No One Lied, It really is that hard...

This is the letter I wrote to my Family, and it seems to sum it up:

Dear Family,

A quick personal note. I know [my fiance] has reached out to most of you to let you know that I have begun Bar Study. This means, while I have my phone, I'm asking that you use it for emergencies only, and please understand my unwillingness to communicate until July 31st (Day after Bar).

Thus, if you call, I will think it is an emergency, and will get to you asap. However,please know that my classes are M-F 9am to 2pm and is usually on Silent. Then I study, with my phone on silent...SO, yeah, I'm unreliable, but as usual [my fiance] can be reached. He's been really great. You all have, and I appreciate all the support.

As to "how I'm holding up" : I'm in my second week now. In short, I feel like a first year law student with Finals everyday. It's really, really, hard. (Sadly the wedding is the last thing on my mind, but please tell everyone how much I appreciate everything!!! and let [my fiance] know if I've let anything slip.)

Sigh. Well, I need to get back to it. I love and miss you all so much.

Yours,

DCGG
