( i was the second commentator) I gues...i hear you. ( i was the second commentator) I guess i don't understand why you would even use your blog to justify someone elses skewed view of you. total waste of time.<BR/> i thought yoga would have taught you that by now. Though i must give you kudos-- with the exception to that bog war craziness-- your blog and your view of yourself and yoga has gotten a lot better over the many months I've sat and read you7r blog.<BR/>congrats.<BR/><BR/>p.s. the SAT's were and are definately still biased towards us middle class whites folks for sure, in more ways than one.

I took the SAT's without benefit of a review course, for example. That said, I am white, and it has been said that the SATs are biased towards whites. Not sure how that works, but I can accept that I had an advantage. Advantages aside, you still come into adulthood with choices to make. And I made the choice to work my ass off and put myself in a favorable position, as favorable as I could. I could have had a trust fund and made that into something favorable too. I could have no education and made it into something favorable. I did what I could with the tools that I had, and the point I was making is I am not someone who didn't make her own way in the world. That's all...Yoga Chickiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01370141306007721604noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13149662.post-18525907198816140632007-04-04T15:53:00.000-04:002007-04-04T15:53:00.000-04:00try never have been cut off, as there was never an...try never have been cut off, as there was never anything to be cut off from. try growing up in a one parent household with absolutely no guidance. You just continued the same track your parents were already on. They set up a good foundation for you. Try making it in the world with zero foundational support.... thank the lord that your kids will never have to know that.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13149662.post-73213925719954254612007-04-04T15:27:00.000-04:002007-04-04T15:27:00.000-04:00let me preface this by saying that i actually enjo...let me preface this by saying that i actually enjoy reading your blog, and generally like what i know of you from the blog world, but-- <I>"It was a year ealier, when I was called upon to pay for a significant portion of my own legal education with student loans."</I> this implies that you were NOT called upon to pay for... the majority? a significant portion?--of your law school education. so somebody else paid for that. having someone else pay for your graduate education--the majority of it, or any of it--is pretty sweet and not to be taken for granted. it certainly wasn't an option for me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
