Blah Blah Blah

yaz: I dont know what kind of mood I am in
yaz: Just a blah mood
Bruin7089: have to find something to do
Bruin7089: and not just something
yaz: No shit
yaz: This is day one and I want to go crazy
Bruin7089: for the past two months we've had a goal to accomplish and scheduled our days around that goal
Bruin7089: so now you have to find a new goal
yaz: Yeah it is almost an emotional let down

The MBEs Were Hard

For a lot of people. Myself included. Here's to hoping for a huge bump when it's scaled.

The Next Few Months Are Going To Be A BItch

The day before the bar exam I spoke with one of my aunts who wanted to wish me good luck but also said, "You better pass." A buddy of mine, after the first day was over, got, "How did you do?" and "Did you know all of the answers?" After the bar was over the first question my mom asked me was, "How are you?" second question "So how did you do?" third question "Did you know all of the questions?"

My Best To All This Week

I don't mean to be overly dramatic over some silly little test, I merely continue a tradition in hopes of inspiring those who may harbor doubts over the coming days. And no matter the results, having experienced this firsthand, I respect all who give it their best shot.

Good luck to all taking the bar exam this week.
He that shall live this day, and see old age,
Will yearly on the vigil feast his neighbours,
And say 'To-morrow is Saint Crispian.'
Then will he strip his sleeve and show his scars,
And say 'These wounds I had on Crispian's day.'
Old men forget; yet all shall be forgot,
But he'll remember, with advantages,
What feats he did that day
...
We few, we happy few, we band of brothers;
For he to-day that sheds his blood with me
Shall be my brother; be he ne'er so vile,
This day shall gentle his condition;
And gentlemen in England now-a-bed
Shall think themselves accurs'd they were not here,
And hold their manhoods cheap whiles any speaks
That fought with us upon Saint Crispin's day.
