I am done with law school, my most painful yet human-revolution-inducing three year experience. It hasn't yet hit me, but I will no longer be assessed based on my grades relative to others, save for the Bar Exam. I am no longer a student!
To my surprise, after taking my last exam, I returned to an email notifying me that I will be receiving a law school award. I'm ecstatic, but all I could think of was, this is for my mentor, my friends, family, and for all the SGI members who take care of me with their entire being. I appreciate them so much. What a complete 180 degrees since my first year.
More to come later.
oh my goodness, CONGRATULATIONS!!! no more grades and exams! except that one big one... haha. when are you taking it? it's time to put your expertise to work! so excited for you :)
ReplyDeleteHey Marika :)
ReplyDeleteThanks! I'm taking the bar on July 26 and 27! Please send me some Ds! Gotta keep moving---
I will for sure!! btw, cliff is coming to visit right? i am jealous. my visit to dc has been way overdue and it doesnt seem like i can go anytime soon :(
ReplyDeleteThanks! Yes, cliff is coming, though he hasn't gotten his ticket yet. Need to get a job before he comes so I know my schedule. How's your new job??
ReplyDeleteIt's crazy busy! I never realize 9 hours have passed by at the end of the day. I'm starting to get a better idea of everything but there's still a looot to learn. In the end though I just have to dive in and just do it to really get the hang of it. I was the first one in the office the other day so i attempted to make coffee for the office but since I'm not a coffee drinker I was guessing through the process, and it was a disaster. it was literally a stereotypical new-coworker mistake. It was a little funny though, panicking alone in the kitchen.
ReplyDeleteThat is hilarious!! Yet, it's such a youthful experience! I love it. You get get the hang of things pretty fast so I have no doubt you will do amazing, even with the coffee lol. You're showing such a great work ethic already by being the first one in. I am currently chanting like a mad man to be in your position!
