Graduating from Law School
Today, I am graduating from law school at the University of Ottawa. The past few years have led up to this, and by the end of the day I will be a Juris Doctor. I would be lying if I said the past three years went by "quickly," because frankly, it was a long journey. Prior to law school, I spent a year freelancing, being "funemployed" and studying for the LSAT. I got into the University of Ottawa's English Common Law program and jumped immediately at the opportunity.
Law school definitely went beyond my expectations and challenged me in every way. Every night, staying up till 6 a.m. writing a memo or factum, or not sleeping at all to put together a summary. Every exam, every lecture (I rarely skipped class, save for the flu last year and getting stuck in an ice storm in New Jersey after New York Fashion Week), every day at the clinic... it all led up to this.
