One more hurdle

"Dear Ms. [Legally Fabulous],


We are pleased to advise that your application has been recommended for certification by the Committee on Character and Fitness."


....




YES! Not that I was super worried about it, but it's nice that it's finally out of the way! And at least if I can't be a lawyer it's because I couldn't pass the bar exam, not because I'm a degenerate... (actually now that I type that out I'm not sure that that's better...)


Speaking of the bar exam....
 results... dun dun dun.


I wasn't super nervous before the exam, and for the month after I pretty much blocked it out and didn't think about it other than when someone asked me how it went, but when I realized that Wednesday was September 1 and that meant I was one month away from results, I immediately got a giant knot in my stomach and wanted to BARF. 


4 weeks from today I will know whether or not I passed. 
BARF.
Thank God I have lots of fun stuff going on between now and then, so hopefully it will go by quickly. 
BARF.

  1. The absolute worst part was when I kept having to refresh for the results, I thought I was going to vomit. (ours are posted at 4pm sharp on the SC Bar website) EVERYONE looks. Annoying. Good luck and stay busy!!

  6. (1) Congrats on passing C&F. Believe it or not, I dated a guy who (after five tries...really) passed the bar exam but couldn't get licensed in IL because he couldn't get past character and fitness. For good reason. And it makes me smile. :)

    (2) I remember September being a rough month. My advice? On September 30, go out an drank it up and try not to think about it. Worked for me. :)
