Baby, I'm a Star!

Well, sort of. Because STEVE SCHWARTZ mentioned me on his blog today. Ahhh! I know most people are going, "Huh, who's Steve Schwartz?" right now, but anyone who's taken the LSAT recently knows what's up. Steve writes an awesome blog about the LSAT (just google "LSAT study schedule" and his blog will be the first thing to pop up...that's how I always find it). He gives such good advice and his posts were super helpful. And slightly brainwash-y. At one point, I was willing to do pretty much whatever Steve told me to do. Like, he could have been like, "Hey, you should rub cow manure all over your face, it won't help one bit with the LSAT, but I still think you should do it," and I totally would have dunked my face in cow poo. My whole body even. So thanks for the shout out, Steve, and for not abusing your power.

On a slightly related note, I am still obsessing over the LSAT. I've been anxious all week and I'm pretty sure I'm going to suffer a minor heart attack if I don't stop thinking about this damn test! So I've decided to start knitting. I started reading The Friday Night Knitting Club by Kate Jacobs and it inspired me to take up the craft. I've knitted like two scarves my entire life, but I dug up this old knitting book and I'm determined to become an expert knitter. When I told my friend this, she suggested that I start wearing only items of clothing I knit...Like, I should start wearing hand-knitted jeans, knitted sweaters, knitted underwear, etc. And I'm totally on board. My first outfit? This awesome vest, to get me in the Christmas mood:

And of course, the one thing a girl can't leave the house without: her Snuggie. Ha! Creepy man not included.

Really, I just want to knit myself some mittens. But unfortunately, I suck at knitting. I think I'm going to have to start watching some youtube videos on knitting because this Learn to Knit in 30 Minutes book hasn't taught me anything. In fact, thus far, my knitting endeavor has made me feel like even more of a failure than taking the LSAT! But on the bright side, in my quest to discover strange yet awesome knitted wardrobe items, I found this website, where you can fork over $185.50 to become the proud owner of this beauty:

I think I'd rather have the Snuggie.
