Bar Review Chronicles: A Little Perspective

 OK, so I've been feeling completely swamped by my bar review course, and the sheer amount of material to learn, understand, and memorize... As was likely evidenced in my last update.  :)  So yesterday afternoon, I took a break from the notes I was reviewing and went with David for a walk down Nassau Street.  We ran into Helen Dorini while we were out in town -- Helen is David Kim's sister, a Princeton alumna, law school graduate, former DC lawyer, currently mother of two adorable little boys and a one-month-old baby girl.  When she asked how we were doing, I, as per usual, said something about how the bar review was a little overwhelming (side note: I really should stop defining myself by the bar exam, huh?).  She commiserated, but then said -- "You know, I thought that the bar exam was the hardest thing I ever had to do in my life.  You're so exhausted by the end of the summer.  But then I had a baby.  And really, taking care of a newborn?  That's the hardest thing you'll ever have to do!"

So okay.  Maybe studying for the bar isn't really all that bad.  :)



On a more serious note, we're continuing to pray for Sonia Lee '06.  For those of you not on the Manna alumni list -- Sonia was recently diagnosed with acute leukemia, and is in the hospital out in Korea.  The prayer email updates have been somewhat more encouraging the last day or two, but she's still very much in critical condition.  Please join us in praying for her!
