Got my first final for the semester in 10 days and will be done in 17 total --- can u tell I am counting it down like crazy!!
Law School though is a tricky place...I came here not knowing anything thinking I would meet a lot of people and make a lot of new friends, but in reality I think I have only 1 or 2 new friends that I actually trust and respect. Everyone else is so competitive and moral-less that it makes you not even want to speak to them. Because in law school we are all graded on a curve with each other, no one wants to help anyone because the better people in your class do, the more work you have to do to be better than them. It's like being back in the jungle, fighting for survival. Anyone that you know is remotely close to your intelligence level is an enemy that is out to eat you alive. Esp now that we already sort of have some grades in from the 1st semester, everyone knows who knows what. Egos are even LARGER than before (I didnt even know that was possible).
Lesson from this is: Play the Game or you lose. Sorry to reference the Hunger Games [EVERYONE should see or read that] but you either play along or you die. Or you play along but remember throughout the entire time who you are and DONT forget your morals. Eat the poison berries if you have to, if you need to make a point, but dont just join the blood-thirsty vulctures that are law students, or whatever else you are dealing with in life. Dont forget that you are your toughest critic and can you really look at yourself in the mirror if you are the reason someone else's life is a fuck up? if the answer to that is Yes, THEN STOP READING MY BLOG. YOU ARE A DOUCHE. Otherwise, reflect...and then continue to do you, cause in the end I know it will be worth it. There are other people like you that havent forgotten the difference between right and wrong...it's hard to find them but dont give up looking!!
Enough deep shit for today. Now go watch the movie or read the book! Learn something today. I'm out to study for finals...be back soon. This time I promise.
