I have been waiting for this moment the entire summer. Suddenly, at the end of the semester, a large chunk of my social circle seemingly fell off the face of the planet. No happy hours, Sunday brunches, or the like, all because of the bar exam. Not only did the bar exam suck the life out of my friends, but it threatened to suck the life out of my life. The madness came to an end today, as they all finished the three-day test of legal knowledge, skills, and endurance. While I am beyond excited to have them all back to reality, I am more proud of their incredible accomplishment and their coming to the end of a powerful and exhausting journey. Tonight, we celebrated their achievement over Mexican martinis, mojitos, and margaritas. Without a hint of coincidence, we ran into no less than half a dozen other freshly-bar examined friends who were also out celebrating. Expect to see all of us out again in about three months, celebrating some very fantastic news!
