“You must choose between pain or drudgery.” – Douglas Coupland (from Girlfriend in a Coma, I think)
Caught an episode of Grey's Anatomy where one of the residents (the one who's a former model) had to break up with her boyfriend because he couldn’t accept that he would always be second to her job. She tells him regretfully but firmly, “Sorry, this is my life now.” Something I wish I could say to some of my own friends sometimes. Not all of them understand why I'm taking up law studies this late, with conditions being far from ideal. The answer is, because I choose to.

I can see why some people would wonder at why you've decided to push through with law school, particularly in this country, but hey, I know you wouldn't be doing it if you didn't want to. By that alone, I know you'll be a great lawyer (even if you didn't do so hot in your midterms...di bale, bawi sa finals) because it's what you want to be! You go girl.
hmm...who are these friends who you want to tell off? Hope di kami kasali dun? :) Itchokee about the midterms, Carrie. you have to be a bit of a masochist to want to be lawyer anyway, it's good practice. Hahaha! I'm kidding. I'm sure kayang kaya mo sa finals. Bilisan mo na so we can go watch movies again!
Heheh no Te, you're innocent of that charge ;P
Bilis, ikaw lang naman hinihintay kong bumalik eh! Nuod na tayo ng Brokeback!!
Yoko na ng Brokeback. It's so sad daw. Geisha? :) Or PRide and Prejudice na lang?
Not interested in seeing that Geisha movie, can't get over the Chinese accents talaga. Pride and Prejudice na lang yay!
