Someone might remember (probably not) that I mentioned in the reading thread that I was reading for the Helsinki University Law School admission test. Well, today I got a letter.

I'm in! And on my first try too!

Man, it feels good. It certainly wasn't an easy ride. Good thing though that the admission test is said to be the hardest part. Now I just have to figure out if I want to start immediately and skip (at least) next spring because of army or if I want to begin only next fall (the first wouldn't be such a problem, but they've recently introduced a more continuous study model, so the courses (or whatever) follow each other more, and if I skip next spring I will somewhat drop from the wave (if you get my wonderful expression).

But that's a minor problem.

Congrats Uptimist!
Go and confuse them.

Congratulations. Hope the "minor problem" doesnt' give you too much trouble.

Oh keck, I just realised my chance for a pun.

I should have said "Conga Grads!" instead.

You'll be the second Adventure game playing Lawyer I know, then.

The other one died in 2004 at the age of 73.

I miss him.

Objection!

UPtimist · 07-22-2007, 01:10 AM

Thanks everybody! I'll be sure to start nit-picking on everything you say at least five times more now.

Also, I've solved my little problem happily. At least so it seems.

Also, a big *awwww* to Jazzie. (But yay for a great way to get sympathy points, if you don't mind me saying (in a completely kindly manner)

)

So how does that affect the "I think, therefore I am" clause?

"I think I'm a lawyer, therefore I am not"?
