So let it be written, so let it be done.
After looking over the last few posts, I realized I hadn't officially said that I am now done pondering and we are on our way to George Washington University Law School. It's a really good school and I enjoyed the weekend we spent in D.C., so that's where we're headed. It will also give my wife a lot of options for work (she already has a few leads at NIH to go after) and after school we can decide if we want to continue moving around the world or settle down for a little while. One thing at a time for now, however.
I was also thinking about the goals I had origionally set for myself way back in August. Apparently I didn't set them high enough since I met pretty much all of them... I finished my personal statement and got my applications sent in early, scored well on the LSAT, and got accepted into at least three "Top 25" schools. I don't know what else I could or should have done, since I'm very happy with the way things have worked out. We are both really looking forward to living in a real metropolitan area (New Orleans, I don't think, qualifies). We are planning on a trip back out there sometime near the end of June to find a place to live. GWU is having another new-student-house-hunting-weekend, so we may go then... It's up in the air right now if I'll go alone (save a little cash) or if my wife will come along and again try to have a meeting with someone about possible employment. I would rather she comes along, of course, but it may not work out.
For now, I want to actually start packing some of the things around the house and writing letters of continued interest to my Waitlist schools. Sounds familiar, doesn't it?? Well, this time I'll give it a little better effort. If anything comes up between now and June, I'll be sure to let you all know.
