Damp Ankles

That's exactly what the first week of law school feels like. You're about to swim across a river you've never crossed before, with unknown and unpredictable currents and obstacles. Up to your ankles is about as far as you get after the first week - after all, you're just getting into the water. But the anticipation is palpable all around. Because you don't swim this one alone - a few hundred others are jumping in at the same time (along with tens of thousands across the country) and just as in any group swim, this can multiply the dangers.

Damp ankles just about sums it up.
