12:14p.m.: this is really turning into a marathon. I was up early this a.m. working on advanced crim pro. One of the really difficult processes for me is getting in my head that this last final is the most important thing in my immediate future. The procrastination gene I was born with really wants to push me towards other interests, like learning about which stocks I should spend my tax windfall on, or how to execute a perfect crossover in 2k8. As it stands, one of the best lessons I could learn would be to create a measurably intense focus on this one task for the next six days. That is the way to the A I think. And the process is both difficult for me and foreign to me.

8:45p.m.: takes me all day to read 5 cases? Shameful.

1:24p.m., back in the library, with a stack of books next to me and a huge file of cases ready to read so that I can get caught up in advanced crim pro. I am sitting at a huge table, all by myself, because one of my study buddies is unaccounted for. For now, I am still procrastinating.
(edit: the Iron Man movie out now is amazing. I want that suit!)

3:47p.m.: need lunch, going out for some delicious potbelly or maybe jimmy johns. and then, back to studying until I hit up the court room for one last mock trial tryout. finals is funner when there is non-academic work to distract me from my goals.

I got this from “Jesus” today:
