The CRASH After Finals

Wow. I knew I was burning the candle from both ends during the semester but I had no idea how hard I would fall apart after finals. I basically went home and then didn't leave my bed until this week. Well, except for Christmas Day.

I've read over 60 books since my last final. I wish I could say I was exaggerating but I counted. 60 full length books! The number of hours I spent reading all those books must show how few hours I was actually out of my bed. Very few. 

Since my medical bills this semester ate my flying home budget, I really wasn't planning to do anything for Christmas. I mean, I'm here in Florida by myself and my family is 3,500 miles away. What was the point of celebrating by myself? However, a friend from law school was horrified and dragged me to her family's house. I'm glad I went. They're Italian so I had a ravioli dinner and wine. Lots and lots of wine. 

School starts in six days and I am so not ready. I have my books but haven't opened them. My house is a mess and my dog has fleas. It is time for me to pull up my big girl panties and get to work.  

Here's to my second semester of law school!
