    At long last ....
    I received my first call back notice today. I have had 14 on-campus interviews, and was watching my classmates' phones ringing all last week while mine sat quiet and dark. I was depressed, and I was mad at myself for being depressed. These types of large firm jobs were NOT what I came to law school to do! WHY was I allowing myself to feel so poorly just because it looks like it is not what I AM going to do? Seems like the world is in sync, right?

    But there is still the element of rejection. We were told in a workshop that it's all about "fit" and "personality" -- and then when the phone doesn't ring, I'm of course left thinking I don't "fit" and I have no "personality."

    I had a good bit of chaos on the social justice project front today - i believe it will sort itself out. I did my best to be diplomatic with my client, and try to convince her that her previous assessment was incorrect, and that I had a better idea of what she needed than she did. ha.
