TheSeaLocust's 1L Anxiety Meditation Retreat & Spa Forum

[Presidentjlh]

Help.

Breathe.

You are a leaf on the wind.

Law school is pointless bullshit and you'll live to tell the tale no matter how it plays out. Tomorrow and the day after are just more days, just more opportunities for adventures and stories and time with friends and family and exploring and learning and testing yourself.

Just another day, just another week. All this stress and anxiety is artificial. It's all just a silly game.

This helped immensely.

Time to get some sleep, and hope for the best.

Random - just encountered these lyrics in a song and kinda liked them. Kind of go along with the leaf in a wind thing:

Our money’s funny, our change is strange
These days ain’t sunny and the sea ain’t tame
We playing games where the rules ain’t clearly defined
In this coffee black world, knee deep in the grind
Be a vine in the shade, a salmon in a stream
Try lookin’ for the stars when examining your dreams

Yes, I am procrastinating

I cried listening to a Passengers song today.

This reminds me of that Ojibwe aphorism, "Sometimes I go about in pity for myself. And all the while a great wind carries me across the sky."

Ks in the bag. Ugh. I feel about as little confidence as I ever have after taking an exam. Probably missed issues, didn't apply law right, whole thing was a rambling mess with no structure besides bolding a few terms. Just ugh across the board. Praying for the curve to save me. It's behind me now. Open book torts on Friday, feel much more confident about that. Gonna get into Hitman Absolution and go get some BBQ and bourbon.

This reminds me of the fact I watched that Sopranos episode literally two days ago. Either way, both are sage advice. So maybe I did bad on a contracts exam? So? I have friends and family, I'm not going to keel over and die because of it. Maybe I'll become a longshoreman, I hear they make a killing.

CIVPRO IS SHIT PURE SHIT OH GOD THAT STUPID DISCOVERY SANCTIONS QUESTION THAT WAS WORTH 25% OF THE EXAM WHEN WE SPENT 10 MINUTES IN CLASS ON IT

Good plan. And in my experience, there was absolutely no correlation for me between how I felt and the grade.

Y'all will be fine. Keep your heads down and grind it out <3

That was so much worse than I expected.

wait until you are a 2L and your preparation is complete shit and your mind feels like a grenade ripped thru it

Most of the exam was stuff that wasn't even on the syllabus. Hopefully I'm better at teaching myself stuff than the rest of my section.

Or a 3L when you walk into the exam and ask yourself "wait, what class is this?"

Actually felt pretty good about my final today. Only thing that scares me is that on only one of four essays did I come within spitting distance of the word limit. I felt like I said everything I needed to say though...

Jesus professors put word limits on exams? What a douche move.
