Let The Terror Of 1L Year Commence!

The more things change, the more things stay the same.

Welcome to law school, 1Ls!

It’s that time of year again when brand new wannabe lawyers get dropped into the hellscape that is law school. It can be an overwhelming experience, and the only good-ish news I have is that you are not alone in feeling that way. The IG account attorney.memes feels your pain too and has the perfect encapsulation of the experience.

Be sure to scroll through each of the pictures in the post, because that sinking feeling you have in the pit of your stomach? Yeah, that doesn’t really go away.
