Was thinking about having a deep and insightful post for this entry, but honestly, I’m still recuperating and just chilling out from my last round of finals and readjusting back to work. Enjoying the new apartment, and life after night school. I just went to the school today to pick up my cap and gown, got borderline assaulted by the career center staff seeing what kind of prestigious sounding attorney position I had snagged post graduation.

As for me, I’m going to tough it out and reassess as appropriate, maybe after tha bar exam results come out, then a few months later, no matter what the circumstances may be. In the meantime, I’ve got a degree, and will see how far it’ll take me, either at my current agency or another. In the interim while I’m studying, I’ll be counting on Kina’s songs (as accompanied by her family) to keep me company.

At 3:22pm today I officially graduated, as in: the grade for my my last required class was posted online. The sick thing about law school is that even though in your mind you “get it” already as to how to study and take law school exams, the always lingering voice in the back of your head wonders if you did enough studying to pass muster and get through. One thing for sure, law school makes you respect the material, the curve, and of course your fellow classmates.

Looking back this semester was a bit of a mixed bag, in that it was kind of a throwaway officially, I only had to take one class to graduate, having enough credits from summer school over the past couple of years. On the other hand, one of my courses was a bar-related one, and the other 2 I had a personal interest in the subject matter. I could’ve cruised through this semester, but instead decided to take a full load and learn a few things. Wondering if it’ll be worth the extra tuition that I forked over though. ouch.

Finished my last final a few days ago.  It hasn’t sunk in just yet, but barring some suddenly stringent grading policy, I should be a Juris Doctor officially now.  Part of me hasn’t accepted it just yet, thinking that I’ll believe it when I get that diploma in my hand.  In the meantime, I’m just enjoying not having to read any thick red/green/blue/brown books a t least for the time being.
