praying to no end
This has got to be the most stressful and irritating of all days in my entire law school life. The day of pupillage applications.Right from the start, at an ungodly hour of 8am, you see streams of law students smartly dressed in white and black with a snifty blazer hung around their arms, walking around the raffles/shenton way area, delivering hordes of envelopes to the various law firms. After which the more stressful part awaits - the phone calls. One can see groups of law students sitting together, outwardly appearing calm and cool but inwardly suffering in extreme anxiety, hands tightly clutching that precious little thing called the cellphone, hoping against hope that some kind law firm would call them up for that one minute of fame of an interview. Sigh. The envy that eats into one when others seem to have interviews after interviews and offers after offers will kill you to no end. It's literally a crazy dog-eat-dog world out there, in the flesh. Everybody's applying to the same few firms, and with such few spots, it's inevitable that some claws will be snapped at the lucky (better?) few. Sigh. Oh well. I just pray fervently that the firm I want offers me. :( Then this nightmare will be over.
Pray for me. Sigh.
