A lawyer’s life

Stephanie was a remarkable student in her school years because she always got high grades. However, her classmates
always thought she was very disagreeable, and they did not like her attitude because she argued with them all the time.
In January 1990, she was still at primary school, and her favorite subjects were Math, English and Chemistry. She
graduated from primary school on September 1990, and she started high school on January 1995. Stephanie always had
a busy day during her school years because she also worked at a well-known restaurant. However, she managed to
graduate from high school. After that, she started her career as a lawyer at Richmond law school.

When Stephanie turned 21 years old, she graduated from college. After that, she started working as a full-time lawyer.
Her job consisted in defending people who committed crimes, and they paid for her services after each trial. Stephanie

a lawyer was stressful, she did not regret to be one.
