I PASSED my first semester!  

Posted by: Jason, Kelly and Tanner

Words cannot express how I feel right now!! Not only did I pass but I did much better than I expected. First semester of law school and I have a C (legal research and writing), B- (Civil Procedure, A- (Contracts) and an A (Torts)!!

The school has you log into a website and watch all day as your grades slowly pop up. So of course I got my C first.....man ole man...I already knew it was a C but I was still hoping for a boost to a C+. I'm terrible at grammar....and I mean terrible. Something I plan to work on this semester. Plus the professor is no real help in making our papers better. As a matter of fact my second memo was worse than the first but that's ok...I'll take it.
So then my B- came in and I was actually really disappointed, I really thought I did my best in Civil Procedure. Then at A- popped up and I was jumping up and down and in tears. I mean I got an A- in Contracts. Now let me first say that prior students have mentioned that last semester this professor is the one that failed the most people. So I was really expecting a C...or should I say I was praying I had a C. Then that A popped up a few hours later, I could not contain myself. I had to call Jason I was just so excited. He was aware of the other grades and I think he was just as happy as I was.
I mean I have a B average my first year of law school. I'm just so proud of myself. It really makes me feel at ease about being here and working so hard. Being away from Jason and Tanner for that month or so studying, it all paid off.

So...now it's back to the books...time to forget about the grades and try just as hard or harder this semester!

Well, I currently have a teething baby and I'm sick. So no sleep for us this weekend!! Good thing Monday is a holiday, hopefully I can catch up on reading and sleeping!!

Thanks for all the support!!!

YEA! GOOD JOB! I was wondering how it all went and figured you would post about it sooner or later! I know you are relieved and now you are going into this semester with something you didn't have for the first one -- confidence! You know you can do it, and you know how much effort it takes! Keep up the hard work! I know you are going to do great!

Kel..... Oh my gosh, congrats on the grades. You are doing an amazing job and I am excited for you... I can't imagine how hard it is with Tanner and Jason to care for. But, you are doing it and as they say you can do anything when we make up our minds. I can't imagine how much work this must take... But, you go girl!!
