Lawcest, Redux

So I realized recently that this blog is on the first google results page for people who search for the word "lawcest."  And there is ALWAYS someone who has found his/her way here by searching for lawcest.  Whether that's advice about whether to commit lawcest, what to do if you find yourself in a sectioncestual situation, or legal porn (ew), I have no idea, but I feel as though I must throw something out there:

I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!!

There, I feel better.  It's like a delightful and honest disclaimer.  That having been said, LAWCEST LAWCEST LAWCEST.  (Also just realized that I wrote that post almost exactly one year ago.)

I would like to return to the topic of lawcest quickly and make a few more points.  I know I was down on the idea the first time, but I have new and different feelings.

  • Dating someone from ANOTHER law school could be an excellent idea.  It's like networking!  With dinner and movies!
  • Lawcest is still a bad idea for 1L's (in my opinion).  Really, focus on your studies and get used to the world.  That person?  Will still be there next year.  It's the joy of law school.  You're stuck with these people for THREE YEARS.
  • Lawcest could be a GREAT idea!  Especially if everyone is expecting you to commit it and you're just not getting around to it.  Seriously.  The rumor mill requires fodder.  (Essentially, you will be committing lawcest for everyone else's amusement.)
  • You're still too busy to see each other, so the relationship can't get stale too fast!
Fine.  Not my best post.  It's Friday guys and I slept in and I'm hanging out with the Boy all day.  Must finish article this weekend.  Sigh.
