Mid Terms Make You Closer

No one understands what another law student is going through than another law student. That is incredibly evident during exam time. Combine that with a first draft of your major paper due the same week and you have the perfect law school storm. That is exactly the week we have had here at Southwestern Law School. On Monday the first draft of our final papers were due and today we have a Contracts mid term. It was blatantly obvious that our social graces have left us by our behaviors at a Student Bar Association Luncheon. This crowd of first years just ran into the room, grabbed as much food as they could carry, and just started stuffing it into their mouths on the way out. The event was not so much attended but rather pillaged. Our contracts review classroom was filled with 1Ls with food all over their faces. It was rather funny, but it was also a big realization what law school had done with our lives. Let me put that another way -- it was evidence of how very intensely involved we had all become with our studies. We gave ourselves over to this out of the ordinary, demanding everything you have and then some, and when our hitting your bottom, to give even more, experience.

And yet we love it.

More after the Contracts mid term.
