来到我本科学校时就抱着以后要在境外读个好学校的LLM(因为本科学校很没有竞争力,不读JD因为经济压力太大),所以整个大学都是work hard play hard模式...大三上交流结束回来的那个寒假决定LLM首选美国,那个时候翻遍了寄托的帖子,给自己定了一个初步申请list跟时间表,决定DIY。TOEFL成绩在6月份考出来,同时要到所有的推荐信,然后暑假开始准备司考,8月份左右所有成绩都出来就把成绩单寄送给LSAC。中间出了个事故,不得不暂停申请进度,一直到11月底才正式开始写ps,加上大三下还有很多专业必修课选修课(出去交换的痛...),还在参加Moot,同时还在实习(自己很喜欢那份实习,也是我ps体现consistency的点之一),就这样每天熬夜熬下来了(要不是有一个早点见到一年多没见的在北美上学的男票的愿望,其实也挺难坚持下来?哈哈)
You will almost certainly face deep adversity. There’s loss of opportunity. There’s loss of dignity.There’s loss of love. And sometimes there’s loss of life itself. The question is not if some of these things will happen to you. They will. The easy days ahead of you will be easy. It is the hard days — the times that challenge you to your very core — that will determine who you are. You will be defined not just by what you achieve, but by how you survive. (来自我女神之一)
