Still working out the details, but a friend and I are thinking of seeing Lenin's tomb in Moscow, hopping on the Trans-Siberian Railway, and seeing Mao's tomb in Beijing.

Seriously considering quitting my job early to live with my parents and spend the summer doing yoga, reading, visiting friends, etc.

Finally told my boss that I'm leaving in May. Feels so good.

Because of your tar, I'm picturing John Watson saying this, and he's very sarcastic about it.

I'd kill for that episode. (John Watson is my SPIRIT ANIMAL.)

…maybe I need to swap out for a Putin 'tar.

Jealous! That's awesome! I still haven't decided when to tell my company yet...I don't want to tell too soon but just the straight up 2 weeks is probably too late

Yeah the problem is I don't want them to say that - I have to work for a minimum of 2 years or a lose my relocation bonus and I'm pretty much leaving at exactly the 2 year mark. If I get kicked out early I'm screwed.

I'll set a date once I know where I'm going, so my office has as much time as possible to find someone to fill my position and I have time to train them.

I am hoping to go to NOLA for Mardi Gras though. Something I was never able to do in UG because I was always working.

law school will have to be paid for in some other way I fear, not making enough to save

I'm thinking two months notice as well. My team plans out the work-load for each quarter towards the end of the previous one, so whenever that meeting comes it's going to kind of force my hand (if I don't want to be a dick and commit to a bunch of stuff for Q3 that I'll barely have time to start). Very jealous of the people leaving (relatively) soon. Six months feels like such a long time...

This.

Of course, some of you are going to ignore this. I know this because I got the same advice and I ended up reading Getting to Maybe and some E&Es before school started. Did it really help? Not really. Exams are geared towards what your professors teach. GTM is a better read halfway through the semester when you actually have some law under your belt.

I wish I had better plans but likely quitting my job in August and moving to wherever I'm going.
