So yeah! I
have started my uni life few days ago and I am actually taking Bachelor of Laws
in Taylor’s Lakeside University. Well, I am having my orientation week now and
basically what I did every day is just attending talks and workshops about
Taylor’s Law School and society and stuff.
People
around me has been asking me the reason why I’m doing law, almost everyone of
them asked me this question including my personal tutor, my dean and even some
of my friends. I found it quite hard for me to answer this question at first. That’s
because I actually didn't really think about this question before everything
started. I wanted to tell them that’s because I’m interested in law, but it
sounds like a weak excuse and it is not persuasive at all. So, I have been thinking
for days and finally, I sort of get to interpret what my mind thinks (sorry I’m
actually weak in interpreting my own thoughts to words).
The reason
why I am taking law is I had always wanted to learn to speak in an even more
proper way, not just only talking crap. I wanted to bombard people with my points,
influence people with my thoughts or ideas. I believe that taking law, I’ll be able
to equip with knowledge and even giving others who require legal advice. Most
of all, I love talking, or presenting. I actually don’t mind memorizing because
what I think about law is there is always a reason behind every existence of
laws/rules, so if everything is explainable, if everything makes sense, why not
putting them into my brain and make good use of them when situations occurred?
Also, part
of the reason why I choose law is I am actually quite driven to the motive of money
income. I believe I am a very realistic person, without money, you can hardly
do anything. So yeah! Lawyer is a guaranteed job with bright future, so why
not?
Basically,
that’s my reason of taking law. People around me did ask me will I be
regretting after making such decision. Well, I guess, I can’t answer you now,
but I’ll make sure that my decision is worth to try. Wish me good luck in my
degree life! J
