Law School

In case you guys haven't figured it out... I really really REALLY dislike law school. It sucks the life out of you. It stresses you out beyond measure. And when it seems like it has taken EVERYTHING from you and you feel as though it can take no more.... It swoops from behind and steals the reserve of the little bit of something you had left.

I know y'all are probably thinking... "Well shoot, if you hate it so much why not just quit?!"

Well guys.. it's not that easy. Finding the ability within yourself to be completely comfortable with walking away from something you worked so hard at achieving... is immensely difficult. I worked SOOO hard to get to law school. I have never quit anything before... and I don't know if I have the strength to do that right now.

So until then, I will continue to rant about how much law school irks me, and I will hope that it will eventually get better. *kanye shrug*

However... there are two good things... is one good thing about law school. That is the people. My law school has such a relaxed atmosphere. People don't work hard to cut you down, even though we are all competing for the same grade. People instead work to uplift you.

Exhibit A:


One of my fellow classmates posted this on the wall of one of the study rooms. Law school is tough and depressing... but things like this make it that much more bearable. 

Exhibit B:

One of my fellow 1Ls gave me some wonderful advice that I am going to share with you guys... I told him that I was having a hard time adjusting and how I was not sure if this law school thing was for me. So here is what he told me:

"Just because you worked hard to get in the door... doesn't mean you have to stay in the room."

And I think with that... I'll end this post until later!

  1. Great post...It can be rough, but you are absolutely right, the people 100% make it. The Take What You Need thing is so cute! I haven't seen that. Hang in there...1L will be done soon! ;]
