The adventures of a middle aged law student

Sunday, April 6, 2014

we zig and we zag

These final days race by and yet drag simultaneously.  There is not enough time to memorize, practice and assimilate.  Yet as always during exams, I am anxious to have them done. No matter how on top of things you might be in a given semester, exam time is anxiety inducing to the point of absurdity.  I didn't know one could sustain such focus before law school-I'm certain I never did it in my undergraduate days.  I'm not sure if this is character-building or life-shortening stress!

I'm sitting in the classroom on this fine Sunday morning-the sun is shining, it is supposed to get up to 72 degrees today and I will be inside.  But only for a little longer, and I hold onto that thought.  I have to say that it helps a great deal to know that later other students will join me here, and we will slog through yet more Bus Orgs together.  On my own I am not sure I would have such tenacity.  Sometimes things get silly, and the conversation turns to other things, but we move the ball forward pretty consistently.

Countdown:  8 days to the first exam and 16 days to the last one.
