Heroic law student reveals inner struggle to PostSecret.

PostSecret is an “community art project” where people send in their secrets anonymously on postcards, which are then placed online for all to see. It’s big on Twitter. But, as you may have anticipated, the quality is variable, with contributions ranging from the extremely frightening to the extremely schmaltzy.

Or, in the words of Above the Law: “Every postcard falls into one of two camps: (a) directly admitting they committed unspeakable crimes or (b) indirectly admitting they’re pitiful crybabies.”

This postcard confessional sent in last week by a law student falls into the latter category, with a healthy dose of narcissism added on the side.
