It is an interesting time to both be learning Arabic and waist-deep within International Law. FYI: California has the largest Syrian population in the nation, and the OC itself should expect hundreds of Syrian refugees escaping the crisis in Europe, according to the Syrian American Council. The United States in general projected about 70,000 coming in as refugees. It'll give me a chance to take on some mediation work (in refugee cases it's mostly rent disputes). Arbitration is just something done on the side, but it'll help keep my electricity on which is pleasant.
As for the bar exam itself, power outages, blood, women going into labor, breakdowns rivaling Exorcist pea-soup spewing, and natural disasters seem to top the list of horrors. My only horror was my laptop freezing toward the end of the third day wherein I think my hair turned white (again). Never wanted to puke or scream to such a degree before.
But, life goes on and so do the dreams. Will I ever escape this castle? (No, the answer is no).
