i saved the world today

Well, hippies, I've just officially survived my first week of law school. I have two words to describe the experience: "What the fuck just happened?"

Actually, and depressingly, it wasn't even a full week, since we had orientation on Monday, and first classes on Tuesday. But it kind of kicked my ass. Tuesday night I was up until 1:30 a.m. just trying to get reading done for the next day. The other nights were a bit easier, but I'm still reading as soon as I get home at like 4:30 until like 11:00 at night, then getting up at 7am and reading for an hour before class. And reading during the breaks between classes. I feel pretty ok about how I'm learning the material, but the amount of it is overwhelming at this point. I've been assured it gets better, that reading starts to go quicker. I can't wait for that to start.

The first song I listened to on my iPod when the last class got over with today was The Eurythmics' (seriously) "I Saved the World Today." It's the weekend, finally...

Monday finds you like a bomb
Thats been left ticking there too long
You're bleeding
Some days theres nothing left to learn
From the point of no return
You're leaving

Hey hey I saved the world today
Everybody's happy now
The bad thing's gone away
And everybody's happy now
The good thing's here to stay
Please let it stay

I'm telling you people... this is a real problem.

weekend awesomeness

A Washington man's karaoke performance of a Coldplay song apparently triggered a female bar patron to attack him early yesterday at a Seattle bar. ... When the assault victim launched into Coldplay's "Yellow," Lawrence allegedly told the man that his "singing sucked" and that the song "fucking sucked." ...It is unclear why Coldplay's music apparently made Lawrence snap, though a famous June 2005 New York Times appraisal by Jon Pareles may offer an insight. The critic called the British group "the most insufferable band of the decade," adding that, "the lyrics can make me wish I didn't understand English."

Klosterman says they're "absolutely the shittiest fucking band I've ever heard in my entire fucking life."

Honestly, you karaoke some Coldplay, you should just plan on getting some shit kicked out of you. I'm going to push for this as maybe like a constitutional amendment or something. Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of listeners to go freak-shit nasty on anyone who karaokes Coldplay. I mean...psssh...come on. Fuck.
