Rhymes With Swimming

I was pleasantly surprised. It was a social commentary on the manipulative power of the media, while itself embodying that power. Packaged as a comedy rather than a documentary, the movie is aimed to reach larger audiences. Thus, the content cannot deviate too much, lest there be accusations of false advertising. But it gave just a bit of information for viewers' interest to be piqued; to find out for themselves more about North Korea. For more in-depth analysis and cogent commentaries, we should all gladly head elsewhere.

Should I apply for law schools this year?

Should I travel and work abroad?

Should I attempt graduate studies?

Everyone is buzzing and swarming. I’m afraid of being left behind. I wonder if I’m ready. If it’s the right time, if I can do it all, if I should wait for my final marks, how research will affect me.

I’ve always wanted to go to law school and to have a legal profession. I want to travel, to experience adventure and loneliness and excitement. I adore philosophy, and know that I would enjoy continuing the discipline. I want to make an impact. I don’t want to be stuck in an ivory tower. I need money. I have student loans to think about. Living on my own is expensive. Education is expensive. Learning a new language and culture would be challenging. I want to meet and make friends with people who have similar interests. I want to be surprised and immerse myself in diversity. I’d like to make a home and not worry about everything fitting in two suitcases. I’m envious of those who have lifelong friendships. I don’t want to miss out on great opportunities. I don’t want to waste my time or money.
