Graduation. Bar Exam. Wedding. Like a coming of age novel, but better.
On Wednesday, May 28, 2008, I was sworn into the California Bar.
Even though my law school puts together a large group swearing-in ceremony for all of its graduates that pass the bar exam, I decided that I couldn’t wait for the group ceremony (which takes place next week). My dad was kind enough (and also […]
It’s one week later and I’m still floating high when thinking of the bar exam results. Yesterday, I got to answer a question that I had avoided for the past year: “What is your occupation?” It was thrilling to respond with “lawyer.” Granted, the circumstances were not ideal. I was sitting in a medical office, […]
I passed the February 2008 California Bar Examination.
I am still in shock. I was convinced, if you couldn’t tell from my earlier posts, that I would have to re-take the exam. That being said, I am elated with this news.
Earlier today, approximately an hour before the results were to be released online, Josh and I […]
Dear God,
This is Delinda. I know, you know me. There’s only a handful of Delindas out here in the world and I have a feeling that right now, I am the only Delinda with a broken nose and a sunburn. While I usually don’t take our conversations public, I want to make sure my request […]
Just when I felt life couldn’t get any worse.
I broke my nose.
Yup. You read correctly. I broke my nose.
The stress of the upcoming results has weighed on me so heavily this week. I felt a good workout would mellow me out a bit. Thus, Wednesday afternoon, Josh and I packed up our surfboards and headed […]
I decided to visit the California State Bar homepage today. This is the website I will visit on Friday to retrieve my results. It is also home to former bar exam questions, answers and other State Bar information.
Today, for the first time since I sat for the February bar exam, I was ready to look […]
What does 12 years of public school, 4 years of undergraduate work, 3 years of law school, and a one year master’s program get me?
NOTHING.
The amount of money, time, and energy I have put into my education is the biggest joke of my life. This Saturday will be exactly one year since I donned my graduate cap […]
With as much womens-lib that I preach, my family knows the truth. I love domestic stuff. That is, the good domestic stuff.
For my birthday, Josh and I ventured over to my parents house in the afternoon where I received a very cute birthday card from “Archie and Gizmo.”
Then, as I unwrapped my gift, I was excited […]
Thank you for the warm birthday wishes. The many phone calls, emails, text messages, and snail mail has made me feel very loved. Which, I must say, was much needed for this particular birthday. Not that I was depressed about the new age (a glorious “27″) I must embrace for the next 363 days, but […]
The aftermath of the Burma cyclone is heart breaking. How a government can deny its own citizens assistance in recovering from a natural disaster is incredible. Last night, I read an entry on Anderson Cooper’s blog and I found myself choked up. What a dire situation.
