Hello everyone! It has been so long since I’ve posted on this account so it’s time I reintroduce myself … again! 😂

I recently graduated LAW SCHOOL! 🎉✨🎓

I’m currently studying for the Bar Exam which I will be taking in July 2022.

During law school I focused my studies in Business Law and Compliance/Risk Management.

I’m using the Barbri course for my Bar Studies and I hope you join me on this adventure! :) -pinnacle-studies 🌻

✨ I START LAW SCHOOL TOMORROW ✨

The day is almost here! 😱 All my life the desire to study law has always been there. Without even knowing what law even was my heart was always drawn to the subject.

I would always tell myself that one day I’ll be able to say I’m doing it and guess what? NOW IM REALLY DOING IT!

Happy Studying,

✨LAW SCHOOL TIP✨

A key to understanding a case is understanding the facts. My contracts professor advised us to create a timeline of each case in order to clearly see when an offer and the accepted is made ((if it even is made to begin with 😅)).

He constantly reminds us:

offer + acceptance = contract

If only it were that simple!

Do you have any study tips for understanding cases?? Let me know!

Happy Studying,

Hello! It’s been a while 😅 A lot of things have happened since I last posted so here’s a recap:

I graduated from university with a bachelors degree in Political Science and Spanish with a minor in Criminal Justice

I moved from Miami, Florida to Boston, Massachusetts

I START LAW SCHOOL IN A WEEK

As you can see I started my first assignment for my contracts class.

If you are starting school again I hope you have a smooth transition into your studies.

I’m back and with much love happy studying!

✨OPINION✨

I feel like there’s this bad stigma around law school or just schools in general that if you’re not stressed out all the time you must be doing something wrong.

That’s not true.

I think following a good routine that works for you and carving out time to take care of yourself is essential to making sure you don’t burn out quickly.

Yes times will get stressful as some readings are long or some material is difficult to understand but stress does not have to define your experience as a student.

If you are stressed, talk to someone. The worst thing I did while in undergrad was keep my feelings to myself. I felt alone in my stress which caused me to go down a spiral of anxiety. Being open about what cases me stress has help me become more self aware and more sure of who I am in the context of my academic endeavors.

If you ever need someone to talk to, my inbox is always open!

I hope this post finds you well 💕

Happy Studying,

✨A Dream Come True✨

CLASS WAS CANCELLED TODAY 🎉

Coincidentally both my professors cancelled their classes today which means I get to stay at home!

Although I don’t have to show up to school today I still have a ton of work to do. I feel like I’m falling a little behind in my Property class so today is the perfect day to review.

We were given our first graded assignment for Legal Research and Writing and honestly it’s got me sweating bullets but I’ll push through!

No clas for me but that only means it’s review time, let’s go!

Happy Studying,

The tree outside my window has changed colors and the trees around it are starting to change too! I can’t wait until fall is in full swing ☺️🍁

✨Law School and Motivation ✨

Tomorrow marks the start of week 6! Fall is starting to roll in and we are approaching the middle of the semester. Before I know it finals will be here! 😭

Law School is very demanding and sometimes I struggle with find the motivation to finish my readings or do simple tasks like clean my room or wash the dishes.

Because you are likely feel super exhausted a lot of the time it’s important to surround yourself with people that will lift you up when you need a little boost. Find people that energize you and help you see the bigger picture.

If you have friends in Law School please check up on them! Law Students have the tendency to get super absorbed into the high demands that we forget about ourselves.😔

But we’re alive! Fall is coming, we keep climbing!

Happy Studying,
