I am now living in Lubbock and am a first year law student at Texas Tech School of Law. Today was my second day of the Fall semester. How did this happen? I still remember making this decision more than two years ago, but I can't believe the time has arrived. Moreso, I can't believe that I actually did it.
What did I do?
This realization has been hitting me more and more every single day. I walk out of class at 2 or 3 pm and I feel numb - almost as if I am dreaming. Not that I mean that this is a dream come true but more because it seems so surreal. I mean, I LIVE IN LUBBOCK.
What did I do?
I am all alone here and sometimes that makes me feel sad. Sometimes that makes me feel brave. But mostly, it makes me feel challenged. I am now charged with taking hold of a whole new life. I am faced with the challenge of succeeding in a very difficult career. The law school aspect of the career is hard enough without even considering passing the Texas bar exam and then living the life of a lawyer. All this is supposed to happen in three, maybe four, years.
What did I do?
