Hey all!

I'm currently struggling with something that honestly shouldn't even be an issue - I have nothing to do anymore.

I've completed all apps and just (painfully) waiting for the LSAT to come out this Wednesday evening like many of you. I think I'm having issues of just trying to "relax" because honestly I don't know how or what to do that can make me relax.

Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can do either in terms of 1) law school related stuff, or 2) relaxation stuff to keep my mind busy?

much thanks to all!

    Meditate!

    Go back and do what you did for fun before you started studying for the LSAT.

    If that doesn't help: Go for a swim, bike, run, hike, walk, take your kids to the zoo, volunteer at your local food bank, read a book you have been meaning to, binge-watch Downton Abby, try no internet for 24 hours...

    Either way, call your mom and tell her you love her. That always helps.

    Video games. Kills time, brain cells, and stress :smile:

    Or your grandparents! Usually calling grandparents is a good reminder that you're awesome and everything is gonna be okay (because it's true!)

    Maybe go to a bookstore. Maybe with your kids.

    Maybe hang out on the discussion board and help other people out. As someone who has taught for over a decade, I have learned that the only way to really know whether I really know something is if I can explain it to others in their learning style. Also, naps are always a viable choice!

    Start a law school prep class? Or related readings. I've been out of school so long I'm probably going to take a refresher course for grammar.

    Plus you can start researching housing and food costs, budgeting...

    I've literally made a "to-do" list and here's what I've got so far:

    Meditate for 10 minutes each day.

    Bike around my block.

    Follow-up on cousins, uncles, and aunts.

    Play Final Fantasy X and Dragonball Z (going to cost about $80 total).

    Start taking naps to catch up on sleep.

    (maybe) go to Vegas...lol @westcoastbestcoast

    No need to call mother, she's in the living room at the moment :smile:

    If there's any other suggestions, please let me know!

    @stepharizona Will you be enrolling in a prep course? If so, do you have any suggestions and when the best time would be to enroll in one? I've heard of rumors of Larry Law Law, BarBri, and LEEWS as being the best but I have zero knowledge on any of them.

    Apply for scholarships!

    I bought Larry Law when it was a part of or partnered with 7Sage but put my account on hold. I think it's a few month course and access for 12 months?
    So I'm going to start it in May.

    Look up the best places to volunteer in your state. If I wasn't working that's what I would do, as well as hit the gym for 3hrs a day.
