1. It is important to
consistently work on your senior project, whether it is break or we are in
school. What did you do over the break with your senior project?
I met with my mentor 3
times over winter break. I helped her with some files and made nametags for her
Christmas party. I also went to LA with her to a mediation that took 15 hours!
It was honestly super boring but I did learn from it.
2. What was the most important thing you learned from what you did, and why? What was the source of what you learned?

I learned that being a
lawyer is really hard and sometimes boring work. As a lawyer you have to always
pay attention, have the right paperwork, give good advice, always seem awake and not let your guard down. Since a lawyer’s client is paying them, they have to
know what they’re doing, present themselves, and be ready for anything. During
the 15-hour mediation, my mentor had to do all of this and more, while I’m
sitting there trying not to fall asleep. To be a lawyer, I learned, you really
have to love it and love everything that comes with it.
3. Your third interview will be a 10 question interview related to possible answers for your EQ. Who do you plan to talk to and why?
I plan to interview my
mentor's paralegal, Luz. She is a highly qualified lawyer and does a lot of work
for my mentor. I think she give me a lot of good information on what she
does, how she became a successful lawyer, and what it takes to be a lawyer.
