11 New Year’s resolutions that law students have already given up on

Ain’t nobody got time for that

1. ATTEND 9AM LECTURES

FaceTime counts, right?

2. PAY ATTENTION IN SEMINARS

It’s possible to do more than one thing at the same time, really.

3. BRING THE CAFFEINE HABIT UNDER CONTROL

It was a matter of weeks before you realised 2014-level caffeine doses continued to be necessary in order to function.

4. BE LESS OF A LEGAL KNOW-IT-ALL

It’s difficult when crap like Broadchurch is all over TV.

5. STOP LEAVING EVERYTHING TO THE LAST MINUTE

Arghh! The vac scheme deadline is on Saturday and I haven’t made a single application!

6. CUT BACK ON SOCIAL MEDIA

Until you realised memes were your main source of legal knowledge.

7. EAT MORE HEALTHILY

I have to tackle hours of land law — a quinoa stuffed wrap just isn’t going to cut it.

8. GET MORE SLEEP

It didn’t stipulate that the location for sleep had to be in a bed.

9. DRINK LESS ALCOHOL

You made it four weekends without a drink — time to celebrate, surely?

10. BECOME MORE COMMERCIALLY AWARE

Subscribing to The Economist is not, disappointingly, the same as reading The Economist.

11. STUDY IN EFFICIENT, HIGH-INTENSITY BURSTS

Separation of powers, la la la la la …

2015 is shaping up to be …. rather similar to 2014.
