So, yesterday, one of my teachers asked me, "So, Ashlee, when do you plan to take the LSAT?" and my response was, "Um, I don't know. Next semester or next fall, I haven't decided."
But what puzzled me then (and still does) is how she knew I'd made that decision. I haven't really said anything specific on Twitter (and that's where she could have seen something). I suppose my blog could have a farther reach than I think it does, but who wants to read this drivel?
Then today, I asked that same teacher if she'd gotten the e-mail with my assignment attached to it. She said that she had, and I was like, good, I have to send it the night before the deadline because I have class from 9-1 on Fridays. Then she said something akin to this: "Yes, well, you must have time management working for you, 'cause I've seen your grades."
I asked her if she were doing research on me, and if so, what for? All I got was, "Yes. You could call it research."
Cryptic much?
I mean, does she mean my semester grades, or my overall grades? (Not that those really have any major differences between them, except some are pluses and some are minuses and some don't have little marks afterward.) What does that even mean? And research? Whatever for? *cue epic music?*
More later.
That teacher says, "So, because God has a delicious sense of humor, here I am. On your blog. For the first time. Because evidently we both read and comment on Dr. Higgens' blog. I had been praying for you earlier in the semester about law school and God must have been using me to remind you of His pride in you, how He delights in your studies being a bright light shining from the city on a hill." Keep on living the questions and writing and praying through them. It's the only way I have found to navigate anything in this life....
ReplyDeleteUm, God does have a delicious sense of humor. As for reading Dr. Higgens' blog, I was her reader in 07-08, then went out as an SM and when I came back, she's how I got my job at the Writing Center, which I've kept since then.
ReplyDeleteAnd, thanks. Definitely have needed the encouragement as of late.
Hmm. Not drivel. Research? Interesting.
