Linkskrieg

You know… Linkskrieg… it’s kind of like blitzkrieg; ok, I admit it: I might be going insane.

This post serves absolutely no purpose other than an avenue for me to procrastinate my studying. I have three papers to write and a website to design for my classes. I have two exams which will require an immense amount of studying. I have to manually rebuild fourth months worth of accounting records at work, prepare for a multi-platinum-selling artist’s arrival in a few weeks and somehow convince a grown-man/owner to clean out at least one of his six mailbox slots.

Oh yea and study for the pesky LSAT. At least I’m not taking summer classes as well… crap.

Anyways, here are some links that I’ll be keeping my eye on.

Justin at the TheLawStudentBlog.com has given us this jewel:

So a year of study time should garner me a 167 on the LSAT. If it doesn’t… I will kill myself…. via webcam live on this website. Tune in.

I’m a little concerned because the most recent post I can find from Justin seems to be around 9/17/09 which leads me to believe he might not have made it the full year. We’ll be pulling for you, Justin, to pull off that 167. If you don’t, though, don’t renege on your promise there; webcam-suicides are surprisingly low in the modern age. (Note: Padawan Law does not endorse suicide… we think. Yea, we are pretty sure about that one).

The 170 Project posted this little blurb:

Just got out of my Kaplan class. Bad class. I arrived late thanks to LA traffic and consequently missed the Logic Games review session. Then I picked the wrong order to tackle the Logic Games pacing section. I fell into the trap of wasting close to 13 minutes on the hardest problem and ultimately finished only 2 out of 4 problems. I was disengaged for the remaining two hours, allowing my mind to wander through my imaginary life as a paralegal (not a lawyer) married to my ex-boyfriend from college. Oh. dear.

Reading this did very little to help with maintaining my sanity. If anything, it definitely worsened the prospects of maintaining any semblance of the sort. Other troublesome notes of merit:

  • Five out of seven of her posts contain some mention of relationships, past suitors/boyfriends or love. It is only five instead of seven because I did not count the mention of the MTV TV-show “16 and pregnant” and I did count the default WordPress post as a true post.
  • The last post ends “I am so upset right now. This is not the right response. Not at all…. i need to go to on a drive. Good bye.”
  • She has stopped posting as of Jan 13th, 2010.

Again, we are truly pulling for you, Ms. Jane Doe. From checking out these two blogs, it seems that if I make it past four or five months of posting, I should be impressed. LSAT + Blogging = Insanity?

To those of you actively in Law School and maintaining a blog, I salute you. I know there are plenty of law school bloggers out there, but if you are currently preparing for the LSAT and blogging about it, drop me a line. I’d love to hear from some of you and keep up-to-date on how you are all progressing.

I’m going to go knock out some Logic Games.
