I figured out why I have cried every day for the past week. It finally hit me tonight. It is two-fold: listening to sad music I.e., Adele or Queen or whatever, and the thought that all I have hoped for for so long comes down to Friday at 4pm. It's almost like everything else has …

Even Looking at the Website Makes Me Nervous
I remember last April 5, when the results of the February bar exam came out, I looked at the website where they are posted to see if my friends had passed. Sometime during that week, or maybe that morning, the website has a banner they put up on the top corner that says that the …

We Are the Champions
I sit here today, listening to Queen, and crying, again. Third time this weekend. Why? Because the bar results come out on Friday. We 242 or so folks sit, quietly yet impatiently, awaiting the results to be posted for all the world to see. Oh how we all, I’m sure, wish they would silently send …
A Time to Live, A Time to Hope, A Time To Cry
Sometimes in life, it’s a time to live. Sometimes, it’s just a time to cry. Sometimes the raw emotion of the day just gets to a person, and that’s the latter. Sometimes it’s being alone for the day, when your mind finally has the opportunity to calm down from the craziness of the day. Sometimes, …

A Christmas Gift, Most Appreciated
I will be honest. In my line of work, I don't get many thank you's. I mostly get complaints, which makes it hard to want to continue at times. It just seems like there is always someone who isn't happy with what we do, most of the time simply because a color is not to …

The Stress I Didn’t Need Today, Thanks
This afternoon, just before we left work, I got a bit of stress I didn’t need. Let’s just say I had to call Security. It was not a pleasantry, and I don’t want to relive it or to have it happen to me or someone else again at work – ever. It scared me to …
Burned for Asking
Sometimes, during my day, I have to deal with people who are difficult. This is just part of the job. It's part of any job really. One thing about the different cultures at various workplaces is that some are better at dealing with conflict than others are. Some are also better at taking criticism for …
Jobs and Me
Tonight we went to see Jobs, the new movie about Steve Jobs, founder of Apple Computers. It was amazing, and Ashton Kutcher was excellent. I was amazed at how much some of the qualities Jobs had I see in myself. It also gave me am insight to how people may view me and how that …
Observations from the First Real Saturday of Freedom
Today was my first real day of freedom in four years. I say that, since last Saturday, I was traveling, and two weeks prior I was traveling, and three weeks prior, well, let’s just say I was still in bar exam Hades. Time passes when you’re having fun, since the last four years have dragged …
