So, as we approach our last few months of freedom from outlines, hornbooks, and all-nighters, what is everyone planning on doing between now and the start of school?

Travelling?
Getting hitched?
Reading for pleasure (what a novel concept after law school...!)
Beach?

Just curious to see how we are all going to use our last few months as mere accepted law students.

Personally, I plan on working (not too hard) and essentially living at the beach, sailing, and drinking.

Looking ahead, I plan on getting in a lot of reading and hopefully traveling for at least a month.

Being a bum. This entails:
1. Chilling with my friends
2. Playing my Wii
3. Watching Maury tell dudes that they aren't the father

My list, in no particular order:

    Master Guitar Hero
    Play lots of World of Warcraft
    Get caught up on The Wheel of Time novels
    Keep reading Drizzt books
    Vacation in Reno
    Vacation in San Diego
    Get caught up on sleep
    Condition myself to never, ever put anything off 'til the end of the semester ever again
    Stop lying to myself about stopping procrastinating
    *EDIT* Oh yeah; take up fencing again!

Working the same job I work part time during the school year, but full time. Traveling out west to Colorado and Utah, should be sweet!

i'm gonna chill, read, do alot of boxing/muay thai, maybe....just maybe get a temp job for a while. It would be good to make a little money, but that'll take away reading and boxing. Tough choices.... I might also take a look at LEEWS. But mostly just boxing and resting...good times.

Either surfing in SD or internship in DC, depending on whether or not I get an internship.

Mostly hanging out, getting settled in Ann Arbor. Might be telecommuting part-time to my current job. Doing a little traveling too! And you know... you can't forget the month of Harry Potter in July. :)

Myself and 3 friends are going to bounce around Europe all summer: Paris, the french wine country, Rome, Amsterdam, Barcelona, Dublin. I figure that should give me enough relaxation and fun built up to last all through 1L

I went to my law schools Open House about a month ago and we had a break-out Q & A and I asked "What should I do before law school? Should I read? Should I study? anything?"
In unison, they all said "HAVE AS MUCH FUN AS POSSIBLE!!!"

SoOoO that is the plan...I am working full-time but have accrued enough leave over the past 2 years of working there that I can take about a month off over the summer. Don't have much money to take a trip to Europe but I am going to have as much fun as I can with what I have.

My husband and I are going to play a lot of golf, I plan on swimming and lounging by a pool (anyones! I am desperate for a pool this summer! :)) and just read, relax and enjoy!!! All of this probably involves a Margarita or Cold Beer :)

HAVE FUN!!

Well, I was going to spend the summer driving across America with my wife, but a funny thing happened almost 9 months ago. So, now I will be spending the summer changing diapers and not sleeping! Not quite the R&R that I had hoped for, but for some insane/masochistic reason I am looking forward to it... (I just hope the little guy is sleeping through the night by the time finals roll around in December)
