End of Law School Classes

Today was my last law school class! Yes, December 5th, 2008 I had my last law school class, Family Law. As of December 19th I will be a law school graduate (if I pass all my classes). As of April something I will be a licensed attorney (if I pass the bar, which I take in February). That's a few if's but I've made it this far so I think it will all work out (as my mother always say).

It's crazy to think in two weeks I will be done with school, no more going to school. It's what I've always done, go to school. I got my undergrad in three years, going to school year round. I will have my JD in two and half years, going to school year round. I guess I enjoy school, although taking finals in law school is really, really not enjoyable.

I guess it's time to grow up and move on from my going to school phase. It's a little scary though, actually it's really scary. Now I have to study for the bar exam, take the bar exam, pass the bar exam and get a real job. All while being a wife, mother, daughter, sister, aunt and whatever else. Life keeps you busy.

I want to thank anyone and everyone who has supported me at anytime in my life! Without you I wouldn't be where I am today, a law school graduate (almost). Especially to my mother who has always encouraged me to dream, taught me determination and perseverance, never let me quit and helped me accomplish a goal I set in the fourth grade, to become a lawyer. I love you Mom, Thank You! To Michael, who always puts me first, let me know fulfill my dream of becoming a lawyer, all the while supporting me and putting his dreams second and for always keeping me laughing. I love you, Thank You!

My Mom bought me this laptop briefcase before I started law school and I absolutely love it. I get so many complements on it and so many people ask me they can get it. Thanks Mom.
