Late to thread.

Doing Asia. Tokyo then 1 to 3 of Hong Kong or Seoul or Taiwan or Bali in very late June to early July. Then backpacking for a month or a bit more through Vietnam and Thailand and maybe Laos and/or Cambodia, coming back early to mid August.

2. Work until August-ish.

3. Work out and get into shape.

4. Read for pleasure

5. Read law school prep-books

6. Get school supplies ready

7. Netfilx binges

8. Spend time with my wife, daughter, and other family.

Full disclosure: I will probably only do #7

Sup ya'll. I'm happy for those who are going to be going to the gym to stay fit- I'm doing the same thing and want to continue in LS.

Here's a website I found: --LinkRemoved--


It's from Mark's Daily Apple. Fantastic resource on eating healthy- but the workout is so great because you can do it w/o a gym-- so when we're all super busy in 1L, we can likely find times at least twice a week for a little bit to get some exercise in to help us stay focused annnd not lose the progress we made in the summer.

On another note- anyone reading the EEs?

You have good taste then. I've been wanting to watch the movie again... this thread has unsuspectedly catalyzed that desire..... feel like a child once more before law school

Heck, I haven't seen a Rita Repulsa avatar around TLS :wink:

This.

And I got a teaching job that they said will be 40-45 hours per week. Just a summer deal, but it doesn't end until the 24th. School starts on the 28th.

Kinda worried, but I think it will be fine. I need the money. Have to eat during 1L.

Envious of those going abroad. Would if I could.

I signed up for my first half marathon so I'm pretty terrified of doing that. But I have so much extra time without LSAT slaying my existence.

I'm also signed up for a half 3 weeks after school starts so depending on where I end up going, I may have to fly to race. Ugh.

Last year, I trained and raced a half through my entire LSAT studying period on top of a full time job and 2 hour daily commute, you'll be fine. :D

Advice: do absolutely nothing, relax, get drunk, play video games, sleep in late. This will be very nice for the few months of summer, then by the time summer ends you will get bored and be ready to start the grind of first year of law school guns-a-blazin'

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.

Read all of the Game of Thrones books.
Go deep sea fishing almost every weekend. (i live in south florida) :D
Trying to get back in shape before I have no life.

Still contemplating when is the ideal time to quit my full time job. It is kinda stressful, and I do need to wind down before school.

Seriously? What are you waiting for?

Now there's a charge.
