The end of Spring Break...

...and the return of waking up at a "reasonable" hour. I don't happen to know yet if I think that 7 am is reasonable or not, but here I am.

You can call me...

If I had a name like "Dances with Wolves," it would probably be either "Slow-Witted Sack of Fecal Matter" or "Wastes Time All the Time." Whoops. Still, it would depend on who you asked and how much they knew about my horrible procrastination.

LSAT, Take 3

Well, I took it again today. I clocked in with a 163. For my purposes, that means that I have a decent score, but one that probably isn't high enough to get into one of the top law schools. That's not the end of the world. I don't even know if I want to go to law school. I'm still puzzling through it. But, that's that. The next time I'll be heading to an LSAT will be June something, so I'll just do what I can until then.

(By the way, my scoring history with proctored exams has been 161, 158, and 163. So I don't really seem to be moving. Bleh.)

When I visit my girlfriend's grandparents house, I always get a little homesick.

I know she gets the same way. We're both from Mississippi, and we both wanted a big change for college. We both got it.

When we go for a visit to her grandparent's house, it's always provides ample opportunity for me (and for my girlfriend) to think about what is at home.

And that's when I know for sure that it took getting away from home to really appreciate it. Because now I do.

One more try

In eleven hours, I'll be taking an LSAT practice test for the third time. My previous two times were separated by about 3 months during which I did a little practicing on my own. My score did not improve. Tomorrow is really the last chance to either inspire me to keep working toward a higher score desperately before June or to just be satisfied with the score I'm going to get. I actually wouldn't mind it. I don't know if I need all the pressure of one of the crazy schools. Then again, I do kind of get off on it. It's a big quagmire.

Long story - Condensed! If I get roughly the same score (like, if it doesn't go up something like 5-7 points), I'm going to need to do some really crazy re-thinking/reassessing of my post-grad path.

I need to make a list of alternative careers. Writing-centered ones.
