Okay, Molly, where are you planning to go, 'cause you just finished the bar? Other than your bar trip, and then what about what drew you to law school?

Molly OkamuraGUEST
So I'll be starting in the fall at Neumeyer Dillon, a firm in Newport Beach, so I'm also an Orange County local like you, MC.

Molly OkamuraGUEST
When I was an undergrad, I originally thought I wanted to do journalism, because I've always really enjoyed reading and writing and research.

Molly OkamuraGUEST
And I ended up taking a couple journalism-related classes, and I had an internship at a regional magazine in undergrad, and just didn't feel particularly challenged by the work.

Molly OkamuraGUEST
And I felt like, unfortunately, journalism is not necessarily a dying industry, but people don't really dig into, like, news articles and that kind of stuff as much as they used to.

MC SungailaHOST
Well, it's competitive, so you got selected, too, into the Ninth Circuit clinic, but how did you decide that was something you were interested in seeking out as an experience in law school, particularly that clinic? And then how did the clinic vary or the experience vary from what you thought it was gonna be when you first got into it? Think I'll start with Sydney on this one.
