Enjoying a rare flex day which I had originally planned on being a study day, but given the record breaking temperatures outside I’m debating on whether or not to brave the elements and head into the school. its already 98 or something with heat indexes pushing 107, not expected to subside at least until 10:00pm tonight. Have to say that I am fortunate for living in a nice cool basement with central AC, it makes life a lot more bearable, especially when you read all the reports of people coming down with heat stroke, and others dropping dead.
Been extremely busy these past couple of weeks, it dawned on me recently that I haven’t had any amount of a summer vacation, something that might come and bite me in the ass later as school starts up again. Just last night I thought about moving my class schedule around to make it more manageable, being that I took summer school I could feasibly lower my credit load so that I would reserve two whole evenings for reading, and have classes two nights a week. One observation I have had about going to law school at night is the grueling schedules, especially with a full time job and other commitments.
Still can’t get over the fact that I was taking 11 credits last semester, just 1 credit short of the minimum load for a full time, day student. That seems kind of crazy to have that much to cover in a single semester almost entirely on the evenings and weekends. A bit amazed that I was able to pull it off and not go totally fucking insane.
Looks like I survived alright, and learned quite a bit in the process. One of these days I’ll get around to writing about more of the experiences and observations, might be a worthwhile long term project. I still need to work on converting this site into a blog format, its become a work in progress.
