SO. LAW SCHOOL FUCKED ME. BIG TIME. But fixed it. But STILL. I get a whinge.
I got a lovely email tonight from student admin telling me my amended mark for one of my subjects, Dispute Resolution. It was 55 marks higher than what they told me I got last year.
Which is good because that's an extra 55 marks but also shit because HOW THE HELL DID THEY MISS THAT THE FIRST TIME ROUND?!?!?!?!?!? No really. And the fact that it took them so long to get round to it. I spoke to a course advisor who told me to email the subject coordinator who was on leave and who said after he got back from leave that I would need to email my stream teacher who was also on leave. And so after a month of all being fobbed off again and again I FINALLY get a response.
And it was a terrible month because the mark that I thought I got was a fail and not just "oh, missed it by that much" fail but EPIC fail. I've read my torts cases, I could sue for nervous shock or depression. Although a friend did point out that the downside of suing the law school would be they would probably have a definite advantage when it comes to procuring the best legal counsel.

So right now I feel totally overjoyed but murderous at the same time. It alternates. This is what bipolar must be like.
