Surprise! I'm still kickin'. Law school is excellent and now half-over. I'm working at a law practice that focuses on felony defense and is quite fun. I have two cats and an Xbox360. That's really all you need.

Now I can put my finger on why I don't like Topeka, it's just like Olathe, gross.

I have one of those "somethings gotta give" moods where I clearly need to add or purge something, yet I have no idea what, I've been in a malaise for days.

I just watched the UCLA video and I want to puke. Those cops all deserve battery charges on the kid and assault charges on the people they said they'd "taze" for asking for their badge numbers, fucking pigs.

WTF Matt still posts? What a douche.

Anyways, school is great. Law School was entirely the correct decision, and thus far I am excelling. I am uber excited for the congressional results, and I am generally quite a happy man. Huzzah.

Love Matt

1 Week of law school done. It is exciting, horrifying, anxiety-inducing etc. I'm really diggin it, and I think I'll do well. Wish me luck.

for those who don't know, I'm chillin beachside in my Minnesotan cabin. Fishin, swimin, drinkin, it's the life my friends. I'll be back late this week, not sure exactly when.

Two things

1. If anyone has anywhere I should visit in Topeka be it park/museum/shop/restaraunt etc. please let me know. My wanderings have already proven more fruitful then expected, but why go wandering when someone could hand you a map? (not expected to be answered!)

2. I am seriously considering making an attempt at learning guitar. Yes I know it's hard and I will throw a fit or two, but I don't care, I feel a void in my life musically, and I wish to fill it. Anyone have a good idea regarding obtaining a type of guitar or a place to do it?

That's all, for now. For those of you who don't know it, I'm free for two weeks, lets have some fun.

The march of life

2006-07-17T03:39:56Z

A few things..

My apartment flooded early last week, it is now uninhabitable.

My car broke down yesterday, it is now moderately drivable, at best.

My home base is now Topeka, get used to it.

To all those who don't know this, sorry, maybe you should call me more often.

Love,

Matt

the Achiever
Test finished!

you chose AZ - your Enneagram type is THREE.

"I need to succeed"

Achievers are energetic, optimistic, self-assured, and goal oriented.

How to Get Along with Me

Leave me alone when I am doing my work.

Give me honest, but not unduly critical or judgmental, feedback.

Help me keep my environment harmonious and peaceful.

Don't burden me with negative emotions.

Tell me you like being around me.

Tell me when you're proud of me or my accomplishments.

What I Like About Being a Three

being optimistic, friendly, and upbeat

providing well for my family

being able to recover quickly from setbacks and to charge ahead to
the next challenge

staying informed, knowing what's going on

being competent and able to get things to work efficiently

being able to motivate people

What's Hard About Being a Three

having to put up with inefficiency and incompetence

the fear on not being -- or of not being seen as -- successful

comparing myself to people who do things better

struggling to hang on to my success

putting on facades in order to impress people

always being "on." It's exhausting.

Threes as Children Often

work hard to receive appreciation for their accomplishments

are well liked by other children and by adults

are among the most capable and responsible children in their class
or school

are active in school government and clubs or are quietly busy working
on their own projects

Threes as Parents

are consistent, dependable, and loyal

struggle between wanting to spend time with their children and wanting
to get more work done

expect their children to be responsible and organized
