congratulations! Do you know grades, or just passing stuff? How does that all work?
And what's the deal wiht Esq?
In traditional British etiquette/social precedence, it indicated that the person "Esquire" is a gentleman. I think. And any commissioned officer in the army (as opposed to the enlisted soldiers and NCOs) was also a gentleman.
I quite like the idea of women being esquires (holding the knight's sword, and polishing the saddle, if you will...not sure if that's a good metaphor for corporate law or not!)
CONGRATULATIONS! I know how relieved you must feel (not that I ever doubted you would pass). I never really doubted it when I was waiting for my results, but I was surprised at how much better I felt when it was actually confirmed that I passed. It weighs on you without you even realizing it. Have an awesome day!
What an awesome week for you!!! I bet you feel so relieved--like you can *really* settle in now. Put down your briefcase, so to speak. :-) Very, very proud & happy for you! Congrats!
Congratulations!!! I remember being SO RELIEVED and also so very surprised at that relief (by November I'd fully supressed all memory of the bar and related stress/anxiety -- that all came back up once I knew I'd never have to worry about it again!). Enjoy your weekend!
"Lag liv," imperfectly translated, means "law life" in Swedish. I'm half Swedish and I was in law school back when I wrote my first post in 2006, so Lag Liv I became and Lag Liv I still am!
Now I'm a full-time attorney and all-the-time wife and mom of three. We live a busy life in Dallas, Texas. You can read more about me and my cast of characters in the About Me and My Blog page. Happy reading and if you'd like to contact me, my email is lagliv [at] gmail [dot] com.
Congratulations!
