  • Growing up sucks....

    Well sort of... I havent blogged in ages and I doubt anyone checks my page at all, but I just need to let out some thoughts that have been accumulating in my brain and taking up precious study-material brain space. Not to mention that this is a great way to procastinate from studying for finals!

    So Ive been in Ottawa for almost an entire school year now.... time really flies. I finally got the taste of university... how painful! haha I cant believe we voluntarily sign up and PAY to be tortured this way! I mean there are a LOT of things they dont tell you during open house... like how dumb you feel amongst people that are so smart you'd think this is their second degree... wait it IS their second degree! I mean I love the fact that I didnt have to do an undergraduate program before enrolling in law school, but now I sorta see why you would WANT to do that... I mean, when it comes to comprehension, it really shows. Or how the library will become your second home, and to get a spot in that coveted reading room, you will have to come early and stand in line waiting for the library to open. I kid you not... a line-up for the library! (Yes, I do realize how sad this sounds...). Or how your course load consists of 6 classes each semester for the first 2 years and you're somehow supposed to do extracurricular activities.

    I dont know if others feel this way, but I feel like Im always at the bottom of the food chain. I somehow pictured my future full of bright and exciting possibilities. The truth is, as a first year student, not only do I not have enough experience or credentials to do anything I actually love, I basically take whatever I can get. So it ends up Im doing something I dont really love, hoping it'll be an investment for the future. I am grateful for the opportunity, but I just feel like Im not doing what I love yet.... and I have to wait... and make "responsible" choices for my future. Its so frustrating....having to settle....sigh. Anyhow, I guess I shouldnt be complaining... things could be much worst.

    ok enough blabbing, friends is on.
