I can’t believe that school has started. Remember what I said about the anxiety? Well, it’s shifted. It’s a whole new sort of anxiety – waiting to be called on during class. Professor Torts has this “brilliant” system of calling on people who share the same first letter of their last name. Thankfully, my letter has not yet been up. I’m sure that my days in that club are numbered, though.
So far, I do not dislike any of my professors. That’s a plus! Of course, that will likely change as they reveal their habits and idiosyncracies. The same goes for my classmates – we’re all too terrified to say much. But I’m sure that will change too!
And “they” weren’t lying. Whomever “they” are. There really is a lot of reading…and writing…and looking up words in Black’s. And I’m sure I’ve only seen the half of it.
Good luck to everyone starting next week!

good luck! it’s a little imposing at first, but a lot of it is getting used to the new kind of reading and studying that law school requires. it’ll take time to get the hang of it–but rest assured it’s taking EVERYONE you go to school with time to get used to it as well.
