Yup I have graduated from uni with an Law degree and although I wished I had got better results, I'm still glad I passed! The thing I was most shocked about getting our results this week, is that some of the really intelligient people who always get the top marks didn't do so well and a couple even failed to get a degree!! I really felt for those who didn't well because it's 3 years of hard work and then a piece of paper that says you have failed is quite heartbreaking. These last 3 years have flwe by quick but I know I have made great uni friends for life. It's just sad that everyone is going to part ways now and probably never see each other again! but then there is Facebook which everyone is likely to be on but it's the not the same thing as seeing someone again in reality.
Now I will have to do the LPC course in couple of months to become a solicitor! The thing is I still don't know what I wanna be and I should know by now but it's quite difficult. I have decided to continue the ladder to the law profession considering I have done the Law degree so might as well do it. But I like to be all kinds of things, I don't like to be restricted to doing just one thing in my life. I wanna own my own business, I wanted to be an investigator or even be in the secret service! I even wanted to do Architecture and I did apply for the course until I changed my mind to do Law 3 years ago!
Life was so much easier and less complicated when we were kids and we could fream of vibrant ideas of what we wanna be like being an policeman, a farmer, a fireman etc...life was so much inspiring then but growing up life kinda feels restricted and dare I say it boring!
I do really like Law, I find it quite interesting but there is hardly any creativity involved. And I love doing creative stuff - webdesigning, scrapbooking, drawing, other crafts etc. But I kind of don't mind doing Law since I do creative stuff as a side hobbie, so I guess it's still all good! I think I'm like this because I don't wanna disappoint my parents or immediate family. Although my parents are happy with what ever I want to do in life, I think that being an British Asian you think you might disappoint your parents doing something that they would think is not appropriate to do. I think maybe it's just my mentality that is strange!
But I know for sure it's going to be a difficult journey for me to be a lawyer because I didn't get the upper class degree I wanted and with my results they do say it is hard to get an training contract because this profession is so fierce and competitive. But I just have to work harder than before and get some work experience!
