The reality of me entering into my sophomore year has finally set in, as this new semester promises lots of excitement and anticipation (for me, at least) ahead.
Safe to say, THE AQUINAS & Co. kicked off this new semester on a high note, credits to the numerous activities awaiting the UM Law School Fraternity just after the new semester opens its curtain. Talking about a complete and rapid shift from a stagnating off-season to a fast-pace, and of course hectic championship season, huh.
For starters, the wonderful people of the UM Law School welcomed the new first year's batch to its illustrious family. As per tradition, there is no better way of welcoming these new family members of ours other than the Orientation Week. =P
The UM Law School Orientation is unique in its very own way, whereby the end result is that the freshies are able to establish a familial bond between themselves and of course, with the rest of the faculty. This long standing tradition of this faculty in many ways has helped the new members of the law faculty in terms of adjusting themselves to life in law school - a demanding and hectic one, yet exciting and rewarding. Orientation Week propagates respect, humility, self-consciousness, the mental acumen, the ability to handle pressure, voicing thoughts and opinions and of course, self-worthiness. These qualities are just some of the values that a student need in order to survive law school, apart from the other qualities that one picks up on their own as he or she matures throughout law school. At the end of the day, the goal of the Orientation Week boils down to a significant one: To orientate, not disorientate.
In other words, everyone is considered as a worthy part of this wonderful family of the law faculty, ONCE they have took part in the Orientation week. Unfortunately, there are some haters out there who cannot seem to comprehend this idea of Orientation Week, what more to register this into disputably-functional head of theirs, labelling such event as a "platform for overzealous seniors to vent their seniority on freshies". The reality is, haters, if we would want to be so-called "overzealous", we might as well do it without the Orientation Week. THE AQUINAS would like to apologize if this ruins your orgasmic experience of dissing the Orientation Week, but you haters should experience this hallowed tradition in order to appreciate the underlying message of it (which is something that you haters have not done), before you can see yourself in a justifiable position of pursuing such an outburst. Well, these haters indeed do a great job in making the hoots on what is on the surface don't they? To put a little bit of cliche to it, look into the mirror and have a good look at yourself before you tell on others.
THE AQUINAS has spoken.
