when i need you most
see, i told you i'd be back. and quite soon at that. because i realized some things. first, i enjoy sentence fragments. but second, and perhaps more importantly, in an existential sort of way, blogging has become my religion. i've been doing it since jan 2004, mostly on MW (to which i still contribute), while coalm here is my new baby blog (incidentally, elle, this is my 22nd post, so i will hit that thing up upon my next post, which i assume should be soon). but it's not until these more stressful times (read: exams) that i realized the therapeutic value of blogging (or perhaps more accurately, re-realized. after all, this is my 2nd year). blogging allows an outlet for frustrations, musings, observations, and anything else that needs to escape.
for example, as a transfer this year, i had the wonderful pleasure of taking crim pro with first years. being fall semester, they have not taken any law school exams yet, and are scared shitless. its funny really. i cant wait until the pompous know-it-all in front bombs his first exam. arrogantly answering questions all semester as if no other solution is reasonable, his haughty aura of know-it-allism has slowly worn me down all semester.
i further found it comical when our professor told all the 1Ls that law exams are "easy." i think i can confidently say i know a thing or two about a thing or two. and one thing i know is that law exams are not easy. however, that does not mean they're something to be scared of, nor should one drastically alter their lifestyle simply for the purpose of getting those 2 extra points. even several hours later, i cant take what my professor said seriously, and i'm hoping he only said that in some vindictive plan to lure them to thinking it will be simple then bending them over like they were an illegitimate stepchild.
those are just minor examples of my overall point. there's something about the ability to say whatever you want whenever you want, and even get outside opinions if you want, that relaxes the mind and body. so then i guess my god would be...me? after all, i created my blog. i am blogmaster. i make the rules. i can smite people from my blog. i can be the reason for blog wars. my blog is created in the image of my mind, and all my posts originate from it. my holy book is whatever i say, and even if its not logical you have to accept it, and what it says, while on my blog. not to do so would be to face unappealing consequences, including, but not limited to, deletion and becoming the subject of libel.
an important aspect of my religion is my characteristic of all-knowingness. therefore, as god, i have the ability to answer the pressing questions, such as 'do you think there are hummers in heaven?'
to answer, i paraphrase rodney carrington: if i cant get a hummer, it'll be a real bummer. so, in the faith that i follow, you know the chicks swallow. if your halo is glowing then there'll be some real blowing, and it wont be gabriel's horn.
