What are your plans as far as taking the LSAT / law school?

What the heck do you need to study for? You said you got a 172 on the practice. That's like Harvard-good. What is the normal deviation from the practice to actual? Not to mention you read a lot. That's gonna boost your score better than any studying.
My hobbies...I wish. No, I game for a hobby. I love music more than anything else. Sadly I'm taking after my dad and already have somewhat diminished hearing in my right ear. I did Orchestra for 9 years and really had a love-hate relationship with it. I played 2 instruments though and learned a ton about music. I don't have time in college, but when I graduate and get some money I plan to learn guitar, piano, drums or all three. I enjoy reading but I cannot find the motivation to do it. It's like....Internet or TV vs. reading and I just fold in. Poker has become a new hobby for me but that's still gaming. I enjoy writing though and have means to start a blog. My biggest hobby is procrastination though. I have all this stuff I want to do but I just don't do it. Isn't that bad? I also enjoy watches (

I'm more educated in history and the sociopolitical side of things (see: race, gender, sexuality, psychology). I exercise but it's not really a hobby. I have a love-hate relationship with running and lifting. I mostly love people and movies. I'm a pop culture whore and love to tear movies down and look at themes and symbolism. If I smoked more pot and had a penchant for creativity I'd be an English professor. My ex-hobby Psychology has become my major so I cannot really claim that as a hobby. I also enjoy rambling and long, unorganized paragraphs.
I'm serious about the blog though, and I have a nice list of books to read. It's just hard to find motivation to read stuff after reading through 50 pages of Psychology. As much as I love psychology the text books leave much to be desired.
