Awww! Yeah I quit work a little early so I could have some time to travel. I'll be going to Europe, haven't quite narrowed down the specifics yet (depends on my traveling buddies :D )
Awesome! I'm under contract for a project that won't be done until after law school starts probably...but I'm doin' that whole "I'll stay as long as I can" sorta thing...lol

LOLOL. Some of us have been working for a while now, forgive me if I'm not impressed by your preftigious 'full time summer job' :lol: :lol: I have no UG debt and I'm using my own savings to pay for what will likely be my last long-term travel trip before I retire. Don't be bitter just because some of us were smart and took time off to save up money before law school. ;)
I'm in the same exact position crumpets! So glad I took 2 years off to work FT and save money..

Taking a promotion at work and saving $$, getting engaged, moving to Atlanta. Oh, and decorating. Lots of decorating once I get there and moved into our new house.

Props on the OP

About 3 months. Moving, then once I'm settled in, lots of biking and working out, cooking, catching up on some reading I've been meaning to do, maybe making some money, definitely relaxing. Looking forward to it.

And maybe reading GtM :oops:

My copy is currently sitting under three GoT books. I wonder which of those I will get to first.
Follow up carefully. The answer probably speaks volumes about your potential neuroticism. :)

MTal, start more threads.

Also my summer has been boring, so I anticipate breaking the 10,000 post barrier.

Mainly, I will be just trying to make my money last until the law school loans disburse. So, a lot of going to the library.

This is a cool thread. Jealous of Crumps and those traveling.

I'll be wrapping up things at my job by July then road tripping through the mountain west and get to California way early. Using extra time to situate and maybe see some places in California (only been there a few times).

Especially if you are moving for LS:

Suggestions for 1-3 weeks before school starts:
- get your eye doc/dentist/physician figured out and get up to date on appts n prescriptions
- get your car (if you have one) checked out/oil changed
- have fun!
- look for connections to alumni in the new city (one alumni I met for coffee the week before orientation started worked at a V10 and was scheduled as one of my interviewers for a 1L SA callback)

Same thing I've been doing for almost a decade...working at a boring job until it's time to move.

Communicate now with those who not only know what a legal education is, but can offer you worthy advice and commentary as you complete the three most educational, yet challenging years of your law related post graduate life.

1. Relax, watch some movies.
2. Read the ubiquitous books everyone reads before law school thinking they will provide a "leg up."
3. Figure out housing plans. (Going to Minnesota, from Illinois, about a 400mi. trip)
4. Not taking my car, so that is nice.
5. Hit up family for some money.


Really, my main concern is housing right now. I applied to Gamma, but am still waiting. If that falls through, some of you TLS folk better be willing to share an apartment with me! :D (and possibly my cat...) Basically, everything that concerns housing and moving is on my mind right now, and probably will be for the near future.

But, yah, just reading those law school books and chillin'..... 8)

Why aren't you taking your car for that short of a distance?

I don't want to have it. Minneapolis has an excellent public transit, plus I want to ride my bike. Also, it will save me on gas money and other car related expenses. I am actually thinking of signing over the title to my parents as a gift. I have an old, 2001 Lincoln LS. They only have one car....

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
Just kidding ... it's still FREE!
