Another year down


Wow, my second year of law school is done already. Well, that's not entirely true. I still have 3 tests, a paper, and a take-home final to complete...all in the next two weeks. BUT, provided I pass them all, that's it for my second year.

You know, I thought second year would be easier. I wouldn't have as much anxiety, I could do an extracurricular, take classes that I chose. I didn't really find that to be the case. I do really well with structure, but sometimes have trouble creating that structure myself. First year was more definite, my study group was in ALL of my classes, we all had the same profs, the school gave us a few days between each final to prepare for the next. This time around, I have all my tests in one week, my study group members are in some classes, but not all, and even for the classes we have that are the same, we have different professors.

I'm doing the typical end-of-semester lament at the moment. Why didn't I keep up with my outline as much as I should have? Why didn't I ask X, Y, Z, why didn't I take better notes? But, I imagine everyone is in a similar boat, and I can only do my best and hope it ends up ok.

Wish me luck!

Good luck. And wow, i'm sooo encouraged. Actually, I'm doing the usual self-protection rationale: "That's her. It won't happen to me!" Yeah right. We'll see how that goes. Anyway, hang in there, keep up the good word. And holy pink. I empty the house, drop the blinds, and lock the doors and windows before I pull this page up.
