i am so proud of my pledge sister nally for her accomplishments in law school. she goes to university of laverne school of law and has been working extremely hard. from the projects to mothafuckin LAW SCHOOL! wow, that’s amazing. she was a finalist in her first oral argument in front of real judges. now, she competes for the best oralist against other students to receive honors and possibly receive an invitation to join a mock court travel team to compete against other law schools nation wide. i think that is absolutely amazing. we started school together (fall 01) and now she is really on her way towards great accomplishments which just makes me so proud. congratulations ASS!!!
i am so happy and proud of my sorority sister and friend but it also makes me look at my own life and wonder what could have been, if i had done things differently… if i had been more committed to my education. i’m doing ok now, but once upon a time i had the potential to go to law school. or be in grad school by now… What if i had pushed myself a little further? i know i shouldn’t have any regrets, and i don’t i just can’t help but beat myself up sometimes for not living up to my potential… and giving into temptations… and letting the weaker part of me get the best of me long ago. i know my parents would have been proud.
i’m not perfect, in fact i’m flawed in so many ways… but i’m working on it.
