Anxiety
OMG, the anxiety is crippling me. I cannot concentrate and I'm eating like crazy. I need to get through Con Law, Corps, and Property one more good time and there are only 4 more study days left. Still haven't done enough Con Law or Prop questions so I guess that's what I'll be doing from here on out.
Things left to do:
- read through
Corps
MBE state distinctions
previous MPTs
old essays
- do every Con Law & Property MBE question that I can
Is that too much left to do at this stage?

3,2,1...1,2,3...I won't let this get the best of me
We all know how many days there are until the exam. The thing that is frustrating me is that I cannot comprehend these freaking Con Law and Property MBE questions. They're so long and reading through the fact patterns is confusing me. If there is anyone out there still blogging, please HELP! Just had to get that off of my chest. Back to studying.

I can do this...right?
I'm a bit more coherent now! Today was officially the last day of work...I think. The next 11 or so days will be all about the MBE. I plan on focusing on that heavily and an essay topic or 2 each day. I'm not ready yet, but feel that I can be by the time I arrive in Atlanta on 24th. I have to think this way or else I'm going to have a freakin' breakdown.
Tomorrow I'm going to finish the remaining Crim. questions and try to do 100 Property questions along with Wills (my favorite essay topic) and PR. That seems like a lot, but is very doable. Crim will take about 30 mins as will Wills. I'll spend about 45 mins. on PR and the rest of the day on Property. I need to rack up as many points possible on the MBE.
Anyway, enough about the exam. Tomorrow's Valentine's Day! My stupid boyfriend has to work out of town tomorow:( He did, however, stop by my house tonight and deliver my presents and we'll go out to dinner on Friday! This was by far the cheapest Valentine's Day yet, but I got exactly what I asked for and needed so I'm happy. I got my chocolate candy! my flowers! more candy! and a new ipod! My old ipod is dying and it has all of my bar materials on it so I desperately needed a new one. He got me the top of the line ipod. It's so sleek and cool and I'm not going to sleep tonight until I have all of my music and lectures on it. I'll worry about figuring out the wi-fi and movies tomorrow -- after I go buy his gifts (if there's anything left).

time is flying
So, I haven't been on much lately. That's because I've been working (thankfully we've been limited to 40 hours per week) and trying to study. I feel that I'm at an ok place. Done with all the essay topics except ST and Comm. Paper -- halfway through each of those, but they haven't been tested on in years. Don't want to leave any leaf unturned though. Haven't really progressed through the MBEs. I've done 100 torts and 100 Evidence. 0 Con Law and 0 Property. I'm kicking but in Crim and doing well in E, but was disappointed with my 54% in torts, my favorite subject.
Work was supposed to end yesterday but they called a few of us in today. Don't know what that means. I've made flash cards for Civ Pro which is really helping and a great way to study at work. I also finally opened my MBE flash cards from PMBR which I've had for 2 years! I haven't booked a flight or hotel for the exam although I found a roundtrip flight for $150 yesterday. I supppose I will do that today and my mom said price doesn't matter for the hotel since I'm going all by myself. I asked my boyfriend to go with me but he can't get off of work. It's probably for the best. He can watch the dogs and I can be 100% sure that I won't get in an argument with anyone. The only thing that scares me is being in a big city by myself while taking the bar exam. There seems to be tons of hotels within 2-6 mi. of the testing center and airport so as long as I can get from the airport to the hotel to the testing center, I should be fine.
Getting ready to go to work. Hope to write more soon. Good luck to all, esp. repeaters!
