I never really had a chance to get comfortable with this whole blog thing before a little something called Hurricane Katrina decided to destroy my city. It makes for a less than exciting story, really. It's more sad. Especially with the worst of human nature being brought out in those remaining behind. It makes all other inhabitants of New Orleans embarrased. The whole thing is really beyond human fathom, the wholesale destruction that has overtaken this unique and beautiful city. And with everyone you know scattered to the winds, transient and alone, you try desperately to discover where your life is supposed to go.

You don't know when things will return to normal in New Orleans, or when you'll be able to go home. I guess I'm one of the lucky ones. My girlfriend and I escaped Nashville and are staying at her aunt's house. We're looking for law schools to attend temporarily. It's all so sudden as students rush to get the few openings at choice schools. It's chaos. I gotta go, this is bumming me out. || posted by mW @ 5:21 PM
