Patience...

"Patience: A minor form of despair disguised as a virtue." ~ Ambrose Bierce

I completely agree with this quote...I'm not a very patient person. I think it's because I grew up in a society where everything is so instantaneous. People want instant gratifications. But I think being patient is more about the attitude than the actual waiting itself. I really admire those people who have this virtue because it seems like nothing in the would can tick them off. They also seem to be happier people. I think that is a quality I'm lacking because I'm not the most optimistic person out there. I should probably start reading some self-help books.

How long more do I have to wait. Each day that goes by adds to my worry...I don't know what I'm going to do if I sign into the system and it says "Rejected".

Waiting again...

I haven't been on here for so long because life just hasn't been exciting enough to write about. Or maybe because I have no time to even sleep in Hong Kong. It's actually quite funny looking back at my old posts. When I read that I was waiting for an offer for the law program in April of 2010, I was surprised that it has already been that long. Well, I did finally get accepted into the program but only for the full time program because they no longer offer their part-time program. So I declined the offer and started work instead. Two years later, here I am again, waiting for an offer for the same program from the same school. Hopefully, I will receive some good news from the school again. I am really determined to become a lawyer and I have worked so hard in the past 2 years to try to realize my dream. It would be devastating if I can't get into the program. I don't even want to imagine the possibility.


I guess the worse case scenario would be for me to stay in my current program and wait until graduation to go into PCLL. But I truly want to transfer to JD because I think the quality of teaching would be much higher.
