So I've been busy getting my law school application research process on and I have not had enough time to post. In the research process, I was able to obtain materials from at least 50-60 different law schools all across the country. However, my fabulous best friend (also known as Mom) is helping me sort through all of them. With her help, I'm building a list of those to apply, and now have to start work on the ever-influential personal statement. If you've ever written one, please help! I need some kind of formula to do it and there seems to be none.
But thanks to a friend, I've been able to create an online store, check it out here, so people can buy the musings that I've always wanted on tee shirts. The store will grow, and hopefully the money will grow. Most of it is going toward the trip to Europe. So if you want to support me, but want to feel as if you've not just given away something for nothing...buy a shirt or mousepad or hat. Keep checking it, because it will grow as I get better and quicker able to create shirt worthy slogans. The "InSane McCain" ones seem to be the most popular. My favorite is the green one. I'm getting one to put on my pillow.
Anyway, the ex Mr. Wonderful read the entire blog. In one day. He literally sat down and read the entire thing. I'm still tripping on it. He said that he was glad that I didn't write him up to be a complete asshole, and that it made him realize how much I loved him. He liked it, and some of the blogs that weren't about him, he thought were. Just goes to show you that some guys are still somewhat self-centered. Anyway, he's gotten a login here, so he can comment and even write posts. He said he's gonna write one, but we'll see. And he does love the nickname, Mr. Wonderful.
My other ex boyfriend is tripping. Big time. But that's an entry for later this week.
Thoughts?

There's no formula for a personal statement. You just have to "make it real" (as my German-American professor always says for no reason).
Tell them YOUR STORY and how it relates to you choosing the law profession. Of course you must adhere to basic rules of grammar. That's a no-brainer. But after that, tell them who Ashley is, and that's your key to get in.
Congratulations in advance for the good things headed your way.
Tell the ex-boyfriend that I'm proud of him for having faith in you. It takes a big man to not make a big deal out of a blog.
