I don't know about law school, but when I finished my masters I thought 'So...that's it?' of course, it wasn't it for me because then I decided to engage in more torture

but yeah, I don't know what it is about those last days that can seem so anticlimactic

Yeah, that's where I'm at. I mean, I guess that if I were dead set on getting out there and practicing law, maybe it would feel more like the end of the line. For me, though, I'm just like "Is this where I want to stop academically?" I've toyed with taking some grad courses, maybe for personal amusement (?) and maybe to eventually get a masters in something like English, Poli Sci, or HIstory. I guess, if this makes sense, I feel like I didn't dazzle in law school? I feel like I wasn't able to take the available material out there, assimilate it, and then just sort of work through it and form my own opinion based on that. I did that in undergrad, both in history and English ( ... )

I really did love the Pets Mart story. And you're a professional at being sweet.:)

I think this is a lovely post and I'm glad that you learned much from being in law school, whether or not they were things you ended up liking. :) (Hope that makes sense.) Congrats!

Thanks and it makes perfect sense! I think everything you do has the potential to make you better, regardless of whether you like it. The trick is keeping an open enough mind to actually learn from it.
