Marching On

Clever title, right? It's March. And my second semester of law school continues.

Not much to report over the last few weeks. For the most part, I'm enjoying much substantive law classes LESS this semester. But interestingly enough, I'm more "on the ball" with regards to the workload.

I did, however, truly enjoy my most recent law school experience, participating in oral advocacy. I've always loved speaking in public. Perhaps it's because I've been told I'm good at it, or because I like to hear myself talk without being interrupted for 5-7 minutes. Either way, presenting my oral argument in Legal Skills was an activity I hope to be able to do more often. I didn't come to law school to sit in a stuffy room for hours on end, and so far, that's mostly what my time at Cal Western has been about.

It's bothered me to the point that even though I passed, I've began to give serious consideration to dropping out - or at least taking some time off and re-evaluating the situation. But I've decided to stick it out, at least for this semester, and wrestle with the issue sometime over the Summer.
