football coach at the high school my fiance' coaches for.
Lo- My law school amiga.


Anyways, I'm going to go now; I'll be back when I have more to say. Ciao.
