Hanging By AThread

>>>Hangin' by a thread<<<

That's how I felt after yesterday's Bar. I thought it would be relieving because it will be the end of our agony as barristers. The end is last in execution but first in intention. But it was not as good as expected...

Remedial

Remedial Law, bearing the greatest percentage in the Bar (20%), was another arduous exam for all of us. The length of the exam was shocking as ever. One subquestion with 2% needs 3 answers. How could that be? The questions are reasonable. But the length of the exam isn't.


LEPE

I expected the morning subject would knock me out of contention. But there comes the much lengthy Legal Ethics and Practical Exercises (LEPE) in the afternoon. With 4 legal forms, lawyer's oath, and numerous case problems, my writing hand is cramped.

Writing marathon at its best. I was really disappointed because I wasn't able to finish LEPE . Time's up. Please rise. Those were the words of the headwatcher and she said it while I'm just about to draft the last legal form - an information. I couldn't help it.

"Di ko natapos," I told myself. But I think it was uttered loud enough for my seatmate to hear. With a disgruntled face, he said: "Ano di mo natapos. Bakit? Maikli lang ang information ba't di mo tinapos?" He was also my seatmate on the first exam so we're a bit closer when last Sunday came. Of course, I wanted to finish the exam but I mismanaged my time. It was really too long and I know he knows it. But what he said made me worry much.
