6) “i am an idiot”: If this has to do with failing your state’s bar exam, stop it! No, you are not an idiot. Just remember: "Be patient and tough; someday this pain will be useful to you." If this has nothing to do with the bar exam, get off my blog.

7) “bar idiot”: For more information, see above.
