Not sure what it was, but 2L year brings out whatever crazy you might have lurking. Anxiety that you’ve pushed down for years? Yep. Eating disorder that takes over because it’s the only thing in life you can control? You betcha. Friends who all apply for the same job and then become super competitive out of nowhere? Yep, that too. But finding out about that in my 1L year from an upperclassmen definitely helped when it came time.
I also second the notion that if you can go to a school in the state where you want to practice and you have scholarships, definitely choose that over the debt and the T14.
As an Idahoan… I have to wonder… is “a dishwasher in Idaho’s smallest Chinese food restaurant” a common phrase? Or is it just a random-but-hillarious reference?
The two things I miss most about law school: Free food and wearing running tights with sweaters every day. Affording both food and professional clothes on my prosecutor’s pay = the biggest hardship of Postgrad life.
The one thing I don’t miss : being surrounded by assholes.

The problem with that is that we were all expecting it. Will likes to throw little bombs of unexpected horror instead. That’s why we all keep coming back.
