The walls have begun to close in. I recently opened up the BarBri Early Start Bar Review Course Schedule. ARE. YOU. KIDDING. ME?! How is it a slow-paced primer when you are paced to do 4-6 hours of bar prep a day while you are still in classes?! Oh my!

Not only that, I recently took the MPRE. If that test is allegedly easier than the bar then I may have a serious problem. You better believe I took the whole two hours. Even then, I was still second guessing some of my answers. Ugh, I guess the bright side is I can take it again. I should have listened to the attorney who said they though it was tougher than the bar. That fourth practice test I decided against seemed like a good idea after walking out of that auditorium.

Even more fun are the new training courses I have taken on at the office. Two a week for the month of November ON TOP OF the training of my own staff to cover my duties when I take my leave of absence for bar prep. Ugh. I hate to complain because this is what I signed up for.

And so it begins…the slew of lists and schedules to make sure all of my obligations are being met and I am making the most of my time. As an example, I am typing this while I soak in a hot bath, while I listen to state required videos on the differences of our state’s laws, while I wait for my sheets to finish in my dryer so I can make my bed and hit the hay.

I just keep telling myself “this will all be worth it!”
