Great Success!!


So after months of waiting and three rejections, I finally did it--I actually made it into Law School! On Thursday afternoon, I opened the "big" envelope for Santa Clara Law. Pretty exciting i would have say. I it couldn't have come at a better time--Wednesday night was full of frustration and even a couple of hours looking at the UCLA career center for full time jobs. I breathed a huge sign of relief as the weight of not knowing what I am doing next year was lifted off my shoulders. Thank you for everyone who has wished me congratulations and especially my parents and two sisters who spread the word like wildfire throughout the family.



With graduation from UCLA fast approaching, I feel a sense of sadness at leaving UCLA--the traditions and prestige; the friends and memories of the past 4 years; the excitment of college and finally being "on my own". It truely did go by too fast. And although the law school doors have been opened, I can't seem to shake the past 4 years and the hope that I made the most of them. I hope that i did and i do feel that i tried to experience all i could--although i have to admit i wish i could go back and fix my GPA. I don't feel that it reflects my ability. I guess all i can do it enjoy the next 6 weeks or so, soaking in the sun and trying not to fail my classes.

Europe awaits.

Law School awaits. Still waiting for a decision from Golden Gate. They sure are taking their time.

You go, Dawg! Mom and I are so very proud of you...Leaving college is hard, but now you're on to even bigger and better adventures. Know that all of us have your back.

It was great having you home this weekend, Dave. Thanks so much for spending the day with Sean; it meant a lot to him, even if he never utters those words. You think college and law school are tough--try being 15 again!
