Two years ago, I launched a project here called Project Law School. In that project, I plan to document my experience while studying law. Of course, it didn't materialize. Instead of proceeding to law, I went to teach at Stella Maris.
Now, since I have actually started my law studies in University of Mindanao, I'm relaunching the Project. I cannot assure, however, that blog posts will be more frequent, considering the tedious work in school and the equally stressful demands of law studies.
Almost all of my law professors warned us that Law is like a jealous mistress. It demands so much of your time, talent, and treasure. One week into law school, I know now whereof they speak. Indeed, it isn't easy. In one subject, as many as ten cases will be assigned for you to digest (make a brief). Every day is a recitation day. And sometimes, just when you thought a provision won't be discussed because it's insignificant, you are suddenly called by your teacher to recite in toto that insignificant article.
But why continue if we are not compelled to endure all those things?
I don't know about them, but for me, my only consolation is that I know this won't take long. As Ma'am G used to tell us, "Better suffer for four years than suffer for the rest of your life."
