Seattle and Cincinnati

We arrived home from Cincinnati yesterday after visiting the Law School. The weekend before we went to Seattle to visit that Law School... decisions... decisions.

We have a lot going on right now with trying to choose between these two schools. It seems pretty clear cut-- Seattle, right?? Beautiful, closer... but unfortunately it's not that easy. Cincinnati is ranked quite a bit higher, statistically the job opportunities post school are better and they've been around for almost over 170 years! However, there is always a pretty good chance you could end up in the state (or near the state) you finished school in so we'd rather end up in Seattle. However, Cincinnati may have more connections and cost of living is cheaper! :) Needless to say... we've got our hands full. To throw a little more stuff in the mix we are still on the waiting list for BYU and Arizona. BYU has been known to let people know they're in the day before school starts! So... stay tuned... hopefully we'll know sooner than later. This whole experience has made us so grateful that we get to pray to Heavenly Father for help. We're glad we're not having to do this on our own.

One more thing... Jack was seriously an ANGEL on both trips. He was so good on all four plane rides and was so patient in the car while we searched and searched for places to live. He is seriously the best little boy. Not sure how I got him and I have a feeling it won't last :) But we'll enjoy it for now.

We stayed with Jason's sister (Jessica) and her husband (Trevor) while in Seattle. They were so awesome and showed us all around Seattle, the Law School and took us apartment shopping. Thanks so much you guys!

This was a beautiful, tree covered trail that is right behind their apartment... it takes you to this awesome grove and park (below)

This is the University of Cincinnati. It's really a neat campus.

There were a lot of scary areas in Cincinnati but there was also a lot of cool ones. We found this beautiful old town home for rent in a place called Marimont. All of the streets were lined with huge, old oak trees and it was just such a cool area.

How cute is he! He's sitting up all by himself now. This was after being in the car all day long too.

What's on that LSAT test?

"So... what is on the LSAT test?"

I have a lot of people that have asked me that question, so I thought it would be fun to post an actual LSAT question to show everyone and see what people think.

If you can answer this question correctly and quickly (around 1 and 1/2 minutes to 2 minutes) maybe you should consider law school! Just try!

----------------------

1.) Any writer whose purpose is personal expression sometimes uses words ambiguously. Every poet's purpose is personal expression. Thus no poetry reader's enjoyment depends on attaining a precise understanding of what the poet means.

The conclusions can be properly inferred if which one of the following is assumed?

(A) Writers who sometimes use words ambiguously have no readers who try to attain a precise understanding of what the writer means.

(B) Writes whose purpose is personal expression are unconcerned with whether anyone enjoys reading their works.

(C) No writer who ever uses words ambiguously has any reader whose enjoyment depends on attaining a precise understanding of what the writer means.

(D) Most writes whose readers' enjoyment does not depend on attaining a precise understanding of the writers' words are poets.

(E) Readers who have a precise understanding of what a writer has written derive their enjoyment from that understanding.

Any answers?? Anyone?
