My interactions with my mom are like my spending habits: it's very, very cyclical. I'll spend a whole week not talking to her, then spend the next week on the phone for 30+ minutes a day, each day. This is one of the hyperactive weeks, and the conversations we've had make for a good update on me, since I haven't updated in two weeks:Summer: Taking the LSAT on June 12th. That controls my life until that day, and from June 13th onward, I'm free to do whatever I please until I move back to Austin in early August. In between, I'll be visiting California, Oklahoma (brother), likely New York, and possibly Europe - that is, if my mom decides to travel with me instead of her boyfriend. I'm a fallback plan, but when the fallback gets an all-expenses-paid trip to Europe, I'm not one to complain.Next fall: I have an easy semester coming up, with only 12 hours per semester for my senior year. This coming one, I'm taking my thesis, 2 Japanese classes, and a class on Japanese foreign policy. That leaves me lots of time to make good law school applications, write a great thesis, and pick up a few more extracurriculars. I'll be living on my own in a nice 1-bedroom apartment which will be designed and furnished by mom's boyfriend, who owns a furniture store. Awesome.Winter: I'll be going to Japan this Christmas. I'll most likely spend lots of my time in the areas surrounding Tokyo. This weekend: A banquet, where everyone's dressed nice, and the ridiculous afterparty, which will be the swankiest party in town on Saturday night. Call me.
