The first full week of law school has come and gone and I have already faced my biggest fear.
I just had that feeling that I was going to be called on.
I was raising my hand for the case we were reviewing before hand, but of course the professor was not calling on anyone else expect the person that he picked to decipher the case.
So there I am, sitting in the back of the classroom, nodding my head in agreement with whatever was said and then raising my hand trying to help the other guy out.
Long and behold I get called on. Totally not understanding the vocabulary that the professor uses and mortified because I'm getting half of the questions wrong.
So glad that I was "saved by the bell" and class ended. I felt bad for dragging the class down with me, but I seriously was lost in the wording of his questions. I was trying my best and I absolutely read the case, understood the case but for could not get past a few points. I was jumping some high hurdles trying to answer those questions.
In the end, I spoke with the professor and he proceeded to give me a high five and some daps!
If I could get through it, anyone can.
I feel that I have already conquered something I never thought I would, although I was in forced to do so.
I wonder what this next week has in store for me next.
