law school graduation
They Actually Let Me Graduate
Graduation was rough. First of all, I was sick. Soar throat, runny nose, that sort of thing. Second of all, under my heavy robe, my hood, my cap, my wool suit, my dress shirt and tie, my undershirt, I was sweating like a pedophile. Third, I still had a paper due. In the middle of the semester, my prof said that I could turn it in whenever I wanted.
“You mean, I can turn it in after graduation?”
“Sure you can. I know you’re good for it.”
At the time it seemed like a blessing. During graduation, not so much. I know I would have easily got it done if he had set a due date. Can’t blame him, though. Only myself.
Words of Encouragement

It's done. Law school is done. Away from the bookstores and libraries, and off to the bars and clubs for me. Time to reconnect with old friends and maybe make some new ones…because law school is done.
Kinda. See, I just took my last test. (It went okay; I'm thinking B or B-). And I'm already starting to get my grades in. Got an A in Negotiations. It was originally a B, but I argued my way up to an A.
…kidding…that would have been cool, though…
So now I'm done…except for this one paper. It's a one-credit, un-graded paper, and it has no official due date, but it needs to be done and it needs to be good. (I really like the professor I'm writing it for and don't want to let him down).
The topic is there; the motivation isn't. Any words of encouragement?

Go for it Kid! From the excerpts I've read, you not only have the potential to become a good lawyer but also an exceptional writer. I love the stories in the excerpt about your dad and can't wait to read the rest of the book! I've done "battle" with your dad and his firm many times (and we are all still friends!)
