So what did I do today? Nothing. I had big plans today too. *sigh * Mypost-exam exhaustion was more serious than I let on, a week and a half after the fact. The only cures are Law and Order: Criminal Intent, chocolate and sleep.
As a result, I may have to push my LSAT Schedule a little further back than I would like, but these are the stories of my life. Thank God for the scheduled ‘Catch-up Weeks.’ I am leaving on a little class field day across the Atlantic in two days. I was holding out that between the Eyjafjallajökull’s Ash and British Airways strike-loving crew that I would get off scot-free to buckle down on a routine of writing, job seeking and LSAT. Anyways, I am counting our blessings and making it work.
Hopefully, by Thursday, I would be able to put in at least three hours of LSAT in between the hairdresser and packing. During my long plane ride, I have to put in at least five or so hours with my LSAT books and the rest on working on my thesis. Tomorrow is scheduled as the run-around day.
In other news, in between the 1009334 terrorist attempts in Times Square New York and the sporadic once a month natural disasters around the world,
- UK managed to agree open a new PM, a Torie, David Cameron leading a coalition government.
- EU agreed and approved a 440 billion Euros plan to stabilize the European’s shaky economies.
- China has rebounded into a trade surplus * surprise surprise*
However, the nomination of Elizabeth Kagan for the newly open seat of 90-year-old, highest GPA in Northwestern Law School, Justice Stevens. Even tho, I was tad disappointed that the nominee wasn’t a person of color, it was quelled at the fact that she is woman, with an activist background. On the ironic side, I was so disillusioned at the fact that if Kagan is appointed, the US Supreme Court would now consist of three Princeton undergrads and all from Ivy Law School graduates – 5 Harvard Law, 3 Yale Law and 1 Columbia Law. When you really analyse this little statistic, it speaks volumes about how seemingly like-minded these ‘interpreters of the Constitution ‘ really are or could be… A thing that makes you go ummmm….
Time for some winks of sleep.
