It’s been a while since I’ve written here, so… hello everyone! Finals can be stressful, especially during a pandemic, so this winter break felt like a breath of fresh air. I had time to digest that this is my LAST YEAR. I say it and I cannot believe it as it seems like I started law school yesterday, but as they say all good things must come to an end. As I write this, I can’t help to think about how law school has changed me (for the better, of course).
After law school, I have learned some things:
After being cold called a LOT, I can say that I am not afraid to be wrong.
After meeting a lot of people with different backgrounds, I can say that differences make us stronger.
After having to take multiple exams, I can say that how you did on an exam does not determine your knowledge on a subject matter.
After many all-nighters, I can say that working harder does not necessarily mean that you are working smarter.
After ditching that date with friends and or family, I can tell you that taking a three-hour break won’t affect your grades.
After doubting myself and making it, I can say that everyone is more capable than they think. Confidence is key!
