I was thinking recently and lucky for me, the firsts of the past few months have been pretty darn amazing.
August 1st was my first day post-bar exam. I spent it with my mom in
Chicago shopping and viewing prospective apartments before heading back to NYC.
September 1st was spent with Timmy on the Big Island. We grabbed breakfast and then headed out for a roadtrip up the north coast, making stops at the beautiful Akaka Falls and the resort area near Kona, where we went to the beach and grabbed dinner and Starbucks. We ended the day with a sunset before heading to the airport.
October 1st was the day I received my bar exam results. Fortunately, I passed and it was a very happy day. Timmy bought me some presents and we went out for a celebratory meal, during which he was told he didn’t have to go into work so we got to spend the whole day together.
And today, November 1st I will be sworn in at my job. I won’t be divulging much about it on here for privacy and safety reasons but it’s pretty much a dream come true. Oh, and I {hopefully} fly out to Vegas to meet Tim, family and friends tonight!!
Here’s to hoping December 1st is just as amazing!
P.S. Yesterday was my dad and Tim’s birthdays – HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY MEN!
