Nate, Henry, Mallory, Candace, Clark, and Daniela are law students sharing a house, which can get a little chaotic. They blog about their struggles sharing a home, keeping their GPAs up, and keeping their social lives in check.

2. OUR JOURNEY THROUGH LAW SCHOOL
Getting into law school is already hard enough. Getting
through law school as six best friends under the same roof?
That’s even tougher.
After meeting during undergrad classes, the six of us—Nate,
Henry, Mallory, Candace, Clark, and Daniela—all decided to
attend the same law school, seeking our degrees and trying
to save a little money. Like many students, though, we were a
little short on cash. To save money, we all moved into together
in a large house, sharing the rent and responsibilities.
Of course, that’s not always easy, even with the most careful,
concerned students. There are ups and downs to making it
through law school, so we six want to chronicle those trials.

3. KEEPING UP WITH THE LAW STUDENTS
GOING THROUGH LAW SCHOOL CAN BE A TOUGH THING, AND AT TIMES, IT CAN FEEL LIKE A BLUR. THAT’S
DEFINITELY HOW WE ALL FELT ABOUT OUR UNDERGRADUATE DEGREES, FOR SURE. NOW, WE’RE SAD TO THINK
ABOUT ALL THE GOOD TIMES AND THE HARD TIMES WE MIGHT HAVE FORGOTTEN BECAUSE WE DIDN’T WRITE IT
DOWN.
THAT’S WHY THE SIX OF US ARE WRITING THESE UPDATES ON OUR LIFE. SURE, PARTS OF LAW SCHOOL AND LIVING
TOGETHER MIGHT BE A LITTLE MUNDANE, BUT WE WANT A RECORD WE CAN LOOK BACK ON. EVEN BETTER, WE
HOPE THAT OTHER LAW STUDENTS CAN LEARN FROM OUR TRIUMPHS AND OUR MISTAKES.
ONCE WE DECIDED ON KEEPING TRACK OF OUR PROGRESS THROUGH LAW SCHOOL, WE DECIDED TO SHARE THIS
WEBSITE JUST LIKE WE SHARE ALL OUR OTHER BILLS. BETWEEN THE SIX OF US, WE CAN UPDATE OUR READERS
REGULARLY ON WHAT’S HAPPENING AT OUR HOUSE.

4. UNIQUE EXPERIENCES FOR UNIQUE
STUDENTS
SHARING THE SITE ALSO HELPS US SHARE ALL THE DIFFERENT EXPERIENCES WE EACH HAVE. FOR EXAMPLE, DANIELA
IS FOCUSING ON PERSONAL INJURY LAW, INSPIRED AFTER HER MOTHER WAS INJURED IN A CAR ACCIDENT AND THE
TROUBLES SHE HAD. SHE WANTS TO HELP PEOPLE LIKE HER FAMILY WHEN SHE GETS HER DEGREE.
HENRY, ON THE OTHER HAND, IS FOCUSING ON CRIMINAL DEFENSE LAW. HE GREW UP READING TRUE CRIME
STORIES, AND THEY SPARKED A LIFELONG INTEREST IN THE JUSTICE SYSTEM. EACH OF US HAS A DIFFERENT SET OF
INTERESTS AND FOCUSES, AND IT’S BECOME ONE OF OUR STRENGTHS.
WHILE WE MAY NOT GET TO STUDY TOGETHER ALL THE TIME, OUR STUDIES TAKE US IN DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS
THAT GIVE US MORE TO TALK ABOUT. SURE, WE MAY BE SHARING A LOT AND TALKING ABOUT SOME OF THE SAME
EXPERIENCES, BUT WE HAVE DIFFERENT INTERESTS TO EXPLORE HERE.

5. A DAY IN THE LIFE OF A LAW STUDENT
• IF YOU’RE CURIOUS ABOUT WHAT LAW STUDENTS DO IN THEIR SPARE TIME UNDER ONE ROOF WITH FIVE
OTHER PEOPLE, THIS MIGHT BE THE BLOG FOR YOU. WE MAY HAVE OUR STRUGGLES AND ISSUES, LIVING
WITH ONE ANOTHER, BUT WE ALSO KNOW WE’RE IN A UNIQUE PLACE THAT MANY LAW STUDENTS AND
OTHERS MAY BE INTERESTED IN.
• FOR THOSE INTERESTED IN HOW WE MANAGE TO ALL LIVE TOGETHER IN HARMONY, READ ON. IT’S NOT
ALWAYS PERFECT, BUT WE’RE ALWAYS FOCUSED ON OUR FRIENDS AND OUR STUDIES. READ ON TO LEARN
