The last class of law school

I just had the last class of my law school life and I didn't realise it. It only hit me just. It's damn sad because the last class ended with a whimper and plenty of really hard to understand accents. 4 freaking years and those people who meant something to me weren't around. I guess the next time I would see them would be at the exams and I don't think we will be in a particularly good mood. We'd probably be hiding behind our stacks of mugger notes, concentrating very hard on not failing our exams. This stinks! It really does cause at least when we finished our O and A levels, we had those group outings and there were whoops of joy or among the more dramatic people, tears.

We won't have that this time round. We all end on different days and we apparently have grown older, wiser, more dignified with lots more poise. No more public expression of emotions. We are officially entering the working world. Sure sure we have PLC, where I hope we can slack a bit but I feel as if that final feeling of havng graduated is slowly being robbed from us. There probably won't be a common defining moment for all of us where we say: yay we got over law school. We can look forward to when we are called to the bar, but I gather we will spend the time after that celebrating with our families who have put up with our legal arguments and supported us through the long long 23, 25 years of our lives.

There will be no opportunity to say goodbye. There will only be a slow process where we gradually stop seeing each other. Bah.... I'm thinking so much.

So, to all of you who meant something to me, really thank you for the laughter, even if it was over really corny jokes. Just a little heartfelt something from me to all of you. Enjoy the remaining mugging periods, enjoy grad trip and enjoy life. Oh one more! how could i forget?! Enjoy mahjong.

Hugs.
