(no subject)
i haven't updated this in a while. that is due, in great part, to me not having anything to update about. i dated a girl for a brief while. i worked at a pizzeria near me. i looked for a real job. i gave up looking. i started writing a novel. my computer crashed. i quit writing on it. i started studying for the lsats in earnest. i fixed my computer. i played a lot of video games. and that about wraps it all up.
so i take the lsats on saturday, one week from today. this worries me. in the months since i've been reviewing and studying for this exam, i haven't improved my score at all. if i do well, i'll have a chance (an off chance, yes, but a chance) at a top 15 law school. more probably, i'll go somewhere higher on the list. i'm looking into schools in the far west, particularly in the pacific northwest (most notably the university of washington, in seattle). i'm not yet sure that i want to go to law school though. i'm still contemplating reapply to the maxwell school and earning my mpa (which i should probably be doing right now). and i'm looking into alternative teaching certification programs such as teach for america and the nyc teaching fellows program. i really have no idea, and this frustrates me. i want to teach at the college level, but i want to do things between now and then to gain experience and credibility. all i know is that this current way of doing this isn't working at all. i need to find a job to last me through the end of this year, and that will undoubtedly come about in the retail world. after that, i have great hopes of moving to albany to take up a job with the new york state assembly, but i have no idea about that yet. i'm still in my tiny apartment in ellis hollow, but i need to move from here soon. i will attempt to convince my landlord to let me break the lease this week. this won't be a pleasant conversation.
sage advice is greatly appreciated; feel free to leave me some.
