In boxing, if you swing for
the fences on the very first round, you’d either knock your opponent out or be
knocked out. Crazy or Genius, pick the appropriate term for someone who could
pull a stunt like that.
The first round is usually the
feeling out round. Boxers usually study the moves of their opponent, mind their surroundings, and even get a feel on how their mind and body react.
This is usually the best move
because the first round because all the information he’ll get in the first
round will dictate his strategy for the succeeding rounds.
For our first week in Law
School, we have experienced reading more than 100 pages a night before the
class. We have seen how our professors conduct their graded recitations. And we
now have a little bit of idea about the challenges we’ll have to face, and the
obstacles will have to overcome in the pursuit to become a lawyer.
I cannot say that I’m
surprised since I knew what I was getting myself into, even before I entered
Law School. But it’s safe to say that I need some time to adjust because this
is an entirely different environment from what I am used to. The first week was
the perfect adjustment period, and it gave me a good idea how to tackle my
subjects, manage my time, and prepare for class.
Other than that, I’m very glad
that I made the decision to study at SBCA Law.
From the first week alone, I
can say that:
·
I feel comfortable
with the environment: Should be no surprise since I graduated Highschool
here.
·
We have
great professors: Enough Said. And our block is under the living legend in
Criminal Law 1
·
I have
great Blockmates: All my classmates are very friendly. On the first week,
our block as a whole has become closer. We have already conducted some study
sessions, tsismisan sessions, etc.

Community is fantastic: Everyone is looking to help each other out. Almost every
student, if not all, is approachable. Upperclassmen even extend their help to
give us tips and needed materials.
Well yeah, basing on the first
week alone, I am more than satisfied with my decision to take my talents to
SBCA School of Law.
The only thing that could
truly validate this is for me to pass all my subjects.
SHOUTOUT: Thanks to Mapua for all the sleepless nights, and the
sleepless month(s) during our review days while preparing for the Board Examination.
It has equipped me better to face the challenges of becoming a Lawyer. 4
sleepless years are about to come.
THAT IN ALL THINGS, GOD MAY BE GLORIFIED
