Like a Bird Without a Feather

To be honest law school is not that hard.  It certainly has its busy work and its reading, but it breaks down into rules. 

Lots and lots of rules.  Others in my class with lesser majors (as determined by my self-created hierarchy of undergraduate majors) do seem to think it is hard.  I don't think they are used to breaking big things down into small parts and applying them to a different bigger problem.  I'm glad chemistry and the sciences taught me this skill.  Furthermore, taking Constitutional Law and Judicial Politics as an undergrad gave me a head start.  Many of my classmates didn't realize that Civil Rights Act litigation all takes place in Federal courts.  Hell, they knew it was a federal statute, and didn't realize you litigate a federal statute in a federal court, not the state court in which you live.  I was surprised.  I would like to think I learned that in High School as well as Undergrad, but I don't know.

I have learned what I can sue people for as far as injuries not concerning contracts or criminal laws go.  I have learned how to make and sue over a contract.  I'm learning the steps of suing some one, not for criminal offenses.  And I am learning how to write as a lawyer.  In the end, I should have more pages published (Mostly by West Co. Publishing) than many prolific authors.  Maybe I should claim to be a writer, not an attorney?

I made Dean's List.  I'm on track to make Law Review.  I'm excited about those things.
