The date is October 18, 2011. I've been having dreams and anxieties about this day. I first registered a month and a half prior to this day. It felt like it took forever to get here, and as the days got closer, it felt like it was farther away. The time finally was upon me, and as I drove to my first day of classes, I was eager on how the experience was gonna be like. How was the teachers gonna be like, and what about the students that I would be privileged to be learning aside with? As I walked through the doors, I was greeted by my counselor, And I was given my Books and my schedule that I would be following.
So The first day of school we had orientation, and we got to meet the administrators of the school. They gave a speech about the history of the school and the staff, and they also gave a motivational speech about our road to a better tomorrow. After the Orientation we got to meet our first instructor. My first class was Contracts & Property Law, and right from the get-go we had to define what the words right and wrong is to us. We each had to define it, and we had a class debate about our definition of right and wrong, and how it relates to law. That discussion went on for a good half an hour. By the way that the other newbie students were talking, I felt like if they took the class before. A couple of them did, two of them came from another school, (I wont mention any names) and felt like they wasted that whole year on nothing, so after that year at that school, they transferred over to this current school. Another interesting fact is that, I felt like I was the only male in the whole building. I know for sure that every new student that appeared that day, I was the only male in the crowd.
So Just as I expected, from the very first day, we had homework for the Contracts class, two weeks worth of homework. During Class time we went over Law & Ethics, and a brief summary on how the law was created, and about the Common Law. By the time we got over that brief introduction into contracts, the time was now over and it was time to go home. I was very eager to learn more about contracts, that when I got home I started reading into the chapter. On that first day I got through the first chapter, but was unable to do any of the homework because it was around three in the morning, and I just got knocked out. Ill be sure to post more entries about my experience in paralegal studies. Take Care everyone, and thank you for reading this.
