Whenever I want to give up, I try to look for an anchor -- something to keep me going and grounded to the primary reason why I study law in the first place. Here's one of those. This is just two of the 24 brush-fine liner pens my love, Jumel, gave me two years ago. He knows I love color on my law school books and notes, and on my doodles. So, he gave me a set of these. These little things remind me of the bigger ones -- that I cannot let people like him, who are invested on me becoming successful someday, down. Lesson: If our family and loved ones believe that we can achieve our dreams and become equally committed to achieving it along the way, with more reason we have to think and act the same way. How's your midterm exam week going? As for me, well, I have the right to remain silent on this.

Chaos. I know I'll drive everyone, with OCD-like traits and love for cleanliness and perfection, CRAZY with this picture. But I am just brave enough to show how "dirty" my books and codals are. As an office worker and a law student, I just didn't have the luxury of time to make separate, clean, or even beautiful notes. I am always racing against time when it comes to studying. So, what better way to put everything in one place than have marginal notes on books and codals. Thank God for books with wide margins and plenty of white space. ❤️ #totetallylegal #lawschoolnotes #lawbooks #lawstudygram #lawstudentsofinstagram #lawstudentsph #workinglawstudent #lawschoolstruggles #lawschoolbloggers https://www.instagram.com/p/CGpuYm-pwqc/?igshid=m88hse01jov8

I am not sure whether, Twinkle (my doggo study buddy 🐶) is smiling at me or smirking because I am not even half way through my readings. Lol. Either way, she brings me joy whenever she does this... which is by the way every time I'd look away from my books and notes every after 45 minutes. 😂 #totetallylegal #lawschoolblog #lawschool #lawstudents #lawstudygram #lawstudentsofinstagram #lawschoolstruggles #doggie🐶 #dogsofinstagram #dogstudybuddy #doggo https://www.instagram.com/p/CFSKOSAJ04z/?igshid=kmh8ak6nlqw2

As I came to the last page of the book that I endeavored to read and make notes on, I am reminded once again how my boyfriend and prayer partner, Jumel, had supported me. Since 2016, he's been giving me the much needed support any law struggling working student would ever wish for in a boyfriend. This is one of the books he gifted me in our almost 5-year long relationship. I already have an Obligations and Contracts annotation by Atty. Hector De Leon, but he thought of giving me this just because I thin Atty. Tolentino's perspective would be worth considering as well. He seldom gives me flowers but he showers me with highlighters, papers, folders, art materials, and law books. Lol. #totetallylegal #bestboyfriendever #lawschool #lawschoolsupplies #lawstudentsofinstagram #lawstudents #lawstudentsph #lawschoolstruggles #lawschoolbloggers #lawschoolblog #lawschooljourney #roadtoatty https://www.instagram.com/p/CEwKtTMpORa/?igshid=jv48dvbipfxi

Before our classes for this semester starts, I thought I'd set up my bullet journal to save time. Mine is not as fancy as those you see on Youtube. I decided to just use one of my old sketch notebooks for this purpose. The advantage of doing so is I was able to save money from buying expensive books. The downside, however, is it's hard to decorate and make tabulated figures because it doesn't have dots or grids. Neither is my bullet journaling neatly and creatively done. You can see that my pen bled through the pages most of the time. Nor did I use expensive materials. I only had my Dong-A My Gel pens and Stabilo highlighters to work with -- the same things I use for my law school notes on a daily. But I'm proud of this set up because it fits my law school needs. And I am thankful for the rare opportunity to have spare times within the day to undertake creative endeavors like this. With all the stresses I suffered as a beaten up law student in the past 5 years, I'd boldly say that I deserve this small accomplishments and "me" time. #totetallylegal #lawschoolstruggles #lawstudygram #lawstudentsofinstagram #lawstudentsph #lawschoolgram #bulletjournal #bujoph #bujo #doodlesofinstagram #fauxcalligraphy #journaling #lawschoolbulletjournal #lowbudgetbulletjournal #lawschoolbloggers #lawschoolblog #lawstudentslife https://www.instagram.com/p/CEfviPJJykn/?igshid=7jtl30avkg0k

