Important Nonacademic Skills

I've had two weeks to work on it, but I still can't gracefully get out of my car with all my law school gear. On a typical day I have my laptop bag and five or ten pounds of books. With the bag over my shoulder I can get everything in one hand, but even with a free hand I can't get everything out of the passenger seat, past the steering wheel and out the driver's side door without flailing like Mr. Bean. Sure, I could just walk around the car to get my stuff, but I'm convinced that with practice I'll be able to move smoothly from car to campus without opening two car doors.

Compromise: put yer stuff on the driver's side backseat. Two doors, yes, but now with less walking! (nita)
