It has been months and months since my blog debuted and I have abandoned it like a stray kitten- trying to find its niche...waiting for it's life to start...Since my epiphany I am proud to say that the grueling law school application process has been complete and I am sitting back and waiting for the raw fruits of my labor to grow. I have been accepted to my safe school in LA, so from this point on, my road to law school is at least secure.
I am still figuring out how to become this woman I strive to be...this fashionable woman with ingenious rebuttals and intelligent remarks in both the superficial and intellectual spheres...I have slowly trickled my attention into the wonderful world of politics via The View (strong women with strong opinions- but often times reaches the borderline of cattiness) and quick once-overs of current political news on CNN.com (enough for me to get the gist and butt into conversations with "yea so I heard..."). I have learned that with Facebook, Tivo and constant internet surfing, I have become a simpleminded voyeur that views the things that entertain and "fast-forward" the things that bore me...and so ADD has become a destruction to my fruitful endeavor to success.
My solution? Read. Yes, boring but it will be a sedative to the hyperactive kid inside me. Reading forces you to focus and understand, which as a result- stimulates my mind and makes me...think. So I am currently reading Malcolm Gladwell's Outliers. It attracted me because it's The Story about Success- a unique approach to how we as a society has come to view this concept and how it can be blemished. I started it yesterday while watching American Idol and have actually taken a slight affinity to Gladwell's ideas. I am a quarter through the book and will discuss in further details when I am complete.
With work being such a bore, I have more time to stop reading other people's blogs and go back to blogging myself!
