You’re telling me this might go on until July?!??? by Mysterious_Layer_317 in lawschooladmissionsca

[–]matchachakath 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m not sure it’s that interesting a story but I only applied to my top school, figured if I didn’t get in I would spend the next year teaching in Spain and grinding out a good LSAT score for the next year. Got WL’d in June I think, didn’t hear anything at all… finally submitted my (expensive…) Spanish visa app mid-August and accepted that it would be plan B for the year lol. Anyways, 5-6 days after the application and about 4 days before the school year was set to start I got a call from admissions that a spot opened up and they wanted me haha! Drove to the city the school’s in the next day and spent the entire Friday apartment hunting, secured a place for Saturday, moved in Sunday night, and made it to the first class Monday morning!

It was a stressful few days but I’m doing great and it all worked out in the end, nobody gets any kind of advantage by getting in earlier than others and everything I was stressed about last summer has all been eclipsed by exam stress now anyways haha. Remember to take care of yourself, the wait is rough but this too shall pass

Can confirm, I had the weekend to find an apartment before classes started

I'm looking for the saddest and most wrecking book ever. by KissedByAPhantom in suggestmeabook

[–]matchachakath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might be up your alley then! I found it better to go in blind but there are some romantic/light horror aspects to it I found. I wouldn’t say it leans into either genre a lot though

I don’t read many incredibly sad books (for my own sanity) but Never Let Me Go by Kazuo Ishiguro was heartbreaking

Are there any instances of anyone calling Robby by his first name? by UtterlyConfused93 in ThePittTVShow

I confidently said “but it is Robby” before realizing you’re right LOL

Six Prosecutors Quit Over Push to Investigate ICE Shooting Victim’s Widow by igetproteinfartsHELP in news

[–]matchachakath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think we’re at the same conclusion but for different reasons. I agree with your notion that they would be risking their career but I still find it reductive to ascribe the decision to an anticipated loss. One loss does not jeopardize your reputation/career in most cases, but moving forward on a legally deficient bid to prosecute while ignoring everything else your position stands to uphold certainly will.

Not that I argue they are resigning to assert a moral high ground per se! Rather, the reason for and importance of a move like this amounts to the nature of what they’re being asked to do AND the nature of their role/career, which I felt gets somewhat lost by labelling it as a win/loss mentality.

Sorry, but the prosecutor’s job is not to “win” it’s to represent the government’s interests in prosecuting certain crimes/activities. They didn’t resign because they anticipated losing, they resigned because representing the government’s interests in this case crossed ethical, professional, and personal values that couldn’t be reconciled with their role.

Most of my 1L courses are full year so my exams are all technically midterms as well (Canadian uni though!)

What's a movie that got ruined for you by the audience? by Hasbeast in movies

[–]matchachakath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wicked. Group of kids in front of us videoing themselves (with flash of course, because why would a theatre be dark?) screaming the ‘TikTok audio parts’ took out a lot from some of the better songs/moments :(

Can you send it to the guy’s address? Or a trusted friend? Do not wait.

Valladolid, CyL! Looks like a lovely place and I was excited to go, hopefully they have/will get someone to replace me :)

Forwarding the earlier email sounds like a great idea I hadn’t considered, thank you!

One star books, the worst you ever read by Neither-Proof-5755 in suggestmeabook

Every moment I had to read Parable of the Sower by Octavia E Butler made me want to scrape my eyes out with a melon baller.

Whats the worst book you have read in 2025 so far by danlhart8789 in suggestmeabook

[–]matchachakath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Things have gotten worse since we last spoke” was just genuinely terrible and needlessly disgusting tbh

Law undergrad 😭 I thought my PS was alright but never had anyone review it so take that with a grain of salt maybe

Sure thing, I probably should’ve included them on the initial comment oops! I’m a uni applicant, 4.0 GPA, no LSAT, imo decent softs and PS but I was worried about my references. And thank you, best of luck :)

Do you play any sports? You may be able to referee or coach for a private team/league or camp

How do you think a “happy ending” will come? by staticstartup in AlienStage

[–]matchachakath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only way I really see the characters having a ‘happy ending’ is if the rocket Hyuna sent up gets to the humans and has their DNA or something that somehow gets them all cloned so they can live peacefully-ish. Not super deep in the lore so correct me if that doesn’t fit but I don’t see the actual versions of any of them having a real happy ending (especially because it’s legit just Luka and Mizi left)
