This is more like it…
I’m hoping against hope that I just might have turned a corner on this semester.
The day didn’t start off that well — I did end up oversleeping and missed 8:30am Moot Court practice — but things turned around by mid-afternoon. Â Our first NC Distinctions tests came back, and while I didn’t do as well as I should have I did “good enough” to avoid being subjected to a re-test tomorrow afternoon. I got some more work done on law:/dev/null, got my roadmap cobbled together for moot court, and did reasonably well at my first practice.1
There’s still a lot left to be done: homework is still due weekly for my other classes, the TYLA trial team coaches are pissed at my future absences,2 and I’ve got upcoming subjects in Distinctions that I’ve never taken before so the tests will be more challenging.
But coming off my worst semester of law school, progress is progress!
- A clutch performance, as our coach noted in the feedback afterward that she “was expecting you [me] to be my [her] biggest disappointment.” [↩]
- Even though I made clear to them when we came up with our original practice schedule that I wouldn’t be available M/W/F, and later acquiesced to temporary availability on those days when they altered the practice schedule to 7 days a week…

Progress is progress. Don’t knock it! I hope the rest of your week goes by smoothly. Good luck!
Thanks! Fingers crossed!
