I am an entrepreneur by day, a law student by night and a husband and a father in between and all in all other pockets of time that are available. Entrepreneurship is definitely not for everyone. However, before I decided to pursue law at the SUSS School of Law, I got into the business of [...]
On Monday the 22nd of May at 10pm, I was told to stop typing my answers into the answer scripts and submit my property law script. Just like that, another semester is over. I am almost there. The cumulation of a semester's hard work was two 3-hour exams, frantically typed into an application called Examplify. [...]
Or perhaps it SHOULD be the epitome of logic... Tonight was the last class for the first of two modules of family law. To be honest, I did not enjoy the module at the onset. I felt that it was too theoretical, too conceptual and extremely academic. I am a person who takes to modules [...]
I personally believe that I am who I am currently because of where I came from. I was extremely fortunate to have gone to institutions that have built up my character and that has served me very well in my life thus far. My formal education, disregarding my kindergarten years, started at St. Michael's School. [...]
For the first time in my journey as a law student, I've come across something in the statute that I genuinely believe should not exist. It is something that I feel strongly against and I believe that our statute should not have such a provision. In section 64 of the Women's Charter 1961 (Women's Charter), [...]

Many would ponder over the reasons why these individuals, who were intelligent enough to undergo and complete formal legal education, could not assess the inherent [...]
I am finally halfway through my legal education journey! It felt like yesterday that I was going through my introductory modules in law school. For those who are about to enter our beloved SUSS law school, we term the first two modules boot camp. One of the considerations when considering a legal education would be [...]
I truly wanted to be good at criminal law. I think my interest in criminal law was stoked in boot camp. Boot camp was the first two introductory modules that we would take as freshmen in the SUSS School of Law. It was four full Saturdays where we went through intense introductory and preparatory lessons. [...]
Those close to me have always known me to be someone who would stand up for the underdog. Since I was in school, there would sometimes be a particular kid who would get picked on. I would usually feel for that kid. Try to get him included in the general group (I came from an [...]
This semester has been a real struggle for me in terms of dealing with the modules in law school. I am finding criminal law extremely difficult. The modules gone by, constitutional law, the law of business organisations, torts, and contracts pale in comparison to the complexity of criminal law. I have two modules to clear [...]
