Last year of law school definitely makes you philosophical. As I pen down this post sitting in my comfortable hostel room, I re-live the years spent in this college. Every memory is as fresh as new. But I am penning them down here.
People change and you realise that the person you hated the most all these years never cared about your hatred or the person you never talked to always wanted to talk to you. You forget the grudges and try to be with everyone. The huge groups once broken are reformed, with just different people in it. The 'lovers' become the most dreaded people around, leaving behind the people who hated you.
We learn to survive in the saddest of conditions in life, with the cleverest of people around. Law school does teach you how to live life in the cruel world outside.
Leaving that behind, you start feeling like 'know-it-all' by the end of four years and feel like not studying anymore. Juniors treat you like God and come for advise on every matter ever possible. It feels great to be of help but it leaves a lingering feeling inside that you are leaving college pretty soon. Friends plan trips to spend maximum quality time and people want to celebrate your birthdays around.
Midst all this happiness around, you feel the growing tension of getting yourself settled with some job and finding a decent paying 'naukri' after law school. The one lagging back paper brings chills down your spine at times and you feel that it will be so embarrassing to give it in your final year.
All said and done, last year of law school is definitely fun. Even though the tension of not having a decent job pricks you every now and then, it still feels like an achievement having spent five successful years in law school, and surviving it! :)
