20. Thanks everyone!

:hi: :party: :toast:

It's definitely a huge relief--that was my third time around (I guess third time's a charm!). It's an awesome feeling--I keep checking to make sure my name is actually on the list!

I want to get a job in criminal defense (I got a concentration in criminal litigation). Ideally, I would like to work for the Public Defender's Office, but those jobs are a little hard to come by, so we'll see.

I'm going to take a nice long nap now--I've barely slept in the last two days because I was so nervous. :)

21. Well, good for you. I'm sure it took a ton of work for you to get there, and you deserve

to celebrate and enjoy your accomplishment.

But, you DO know that from now on, whenever ANY DUer gets in trouble in Missouri, they'll be calling you.

At least I would.

Go enjoy, before you get to work. You deserve a celebration.

24. How many tries did it take you?

My little brother had to try twice to get his Massachusetts bar. Tough test.

[legally blonde]

30. I took it three times

I was really discouraged after the second time--I thought about not taking it again, even though I had already registered for the July exam. After a month of wallowing in self-pity, I finally realized that my poor attitude was getting me nowhere. So, I locked myself in my apartment (my friends began to think I was dead and being eaten by my cats) and did nothing but study for over a month. I'm so glad I didn't give up on myself!
