A quick run through of my life up until now is as follows:
I went to traffic court for the first time ever, had my stuff sent through an x-ray scanner, walked through a metal detector, then sat for 45 minutes as the judge went through 65 cases in 70 minutes. He went in alphabetical order by last name, so my numbers actually make sense, I swear. You can only go to traffic school to get the point off your record once every 18 months, and I got my ticket in the 17th month after my first speeding ticket ever. For the record, I think this ticket was bogus, but I don't consider it worth fighting over. It's ok I suppose, as I received $200 back from the court.
I've also determined that you don't need to dress up at all for court. At least if it's traffic court. Better to be overdressed than underdressed, though.
I am slowly working on my yuppie uniform, and have obtained a watch for the first time in many years. It's a Citizen Eco-drive, so I guess that makes me an enviro-yuppie of sorts. If I start playing tennis, then it may be time to worry, but I think everything is under control for now.
I somehow find myself in yet another relationship, but I swear it wasn't my fault. I have also been told that I am too overconfident, as if there was such a thing.
Finally, I have taken one practice LSAT under a time limit, and my score comes out to 164. The LSAT is out of 180, with a minimum of 120 apparently. Why this is I cannot even begin to guess, but I digress. A score of 170 or higher will make it possible to go to a top-tier school, and is pretty necessary for me given my undergraduate GPA. 164 is pretty good, perhaps respectable, but it's not good enough. I'm going to destroy my brain this weekend and take one each day. I will succeed or cry trying. Wait, that's not quite right, is it.

Three words: "Die yuppie scum!!"
But then again, I am still planning on taking the GRE and GMAT. I will do this in supposedly one month, and I haven't even started studying past the "A" vocabulary words...
If I'm going to be going to law school, it's almost a prerequisite that I have a yuppie uniform. And the GMAT is almost as bad - you definitely need a yuppie uniform for business school.
As for me, after having suffered one crazy year in England, I have decided enough is enough. No more school for me (at least until I realize that my career will go nowhere special with onlyl a masters in biology).
Trust me, if you want to do research, a masters will only let you hit that glass ceiling that much faster. But I still wish you the best of luck.
I finally got around to watching that video you posted, and that is the most catchy, hilarious thing I've seen/heard in a really long time...I can't seem to get the stupid song out of my head now. And the worst part is I can totally relate to it!!
