peacetraveler22 | Remembering Samantha Smith

Hello dear readers! I know many of you voted for me to travel to the Rocky Mountains of Colorado, but unfortunately finances are tight and airfare there too expensive. So, in a week, I'll return to my beloved Maine and go on another road journey to New England. During the trip, I plan on meeting with Samantha Smith's mother in Boothbay Harbor. What questions do you want me to ask her?

I've had no time for the blog recently due to a hectic work and life schedule. :( However, next week I'll show you "good Russia," with stories about Kazan and Ples from the winter journey. In the meantime, please let me know what questions you have for Samantha's mom. I'm happy I can finally leave the office for a week, meet with her, and relax in the beautiful surroundings of cozy New England. Does the younger generation in Russia know about Samantha's legacy? How do they learn about her? Or, is she mostly known to those who grew up during the Soviet period? I think her mother will be interested in knowing these facts. :) Have a nice weekend!

All lawyers must pass this exam, it doesn't matter if you're doing transactional/contract work, or arguing in the court room. There is the famous example of our late President John F. Kennedy's son, JFK Jr. He failed the New York bar exam three times after he graduated law school, it was a big story in the media each time. Poor fellow! :) I don't like the U.S. system. I think it's better to train lawyers in specialized schooling, and then make them work for a few years in an apprenticeship model. Honestly, law school teaches you very little about the actual practice of law. You really can only learn by doing it, same as most professions. I was lucky, because I was already doing legal work (as a paralegal) when I decided to go to law school. Therefore, I knew that I was getting myself into, and the realities of the profession. :)

Thank you very much for your reply Shannon, I'm sorry to say, a bit distracted from the topic of our conversation here, so I think that it is better to defer discussion of the common elements of the legal sphere before future solar days)), because I had more questions on exam system you described, but unfortunately I have a problem with time, so I think this interesting for me is the dialogue came to an end, but I hope in the future to come back to it.
With great respect to you!
Rəhmət!
