Waiting

So at this point I am waiting for LOR's. This is really stressful because this part of my application is out of my hands. Add to this that one of my writers is having the busiest time of his life and I am fairly nervous that something might get forgotten.

In the spirit of this I have made a list of 5 things to do to pass the time at college while waiting for LOR writers to get your stuff in.

5: Watch every episode of Family Guy.... twice. I am convinced that college students keep tv show box set profitable. Need to pass the time? What better way than watching 30 hours of the same tv show. Sure the jokes aren't related to the plot, but what better way to pass the time then the random collection of punch lines that is Family Guy?

4: Watch 24 in real time: Similar to the family guy marathon, watching a season of 24 in real time (one full 24 hour day) adds a new level of authenticity to the show. Large supplies of sugar are needed and bathroom breaks are recommended during the time that was supposed to be used for commercial. Do this and you have knocked a day off of your wait.

3: Actually do homework for a class. Sure your grades have already been sent, but if you end up on waiting lists wouldn't it be nice to show a GPA improvement? After completing #4 you will no doubt be behind in at least one if not all of your classes, so why not take some time to catch up, open the books that cost you $500 + and overachieve a little.

2: Hit on somebody of the opposite gender. From what I hear law school isn't super condusive to dating, so take this time to go out to a bar or other place of interest and chat up an attractive male/female. With any luck you will get a phone number and develop a new way to kill even more time. Don't get too attached however, in a few months you will be leaving for the ultimate relationship killer, law school.

1: Exercise. I'm sure will all your worrying and application polishing you probebally haven't gotten outside to go for a jog. Take this time and enjoy the outdoors before the weather turns horrible. Play a game of touch football, go for a jog or find some friends for sand volleyball. Whatever your activity of interest is, go out, get some sun, and exercise!