Despite having to write a lot during the quarantine (I am a writer and defense analyst by occupation), I also endeavored to do some advance readings for my upcoming review subjects this semester. I started with Obligations and Contracts for Civil Law Review II. I am not yet done, but I hope to get there before our classes start next month. In the meantime, as I beat boredom and tiredness (talking about ambivalence), I tried doodling some cover pages for my law school notes. I am an artistically-challenged person so please pardon my distorted looking faux calligraphy and leaf drawings. 😂 Materials used: Stabilo pastel highlighters, Piloy Hightech Point V 7 #totetallylegal #lawschool #lawschoolnotes #lawschoolstruggles #lawschoolbloggers #lawschoolmotivation #lawschooljournal #lawschoolgram #lawstudygram #lawstudents #lawstudentsph #lawstudentlife📚 #lawstudentsofinstagram #lawstudentsbelike #fauxcalligraphy #doodlesofinstagram #handwriting #handwritingpractice https://www.instagram.com/p/CD8aG2CJiaK/?igshid=zk7n5kbykddt

As I see some of my batchmates, who already got their emails from our University that they'll be graduating with their Juris Doctor degree, I can't help but wonder and question myself these: "What could have happened if I studied law full time?" "Would things had been different if I took a step back and didn't pursue other achievements while studying law?" Indeed, my journey in law school has been and is going to be hard, until I pass the bar and become a full-fledged lawyer. But the consolation on these is that no matter how extremely difficult it could be to achieve them, it will never be impossible. I always remind myself that I already got to this point, nearer the finish line than I could ever be almost 6 years ago. There's no turning back. Moving forward is the only option. To everyone here who feels like time has gotten ahead of them, just trust the Lord and His process. Just always remember, difficulty and impossibility are two different things. ⚖️🙅📚 #totetallylegal #lawschool #lawschoolstruggles #lawschoolbloggers #lawschoolblog #lawschoolblog #lawschoolmotivation #lawschoolgram #lawschoolproblems #lawstudentsofinstagram #lawstudentslife #lawstudentsph #lawstudentstruggles #lawstudy #lawstudygram https://www.instagram.com/p/CDyPS_nJw1Z/?igshid=k7xwxj8ml7c7

"Would things had been different if I took a step back and didn't pursue other achievements while studying law?" Then, I stared at this photo which is my current mobile phone wallpaper: Indeed, my journey in law school has been and is going to be hard, until I pass the bar and become a full-fledged lawyer.

Obligations and Contracts (being my waterloo subject) is hard in itself. Hence, re-reading my book on it, for my review subject, is nothing but a challenge. But what makes my study HARDER is running out of yellow pad and gambling my luck in writing my notes neatly on long bond paper. 😂 #totetallylegal #lawschoolstruggles #lawstudentsofinstagram #lawstudentslife #lawschoolbloggers #lawschoolblog #lawschoolnotes #lawschoollife📚 #lawstudentslife #lawstudentsph #handwriting #handwrittennotes #writing #handwritingpractice https://www.instagram.com/p/CDtKTsvJlrx/?igshid=15sxbz6k17cvy

Morning creative shesh before starting my morning grind. I decided to just sit back, relax, and do some bullet journaling before commencing my day's study and work. Surprisingly, it helped me reflect on my previous week and plan things ahead. In times like this, we need to get as many outlet as we could to battle loneliness and stagnation. I am so new with bullet journaling (I just didn't have the time before), but surprisingly, it makes a lot of difference. Also, I am so proud of myself for being able to see my sleep-wake routine and caffeine intake progress through my trackers. ❤️☕ #shamelessplugging #totetallylegal #lawschool #lawschoolstruggles #lawschoolbloggers #lawschoolhealth #lawschoolblog #lawstudentsofinstagram #lawschoollife📚 #lawstudents #lawstudentslife #lawstudentstruggles #lawstudentph #bulletjournal #bujo #bujoph #bujoplanner #journaling #writing https://www.instagram.com/p/CDpmyUMJeC-/?igshid=lmglc4g0o1wp

Sunday law school hustle. Getting ready for the opening of this semester is both challenging yet exciting. My classes will start tomorrow and the old millenial in me likes to panic.

Morning grind. ❤️ One of the quotes I came across on Pinterest is this: "You are not always motivated, so you have to be disciplined". I related to this instantly because there would be times when I couldn't just move even though I want to do A LOT. I daresay, in everything we do -- law school-related or something else -- we have to be consistent and disciplined enough to achieve it. Hence, I chose (and will be choosing in the days ahead) to become consistently productive even when I am unmotivated at a particular time. Whenever I feel lazy, I constantly remind myself that dreams weren't reached by the successful ones by sleeping all day. #totetallylegal #lawschool #lawschoolstruggles #lawschoolbloggers #lawschoolmotivation #lawstudentsofinstagram #lawschoolgram #lawstudygram #lawstudentslife #lawstudentsph #lawstudy #lawschoolblog #productivity #lawstudentproblems #lawstudentlife📚 https://www.instagram.com/p/CEFz2LqJ3wi/?igshid=7vx4yzlmw3ra

Double chin and afternoon grind.
