As you may well know, reality TV star Kim Kardashian is is studying to become a lawyer without going to law school. She’s currently finishing up her first year of a four-year apprenticeship with a law firm in San Francisco, and her goal is to take the bar exam in 2022.

Just how dedicated is she to her law school studies? Kardashian constantly updates her social media channels to let the world know where she is in her coursework. Back in May, she showed us a criminal law issue spotter that featured some of her famous friends, later lamenting the fact that law student life sucks, and due to her studies, she “won’t have time for events, for favors, for friends, for literally anything, for four years.” Following up on that, she admitted that she neglected her Keeping Up With the Kardashians livetweeting duties to keep up with torts homework. Now, the hopeful lawyer in training is even ignoring holiday festivities as she kontinues to keep up with kontracts (ed. note: please believe me when I say that was just as painful for me to write as it was for you to read).

“While everyone is probably at a barbecue, I am studying contracts today,” she said off-camera in a video posted to her Instagram Stories. Check it out, below:

Pay attention, 1Ls, because in case you missed it, Kim K. has the cutest little mnemonic device to help her remember the basics of contracts: “Love For Dogs Treats Every Rover Terrifically,” which stands for Law, Formation, Defenses, Terms, Excuses, Remedy, and Third Party.

Kardashian originally announced that she hoped to take the California baby bar (aka the First-Year Law Students’ Examination) “sometime this summer.” That exam was administered on June 25, but there was no indication that she sat for it — which was probably a good thing, since the overall pass rate was only 24 percent (the best result since the October 2014 test). Her next opportunity to do so will be on October 22.

She seems to be doing well with her studies, so we wish her the very best of luck!
