London Fog

After our overnight flight from NYC, we arrived in London around 11AM. Our flight into Gatwick was phenomenal and the airport was amazing (highly recommend.) In New York, we met Italian brothers who gave us directions around London. We took the Gatwick Express into Victoria Station, and ventured around London! Here are a few ofContinue reading “London Fog”

Just a Quick Update!

We made it to London! We have an 8 hour layover before we head off to Prague, so we’re going sightseeing of course. We met a few Italians in JFK that gave us the highlights that we have to hit; I won’t give them away, pictures to come! After a quick face washContinue reading “Just a Quick Update! “

Away We Go

As we wait out our layover (definitely not with a $12 mimosa in hand), it seems now is a good time to update y’all! We are off! Alarms started blaring before the crack of dawn.. Thank goodness my mother recommended we put our backpacks at the back door, packed and ready to go. We madeContinue reading “Away We Go”

New Type of Countdown

So the test is over. I now know all of the laws for nothing. Before you ask, we have no idea how we did – results come out at the end of April (projected for April 29). Feeling okay about it but worst case scenario, we retake in July. But in better news, we leaveContinue reading “New Type of Countdown”

11 days to go

Now that there is less than 2 weeks before I still for the bar, I spend around 16 hours of my day sitting at a table with my head in a book. My Fitbit is questioning my steep drop in steps per day. Since I never move, when I HAVE to leave the house IContinue reading “11 days to go”

Changing Your Travel Plans

Every time we book a flight, I always wonder what if.. What if something happens and I can’t make this flight. What if I have to change my dates, time, or cities. Well, it happened.. and it wasn’t that bad. Here is what we learned. Due to unforeseen circumstances, we had to move our flightContinue reading “Changing Your Travel Plans”

Coffee is a MUST

We have 27 days until the Texas Bar Exam, and my go to is obviously coffee these days. I started thinking about what phrases I need to learn before traveling to all of the different countries on our list. I downloaded Earworms in Mandarin a few years ago when we hosted a few schoolsContinue reading “Coffee is a MUST”

Every Time We Book

Everytime we book a new location our excitement builds. We are nearing the end of our booking stage which is wonderful and saddening because I know it means we will eventually have to leave the fairytale. Just to give you an idea of how this started… we started off trying to plan a specific routeContinue reading “Every Time We Book”

32 Days

I’m definitely not panicking.. The sheer amount information you are required to commit to memory for 3 days is a hard pill to swallow but knowing we only have a month left.. The fact that this is my second bar exam has been useful, not that I remember a large portion of the material, butContinue reading “32 Days”
