I think, at the moment at least, my age and background are working in my favor, because I'm not stressed yet, and don't have the deer-in-the-headlights look some of my fellow 1Ls have. I'm tired, but that's as much for reasons unrelated to school as anything else.
Just wanted to record the above, so I can look back on it in a couple of months and grimace.  |
Good luck! It's very easy to get pulled into everyone else's stress, so make sure you keep your outside friends and outside life. Your non-law school friends and family will probably not understand what you're going through, but they will be a much needed break!! And make sure you take time for yourself and do fun stuff. My class was a bunch of partiers, which shocked me, but were very bright and worked hard too. Get a study group going early too. And, I found that watching "Legally Blonde" always helped me feel better if I was feeling down.
