i'm a lawyer! pt. 2
today i found out that i also passed the NY bar exam. hooray! not like, "hooray, my dream come true, i can practice law in new york" - but rather, yay, all this stress and anxiety and waiting are now behind me. we had pizza for lunch (again) to celebrate, and we'll have cake this afternoon.
i was really glad that all of us newbie associates passed both exams. wouldn't it have been terribly awkward if some of us did and some of us didn't?
now i'm looking forward to seeing my actual scores, whenever they come in the mail. i hope i did well, for my ego's sake, but i also hope i didn't do too well, because that would mean i studied harder than i needed to. so really, it's a win-win situation at this point. (eh, forget all that, i'm just glad i passed.)
good luck to my california friends who find out on friday! you are all geniuses and i'm sure you did awesome.

i'm glad you are admitting that you "care" about what your score is, while also acknowledging how silly it is.
you are truly nerdcore.

Ilona, how long until you get sick of the long hours and decide that you no longer want to work, and get a man to provide for you?
