*pops the champagne bottle*

This week, I fin­ished all my classes at Law School (and what bet­ter way to fin­ish it than to be in my favourite law course to date — Health and Med­ical Law). Amidst all the cham­pagne bot­tle pop­ping, vale­dic­tory din­ners and gen­eral feel­ing of excite­ment and antic­i­pa­tion among the grad­u­at­ing class, I cel­e­brated pri­vately, tak­ing one of my best friends to a small restau­rant where we wined, dined and sam­pled unknown drinks right off the menu until our bel­lies exploded with both food and feel­ings of achieve­ment and content.

It’s been a long jour­ney, and I must admit going into this final year at Law School I was unsure how I felt. I love my uni­ver­sity, felt a lit­tle sad and appre­hen­sive at leav­ing it to the new kid­dies to run an insti­tu­tion which has been so good to me. But life moves on, and a new gen­er­a­tion comes through to inherit a rich legacy of edu­ca­tion, self-discovery and the oppor­tu­nity to form life long friend­ships. As for me? It is time that I move on.

As my final assess­ments and grad­u­a­tion in Decem­ber comes closer, I look towards it with excite­ment. Excite­ment for what future brings and what­ever comes my way. I have cre­ated the strongest friend­ships, grown as a per­son and my mind has been instilled with the knowl­edge that there is much out there in the world I can do; all I need to do is look and be a will­ing student.

Thank you for everything,

Kym Huynh
