Decisions

I have to make a decision on where to go to law school. Like, now. Actually more like last week. But I keep putting it off because I DON'T KNOW WHERE TO GO. BYU is obviously a very logical choice. I have family there, I have friends there, it is a great school, and it is AMAZINGLY cheap. However. It turns out being a woman is getting me very far. I am getting accepted to schools better than BYU. So far I haven't gotten into any that are crazy better, but just a few spots higher-ranked. I'm just waiting to hear back from Indiana (ranked 27 or 26 or maybe 28?), and then I'll make my decision. (Before I was "just waiting to hear back from Arizona" before I made my decision. Notice a trend? I'm a champion procrastinator.) I set the deadline for myself that if I don't hear back from Indiana by March 25th I am going to commit to BYU.

I'm also trying to decide which type of law I want to pursue. Originally, I thought I wanted to do family law, and I haven't exactly ruled it out, but lately I've been looking more at criminal prosecution or international human rights. It sounds very impressive, doesn't it? I have to admit I work it into conversation whenever possible because I like sounding smart. Yes, I am pathetic. No, it doesn't bother me much.

Decisions of other kinds...well I don't have many. Daily, I curse the decision of what to wear in the morning. I usually go with jeans and a sweatshirt because I am tired and it is cold and why bother looking cute when I cover it all up with 3 jackets anyway? Deciding what to eat is actually not much of a hassle, because I never buy food, so options are limited. I hate grocery shopping. I'm not a starving college student because I'm poor; I'm a starving college student because I'm lazy. Ridiculous.

It's warming up! But it's still cold. And it will probably snow at least two more times before it's really spring. I don't understand why people are so worried about global warming. All the polar bears could just move to Rexburg and be fine. In fact, I frequently wish global warming would speed up so it will hit Idaho. Is that bad?
