On finishing law school... and what's next

It's finally starting to sink in that I'm done with law school.

After nearly 4 years, I received my J.D. on Sunday as part of Fordham's 100th graduation class. Because we were a "special" class, commencement was held in the Metropolitan Opera next to the school, instead of the usual location at the MSG Theater. (I'll update this post later with pictures).

It was sort of a weird experience for me. I didn't know most of the graduating class - there were only a handful of us who stayed in the part-time program, so most of my friends from 1L already graduated last year. And unlike many of my fellow graduates, I am not going to immediately pursue a legal career. As such, I've decided not to take the bar exam this summer.

You may have noticed that posting was especially light here lately - I promise to change this. Part of the blame falls on finals and all the other things leading up to graduation; the rest is simply that most of my mental cycles have been spent on reflecting and putting things in perspective and figuring out what direction I want to head.

As for what's next, I hope you'll be hearing about that very soon.
