So in between readjusting my body back to EST and reminiscing about my trip by looking at my pictures, I go to class. Although the week felt excruciatingly long because of the jet lag, I really enjoy the subject matter of all my classes. There's only one problem...
There is a direct relationship between the appeal of a subject matter and the number of absurd comments made by law students. I don't know what number law school revelation this is, but add this to the list.
Now I am all for class participation and people sharing diverse opinions, but I wish people just thought before they spoke. With subjects like criminal and constitutional law, everyone has an opinion because like torts, they're "sexy" subjects. Who doesn't have something to say on whether drugs should be criminalized or flag burning? My plea to my classmates is not to immediately feel the need to spout of your gut reaction to a subject, especially when it turns into a 5 minute diatribe that makes no sense.
Really, other than that and the fact that I have so much work already, I am enjoying my second semester. I just thought I would give my friends going to law school next year (and others who might be entertained by the quirkiness that I live in) a heads up because I have the feeling all schools are like this.
