This waiting is KILLING me.
Waiting for bar exam results, that is. Now that I know my classmates' fate on the PA bar, it's killing me that I have to wait another 25 days for my TX results. I can't sleep at night for thinking about it. Tonight I finally got up and am now eating a bowl of cereal and doing a bit of surfing in hopes of tiring myself out enough so I can sleep. This is truly cruel of the TX bar examiners! Let me know already so I can get on with my life either way!

Thanks for listening.

1. Aww, hang in there DTBK!
You need to get some rest so you can celebrate when you get those results :) Just promise we at DU will be some of the first to be notified!

Now go to bed and get some sleep you smarty-pants lawyer :hug:

16. Yeah, well the good news for me today was that the Vikings did not lose
The bad news is that Mike Tice is still the head coach.

2. Bet you did the best you could
You could second-guess yourself to pieces, or you could choose to know you gave it your best.

Am wishing you the best results! And we're all here if you pass or have to retake it.

My personal feeling is that you made it, and your results will be great!

In my opinion, it takes guts to take the bar to begin with...you are awesome to take on moving along in your life to go there. I admire you! :toast:

13. But I don't drink!
And it's Ramadan, and I'm fasting! I'll just have to suck it up and get through it somehow.

7. I'm sorry
Would it help if I point out that at this point, worrying isn't going to help your score?

Of course, you already know that.

What would you do this week if you found out right now you had passed?

Do that.

Of course you're going to pass, so why let the waiting bother you.

CONGRATULATIONS - a wee bit early.

:party: :toast: :party: :toast: :party:

:hi:

20. I went to the University of Pittsburgh School of Law
We moved to the Dallas area because of my husband's job, and I took the Texas bar exam in July. How are you liking law school so far?

21. Loving it.
Before coming here I had lost my job due to severe lay offs. As hard as it is, just having a purpose again is a true blessing. Plus, the first year is over with, so everything should be a easier until bar prep.

22. Yes - 1L is the worst
It's all downhill from there! Glad you're enjoying it. I was considered crazy because I loved law school, but I really did!
