The aftermath
No.. I'm not crazy.. just because I think everyone but me needs to see a doctor, that doesn't make me crazy... does it? hmm.. i wondering now...hehe
Option number 2 eh, sounds fair enough... I just I'll still be thinking and praying about it, but as my friend was saying to me today, its not worth worrying about right now because its more important just to enjoy the time at uni I have left.
Went to the law careers fair on Friday for the 3rd time in my life. The format and layout were basically the same, the only new addition was the 'round table' discussions. Basically at these discussions a specialist lawyer would talk about their work experiences in their field and you would get to ask questions at the end. I went to the litigation and Intellectual Property ones which were great, the experts there were really informative and really approachable too. Had a casual chat with one lawyer who graduated from New South in 1994, having since worked at big law firms in the area of property and construction litigation both in Australia and overseas. She asked me what lecturers I had and it was surprising that she knew all of them! Shows how ancient the academic staff at UNSW must be!
I was really surprised how friendly and approachable the lawyer representatives were. I was even more surprised that the big law firm reps were much nicer than the medium law firm ones. Some of the reps came off as really dodgy, smelling of smoke, seemingly uninterested and lethargic.. hope that I don't turn out like one of them hehe
I asked all my questions at the fair, and they didn't tell me anything that I didn't suspect already. My conversation with the Minter Ellison rep hit me hard subconsciously, didn't realise how big of an effect it had on my ego and self-esteem at the time.
The problem with life is that people are competitive. And for those who choose not to be competitive, and who are struggling, they just get left behind. The struggle goes on and on, the vicious cycle repeating itself over and over. So people like me, who tried to be competitive in a competitive area, and who failed miserably, are left with not many options. People like me are left with disappointment, a sense of failure. What I can say I have is a choice, a choice to either let my disappointment drag me down, or the choice to learn from my mistakes and experiences in order to get motivated to seek another path in life. Its so important to not lose sight of the bigger picture, and in my case since I am a Christian, not to lose faith and sight of God's plan for my life.
Anyway, I am positive that the last paragraph I wrote totally did not make any sense. Hm.. I feel like 'waffles' for breakfast!
