Think Like A Lawyer

They say that going to law school changes your way about thinking about the world. Upon finishing my 4th week here, I can safeuly say it's true on many different levels. Here are my guesses of the most frequent thoughts running through the average law student's mind. I could be totally wrong, but if anything, you'll see what goes through my head daily since I've started here. Honestly, I don't know what I thought about before law school but I'm pretty sure it wasn't this:

-Man, if only I studied this hard in undergrad.
-All this debt will be worth it one day.
-I couldn't totally sue for that.
-Mike Shecket is my hero. (just google any case and you'll see)
-Why is everyone around me married?
-Why don't we get an equivalent to a White Coat ceremony like our med school counterparts?
-People really need to stop suing each other.
-Those people with rolly bags are so smart but I'd never get one because I'd rather look cool.
-"That guy" really needs to shut up and stop asking questions.
-Law & Order is so factually wrong (but I still love it).
-Is it time for bar review yet?
-How could so few pages of reading take so long?
-Please don't call on me, I have no idea what your question means.
-I spend more time with my books than with any human being.
-I'm pretty sure I'm reading another language.
-And occassionally...This is really cool.
