+1. If I do any work before the afternoon it is usually in very short bursts and when something is "urgent." Is anything ever really urgent?mwonka wrote:I generally pick one daily task and work on it in evenly-divided 5 minute bursts.

Ditto. The only motivation left is "I really should do something today" and that doesn't kick in until there's maybe 2 hrs left in the day.OhBoyOhBortles wrote:Weird, I usually operate the other way.

+1. Mornings are for answering urgent emails and trolling the Interwebs. Afternoons are for answering emails and doing the work that people would notice not being done.OhBoyOhBortles wrote: +1.

I'm a little scared of how my current work ethic is going to affect my ability to law school.

I applied for on-campus at GULC. I'm leaving Cornell housing up in the air since I live nearby. Hard to deal with logistics until I finally have a confirmed destination.storpappa wrote:Well keep up your spiritsusn26 wrote:Slowwwwstorpappa wrote:Hey USN26 - how is your SP'ing going so far today?

Re: Senioritis / Quitting-my-job-soon-iorits
I was thinking about this walking to work this morning. I've got such an easy life right now. 830-5 that is low-stress, and I just chillax the rest of the day and weekends. Working out, video games, boozing -- this has been the pattern for three years. It'll be such a drastic switch headed back to school. But as someone else said, the fear of poor grades/employment outcomes should make for a fast transition.kray wrote: I'm a little scared of how my current work ethic is going to affect my ability to law school.
The hardest part about heading to school for me is having almost no legitimate interest in the stuff we're going to learn, at least as 1Ls. Everything but con law to me is incredibly boring. Torts, civ pro, crim, property, etc... Snoozeville.

Ugh. There are hardly any good new OT threads today, and the ones there are are the worst. Poor OBOB fighting the good fight to get more info and not much else. I don't even have the energy to back him up today...usn26 wrote:Slowwwwstorpappa wrote:Hey USN26 - how is your SP'ing going so far today?
Even the lounge feels boring.
