Eloquence

So apparently, I have a way with words.

At one of the summer cocktail events, I was chatting to a rather important person in the legal world, i.e. a judge on the COA from the Xth circuit.

During our smalltalk, he/she asked me why I decided to go to law school at UCLA. And my response, and I quote, was "When I was applying, I heard that law school sucks, so I decided to go to the school with the least amount of suckage."

Not exactly the best answer, I realized as soon as I said it. Making up a word in front of a judge is not smart. Neither is sounding like a overgrown frat boy.

I'm not sure if this is an indication of things to come for me in open court in the future.
