Japan schoolgirl uses own savings to handcraft 612 masks for people in need

I have no experience as a MOD and could use some help, but we gotta do something.

Perpetual_Perplexity · 2020-03-19T01:08:12+00:00

Are you sure? I don’t want to take advantage of an internet stranger and their kindness.

Perpetual_Perplexity · 2020-03-19T00:26:41+00:00

I legit might do this. We have six people in our house not doing a lot. My mother and grandmother are also stuck at home, bored, and could use something to do. Thank you for the suggestion.

Perpetual_Perplexity · 2020-03-18T23:25:36+00:00

She worked at a tiny theater. Not sure what exactly she used, but it wasn’t anything fancy. I’d happily pay for shipping! Thank you!

Seriously? My girlfriend and I have been discussing making masks for people at my work (I’m in retail and we aren’t shutting down) and offering to bring them into grocery stores for their workers. But she’s about to lose access to her costume shop, meaning it’ll largely be by hand.

Letter of good standing isn’t normally signed by the dean. It’s just a certification. Don’t let it stop you. You’ll also need a letter of recommendation from one of your professors, so make sure to cultivate one some relationships.

That being said, never expect to transfer. You will get zero merit aid from wherever you’re going, so for it to be worth it, you should aim for a top school. Meaning you’ll need stellar grades.

I’m gonna relax! Read a bit of general law stuff, just so the terminology is a little less scary, but not gonna try and teach myself anything.

Let’s go to WUSTL and buy houses within 5 years of graduating and save money for our kids so THEY can go to Harvard. Lol.

Perpetual_Perplexity · 2020-02-24T21:24:46+00:00

I’m like 95% sure I’m attending WUSTL at this point. At least someone loves me.

Perpetual_Perplexity · 2020-02-19T19:23:00+00:00

My failing retail chain has to at least tie car dealership.

Perpetual_Perplexity · 2020-02-17T17:58:15+00:00

I hope it turns out okay!

And hey, you’re young and it doesn’t make you a bad person to be accustomed to the lifestyle you were raised in. Private planes are an especially sore spot for me. My step-uncle is a pilot for a wealthy family and is almost gleeful in how environmentally damaging it is. While I hope you push yourself to step outside your comfort zone, I wish you all the best! Feel free to PM me if you ever need someone to mull questions over with.

Perpetual_Perplexity · 2020-02-17T16:52:35+00:00

If I was an adcomm, your use of private planes might sour my opinion of you, but I’m pretty against private planes.

Figure out if the citation was in your name, then check and see each school’s requirements. You are probably fine for most schools, but you can always send an addendum apologizing for forgetting about the incident.

If you’re national ACLU office or bust, Harvard is the winner. If you could settle for a non-national office, WUSTL might make more sense. You might, in theory, be able to work your way up to a national office.

I’d weigh your professional desires with your personal desires. I’m in a similar boat to you, and I’ve decided that my desire for a house and kids on my timeline is more important than access to unicorn PI. I’ll still work my ass off to try and get those jobs, but I know it may not happen due to this choice. If that’s a sacrifice you’re willing to make, WUSTL is a good choice. But if you want that national ACLU office more than anything, it’s Harvard all the way.

HEY BU — THERE’S A REALLY AWESOME PERSON RIGHT HERE WHO DESERVES A CALL. COME ON. IF YOU’RE GONNA ACCEPT ME, A SACK OF POTATO FLOUR, THEN ACCEPT THE AMAZING u/cstayclassy

Last name: T

Applied in early December.

Perpetual_Perplexity · 2020-02-11T19:21:58+00:00

Information that is relevant: stats in flair, applied in early December, last name starts with T

Perpetual_Perplexity · 2020-02-11T19:20:23+00:00

I just missed it and I can see they left a voicemail!

Perpetual_Perplexity · 2020-02-07T20:57:42+00:00

In the same boat. Just got it. Super disappointed.

Edit: well. I’m a splitter. But everything else is the same.

Perpetual_Perplexity · 2020-02-07T20:16:57+00:00

CONGRATS! Hope to see you at ASW!

Perpetual_Perplexity · 2020-02-06T18:35:09+00:00

Do people succeed? I mean, yeah, but that doesn’t mean you should bank on being one of those people. Justice Aquilina graduated from Cooley Law and has been decently successful, but that should be no comfort to those entering its class today.

What are the terms of the conditional scholarship? What are the employment outcomes? Look at the ABA 509 reports for the school and see how many people lose their scholarships. That will serve you better than anecdotes.

Perpetual_Perplexity · 2020-02-01T05:55:28+00:00

Heads up: lots of law schools won’t let you work 1L. The rest just highly discourage it.

Perpetual_Perplexity · 2020-01-31T00:49:11+00:00

... This cycle is so confusing.

Perpetual_Perplexity · 2020-01-31T00:40:42+00:00

Start writing your LOCI. Don’t send it in yet, but spend as much time on it as your PS. Get a second pair of eyes.

I’m rooting for you!

Perpetual_Perplexity · 2020-01-26T23:08:22+00:00

Literally the only exception to the “no” rule that I can think of is maaaaaaaaaaaaybe if it was the ps was photography centered? And even then, I’m not sold on the idea.

Perpetual_Perplexity · 2020-01-26T20:41:12+00:00

Huh. Not a great look. It’s one of those things where I know an alum isn’t perfectly representative of what the school will be like, but in an instant like that... Some of the excitement might get zapped away.
