My fortune the week after taking the bar exam

On Monday, I received news (bright and early, i.e. 5am HST) that I passed the Illinois bar exam!!! The 8 week-long 12 hour days of studying. The 11 days of not leaving my house. The countless tears. The emotional breakdowns. It was all worth it.

I have what I need to get where I need to be — I am more than capable. I’d doubted myself too much in the past. Realizing that all took time. Just like my journey will. But I am excited. And I {think} am ready. But for now, weekend fun+relaxation here I come 🙂 Happy Friday!
