the same zeal that I had worked at my studies with
Ever since I was a young kid, I had always wanted to be a lawyer. This had been mainly due to my aunt whom I adored and who was a layer. She was my favourite and I though the world of her. I loved her dresses, I loved her shoes, I loved her little dainty house, I even loved her job. She also loved me a lot and it was not uncommon to find me in her office on weekends playing around while she worked away. As I grew older, she would let me accompany her to court during holidays and encouraged me once she realised my passion . I worked hard at my studies and passed well. When I graduated, I got a small job in a la firm and from that day on I have never looked back. I worked at my job with the same zeal that I had worked at my studies with and in just a few years, I had really risen the ranks . I was trusted with delicate cases and I did not disappoint. I rarely took leave except for very important reasons. One of those important reasons was my honeymoon and maternity. I remember that it was during my maternity leave that I had received a most prestigious promotion. I was nearing the end= of my leave. My baby was by then about five months. I received a call from a partner in the firm and they told me to read my emails. I asked them what it was about but they insisted that I read it for myself. I was very anxious as I went to my computer. What could it be? In my anxiety, I momentarily Forgot hotmail account password. I tied my Belkin password to no avail. Eventually however, I read an email sent from the office by the senior partner informing me that I had been made a partner in the firm. My joy knew no bounds. I immediately put a call through to my aunt who by now was an old lady. I felt that she was the only one who would really understand what this really meant to me. She could only say, hard work does pay my child. It does pay!
