		<description><![CDATA[If you&#8217;ve read any of my posts while I was prepping for the NY bar exam (see below), you know that I was having a crazy time studying and working full time. I had tons of emotions flowing through me and nothing let up &#8211; not work, BarBri (my prep course), or the demands of my personal relationships. I straight up said that I thought I was going to fail the exam and face a repeat in February. Well I&#8217;m happy to report that I did indeed pass the bar exam ...]]></description>

Alright yall, there are just 9 days (216 hours) until the New York State Bar Exam. I&#8217;m sick inside. I have stuff I want to write here but can&#8217;t commit the brain power. So I&#8217;ll get back with you after the exam. In the meantime, I want to share this post I read earlier from a fellow bar-taker&#8217;s blog, Thanks, But No Thanks, that manages to sum up many of my thoughts right now. An excerpt:
Please Stop Telling Me I&#8217;m Going to Pass the Bar: When I say to you, &#8220;I ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My momma keeps asking me for money and I&#8217;m pissed. For the past several months, my mother has called me up and asked me to send her some money for various things ranging from minutes for her pre-paid cell phone to cash for cigarettes. It&#8217;s gotten to the point where I see her name pop up on my phone and I sigh loudly, my shoulders slump, and I get upset. &#8220;What you want now?&#8221; That&#8217;s my standard greeting for my mother these days. This is stress that I really don&#8217;t ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m going to be bitching in this post. You&#8217;ve been forewarned.
34 days (839 hours or 5,0367 minutes) until the July Bar Exam. This is the worst.
It&#8217;s not like it cannot be done. Obviously it can be done or else there wouldn&#8217;t be a grillion lawyers walking around out there. It&#8217;s not even about whether I am personally capable of doing it because I am. Besides, the bar isn&#8217;t about how smart you are or how good of a lawyer you&#8217;ll be, it&#8217;s about how much you can memorize. Therein lies the ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So where are we now? There are 46 days (that&#8217;s 11o4 hours or 66269 minutes) and a number of seconds until I sit for the NYS Bar Exam. Three weeks into Barbri, several subjects down (Torts, Agency/Partnership, NY Practice, Constitutional Law) and currently reviewing Contracts/Sales. It hasn&#8217;t gotten any easier and I expected that to be the case regarding the material. The closer to exam day we get, the more material we&#8217;re going to have to hold in our heads at once. Working on the essays and the NY portion ...]]></description>

Until then, I will spend every day studying. This is normally a difficult and stressful time for anyone preparing for the bar but I feel like I’m running the race with gorilla on my back. Whereas it’s suggested that those studying for the bar spend 5-8 hours each day (not including the 4hours of lecture 5 days/week) practicing test questions, revising notes and soaking in the material, I am at ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[April is Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month. There&#8217;s a month for everything under the sun, it seems but this one is particularly important, I think, because so many people are affected by sexual assault.  According to the Rape, Abuse, and Incest National Network [RAINN], sexual assault includes, but is not limited to, unwanted sexual touching, rape, incest, sexual exploitation and sexual harassment. The statistics are bananas:

1 out of every 6 American women has been the victim of  an attempted or completed rape in her lifetime.
Every 2 minutes, someone ...]]></description>

There are limits, of course. When given a choice on nearly everything, I don&#8217;t care who does it if it&#8217;s done well. I don&#8217;t go to Starbucks and wait for the Black barista to make my latte over anyone else who is equally qualified at foaming milk and stuff. I do like to have Black doctors, though. Maybe because I haven&#8217;t been exposed ...]]></description>

I started a new job on Monday so I&#8217;ve been getting acclimated there, as well as getting back into a 9-5 schedule. Do you know that I haven&#8217;t had to be at a 9-5/5 days a week job since last summer? Even that was an internship! My law classes didn&#8217;t even have that type of schedule. In Tokyo, we admittedly did more partying than studying or spending time in class so ...]]></description>

Finally, step one to ending the Summer of Suck is complete &#8211; moving away from home. What was only supposed to be a temporary stop at my aunt&#8217;s crib turned into an entire summer of dealing with my crazy family. Patience is a virtue but I&#8217;ve never been the virtuous type so, ya know, I was bugging there. On to the next chapter&#8230;
