Oh and my car decided to have its battery drained since I haven't driven it in a few weeks. WHAT? So, now I have to call AAA tomorrow, and apparently drive it once a week. :/

YES! Staedtler Norica's are my favs. Aren't they awesome!? So smooth :D


Yeah, not driving a car will do that sometimes. I'm sure it probably just need a jump. Perhaps the interior light was left on if a door was ajar, or maybe just not driving it caused it. Used to work at a car dealership over the summers, and this was common when the cars weren't driven/started for a week or two at a time.

Idk why I tried to do a timed run through the PT74 games. My proctor just quit working on my laptop and I completely shit the bed.

Printed out a fresh copy and I'll give it a run through in the morning.

Got through the 7sage curriculum today as well. Finally ready to start putting it all together on PTs and drilling sections of weakness after BR.

That sucks! Oh well, give it another go today.

Awesome--Glad you are ready to move on, can't wait to get there myself.

How long did it take you to finish the core curriculum for 7Sage?

Was going to do a PT but I feel like my MBT/SA conditional logic can get better. I'm decent with it but I need to get faster, so I'm going to spend the day doing those and some RC later. Although, for SA questions I never really need to diagram, it's always just kind of intution for me... But with MBT I do, which is weird af to me since MBT seems more straight forward than SA, idk.

Started doing timed sections yesterday. It's such a pain moving from drilling untimed to that 35-min limit :(

Time yourself with a stopwatch for a bit and move through the section as fast as you can as if you only have 35 mins. See how long it took you to do the section and focus on the questions that took you the longest if you go over 35 mins.

Moving out all day. Being lazy as shit on the LSAT, but I think some time away will be helpful to avoid burnout. I can pick back up hardcore prep in late August.

this makes me feel much better about my laziness, I've done virtually nothing these past 2 days, but I have the mental energy to study today (thankfully). probably gonna do another PT tomorrow or Thursday.

Tried to do an old PT this morning. Stopped midway through because I was tired, really hungry, and couldn't make sense of anything I was reading. Definitely need to wake up earlier and get some kind of routine to get my brain functioning properly (bigger breakfast with an appropriate amount of caffeine, maybe a run, maybe a longer warm-up.) Going to give it another shot tomorrow morning, with a different PT.

Key to good grilled cheese = a little mayonnaise spread on the sides that you are going to grill.

Not even joking.

I was up late after a night of debauchery with a friend in NYC. He made these. I was in horror, but they were amazing. I introduced him to the McGriddle (which he thought was disgusting) and he turned out to love them. I suppose you could say we have an overall positive impact on each other.

|| reasoning is boggling my mind. I am currently at 39/40 correct, but I really am not solidly picking anything one way or the other. I'm just kind of like ... well, I can't think of a reason to eliminate it and it feels alright.

Yeah, it really sucks, I called the dealership yesterday and the person I spoke to in service said I can get the key out of my keyfob, but I tried and it doesn't work so I'm going to have to call AAA ugh. I always check before leaving my car to make sure I turned off the engine and the headlights aren't on, so the man told me it should work after a few minutes, but I think I'm going to drive it around for at least 10-5 minutes so it doesn't completely shut down.

With me, SA is intuitive too, but I did those drills and quizzes JY has in the lesson over and over again until I completely had them down. With that diagramming down, I found I can get a SA question in literally ~30 seconds.

Also I listened to one of my favorite nujabes tracks prior to doing the games from 74.


I think I found my new pre-PT ritual.
