WAITING

For me, this year has been a lot about waiting.

Waiting for law school results...

Waiting tables... 

Waiting for my broken heart to heal...

Wait-listed...

Waiting to get over the sting of rejection...

Waiting tables... 

Waiting for my dad's test results...

Waiting for my dad's surgery...

Waiting for my dad to get better...

Waiting tables... 

Waiting for LSAT studying to get easier...

Waiting for my test results...

Waiting tables... 

Waiting for law school results again...

Waiting for law school to start...

Waiting tables...  

I think these slumps happen to everyone. Those times in your life when you just can't seem to catch a break. Speaking as someone who is finally coming out at the other end, it will get better. It may not seem like it and it may take a while, but it will get better. Things will get easier and life will stop sucking the big one. Here's what you have to do...

Grit you teeth and refuse to let it break you. Make a list of fun things to do. Even if you lost someone you love. Even if you lost your job. Even if you didn't get the program/promotion/apartment/trip that you wanted. Even if you're living at home in suburgatory. Even if you're broke. Force yourself to have fun. Here are some of the fun things (big and small) that you can do to weather the storm:

Plan a Vacation with Friends

Start a Blog (that's what I did ;) 

Go to a Local Museum
