Just checking in...

I'm sitting here in the lounge at Mitchell studying for my second final exam (out of four). In a week I'll be done and have a summer to regroup and do some more practical learning, which is where my mind has been continually wandering the last couple of days. I'm very excited to be done with this year and start my summer clerkship.
But nothing can match the excitement taking place in the room next to mine. In there are a bunch of students who will be graduating from law school in the next couple of weeks. They're picking up and trying on their caps and gowns. I've seen many of the faces before, but this is the first time I think I've seen any of them this gleeful. Not just smiles in this room, but belly laughs and hand shakes. These are some happy people.
And that's just two years away for me. Two years and this set of final exams. And I gotta say, the caps we get look awesome!
