So... I guess the "guilty feeling" is real... Forum

I always laughed at people who said one of the worse parts about law school is you feel like you're falling behind doing nothing.

1st week still here, and I've actually had decent amount of things to do... until now. I finished my assignments a lot quicker / earlier than I have been, and now I'm sitting here... feeling weird / wondering if I'm falling behind for doing nothing

Is it that you feel like you are falling behind or not getting ahead when you're not doing something? I feel the latter.

Probably more the latter.. idk I'm not planning on reading ahead that much though really. I don't see how that's that much of a benefit to how I'll do on final in December

Yesterday I was in library until 10 PM (just how long it took)... today it was 2 PM and I didn't know what else I should be doing lol

I think you should go grab a drink or seven. It's still early.

I've been drinking like I did when I was in UG here already... I went straight to get-together after library last night and had a drink or eight

Sounds like you've got the right idea then. No need to worry too much this early in the semester.

Go home. Have fun. If you've done your reading and have a decent understanding of it, then you're done for a while.

Late October and November / December are going to suck. Don't hurry it along.

I agree. I just get done with my readings and think, "Should I be utilizing this time to make the coming weeks easier?" Then I realize how sweet it is to have nothing to do and I do that.

I've noticed that time goes by fast when I'm at the school.
Will this continue to be the feeling throughout the year/years and into actual practice?

Lol, you "laughed" at people who were in law school when you hadn't been yet, and now want sympathy? Maybe you shouldn't be so quick to laugh at other people in the future.

You gonna be okay?

How do you know if you have fully grasped the topic? I am trying to figure out right now if I have fully grasped various doctrines and rules and do not know if I have actually grasped them or if it just appears that way because I learned them this week.

Try doing practice problems in the E&E, or from another supplement.
