Everyone I know moved forward but I didn't. Time stopped for me at least. Before that fateful night, I have already planned my life. My schedule so to speak, I thought that I would graduate from UST Law by at least 2011 or 2012.
I would be 25 by that time and take the bar the following year and hopefully be a lawyer in 1 year. When I thought that I had everything figured out, life then threw a curveball at me. The back pain that I was experiencing which I endured and fought off for several months suddenly attacked with full force (The details of my injury will be posted in another blog). I stopped law school after that, but returning was always at the back of my mind, I never stopped dreaming of the day that I would be back to study law. The grind of studying for hours but nothing enters your mind, the excitement that it gives when you finally understand you have been reading, the sleepless nights, and the anxiety that it entails when you have not read enough. I was still hoping for it.
