I am three weeks away from finals. I'm starting to feel the pressure, but somehow I think it will all work out. I have gotten two midterms back already. I was below the curve in Property and above the curve in Torts. I can't complain too much. The people I have meet in school are very supportive, and I have an awesome study group. I was ( Read more... )

The semester is finishing up, and I am beginning to wonder where the hell it went. I am about 3 weeks away from my finals. I’m beginning to become nervous and hoping I will be able to retain everything I have learned throughout the semester. I have to say I have learned a lot of new terms and concepts over the past few months. I am proud of ( Read more... )

Jamie and Jay came into town for the weekend, and we all went to Epcot. It was nice to get away from school, and do something fun. However, this week I am somewhat regretting taking time off because I am trying to catch up with all the reading. But overall, it was worth taking time off. I can't believe next week is Halloween. I have no plans, ( Read more... )

I feel like all I do is eat, drink, and sleep law school. Every moment of my life I spend thinking about promissory estoppel, subject matter jurisdiction, and adverse possession. I even have dreams about failing out of law school, and I wake up in a cold sweat. I have three mid-terms within the next two weeks. Overall, I have to say it is ( Read more... )

I am so happy! I finally got my financial aid this weekend. FAMU is known for their financial aid problems, so I was beginning to get worried that I wouldn’t get any money. I will have enough money to relax for the rest of the semester. The fact that I don’t have to pay any rent or electricity has been helpful. If anything, the gas from my 30- ( Read more... )

I can honestly say I am officially overwhelmed with law school. I am only in my fourth week, and I feel like I am already behind. I honestly don't see how people do this with families and children. I feel like no matter how much I read or try to comprehend I am behind. I was amazed that someone in my class was like I don’t understand why people ( Read more... )

I am a week and a half into my first year of law school, and I am already physically and mentally drained. No matter how much I read and brief cases, I feel like I can't keep up. I hope this weekend I can to get a little ahead. However, I have to say I really love the campus. We are the first class to move into the building and the building is ( Read more... )

I have spent the last week of my life in boring orientation. I am so glad it's over but I have to say I did learn some valuable tips on inspiration and motivation. Supposedly we are the most diverse law school in the state, which definitely is a huge plus. I have meet so many people from different states, cultures, countries, and backgrounds. I ( Read more... )

Today was my last day at work. It was sad saying goodbye to everyone; however, it is for the best. They took me out to lunch and got me a cake. They even got the cake in orange and green (FAMU colors). My boss told me that if law school doesn't work to call him and they would help me find a job. I was relied, considering I felt like I was ( Read more... )

I will be moving to Orlando this Saturday. I can’t believe it’s already August. Fortunately, I have a week between moving to Orlando and my law school orientation. My dad has a two story house in Kissimmee, so I plan on “taking over” the second floor. However, I don’t see myself staying there for too long. It is 28 miles away from my school, ( Read more... )
