Law School is BLAH

I know I haven't been posting about school too much this semester, and I recently realized why. This semester is so boring. One of my classes is of completely no interest to me and the other is a very basic review of something I have long ago learned and currently use in my working life.

So I do the reading, take the notes, make my outline, and really not much else. I am not involved with school or any activities there at all, I am not going to the law school prom and I am so busy and preoccupied with all things non-law school related that I just don't have any stories there.

My classmates have gone from amusing and full of stories to equally as disinterested with the process. So many of the people in my night time classes just go to work, go to class, and go home.... not doing much else with school.

Every week my email box fills up with panels and fellowships and whatever else and I just delete it all, or mark it as spam.

I don't think its that I don't want to be a lawyer. I think its just these classes. Maybe everyone else has been there at one point or another.

And Why Would You Clean Your Kids Puke?

Lest you think that the mombie/helicopter parent is unique to the United States, please rest assured that this is not the case.

Really.....horrified that you should have to clean your kids puke? What do you do at home, just leave the puke there? I can understand expecting that the waitstaff in the cafe to clean up after the patrons, as in take the dishes off of the table, wipe the table, throw the trash on the table away, and the like but I don't think waitstaff really should be cleaning up your kids puke.

I cannot imagine any parent I know who would be offended at being asked to clean up after their child's biological waste. Most normal people would immediately jump up, apoligize and ask for napkins and stuff to wipe the mess up with. Not this entitlement queen.

I know when I was a waitress you could not make me clean up vomit, especially not when the person responsible for the little puke machine is right there, not sick themselves and certainly experienced in cleaning up kiddie puke.
