I love that story!

My old flatmate and good friend D. McG, aka Danielle just sent me an awesome e-mail this morning, While we were living together in Australia she would sometimes bring up that she has always wanted to be a lawyer, that it was interesting to her, etc. but she didn't score high enough marks to study law at college so she got a degree in social sciences (or something related) instead. Also she had a full scholarship waiting for her to get her masters in social sciences when she got back to Ireland, so the law thing, just basically never gonna happen, but it kept nagging at her. Anyways she went back to Ireland and did her masters and got her degree in August and has started working, law dream over completely, right? Not so..my girl came through and this morning I got this e-mail from her..

Hey missus...ur gona b so proud of me...remember that drunken meltdown in Brisbane about wanting to study law? Well im starting law school (at nite) this week! I cud never get wat u said to me out of my head....'if you're happy knowing that ull NEVER be a lawyer, then move on...if not, do something about it'!!

So mad props to DMcG today, you did it! So glad you took that step and now you know at least know you gave law a go!
