The rundown thus far has went something like this.... Try to study...get interrupted, get stressed out...have a breakdown....cry...study some more.. repeat
I must admit that after my meltdown on Friday I really did get things in gear. I have determined that in order to try to even pass this horrible horrible beast of a test I will have to put in at least 10 hour days from now to exam time... which is in like 27 days. This weekend I actually felt for the first time that I absorbed some material. I still am behind (Like I haven't even reviewed Crim yet and it should've been done last week) but I am making a valiant effort.
On Sunday I purchased a desk for my bedroom so that while Bean was sleep at night I could study and wouldn't have to worry about him falling off the bed. Yes my 10month old sleeps in the bed with my husband and I. lol. At any rate... why didn't I think of this earlier?? I feel like I've gotten more done in this last weekend than I have in a whole week of studying. I am current on the day's lecture, and assignments. What does this mean considering I'm behind on the Barbri schedule. Just this.... Instead of frantically trying to catch up on the lectures that i missed I did the following. I reviewed the outlines and took notes on the missed material. I then opted to just keep up with the day's requirements and have vowed to make up the material that's missed on a day that's scheduled not to have lecture. So hopefully, this will all work to my advantage.
Today was spent and will be spent studying Wills, and tweaking property. So far (at 5:45pm here) I have listened and taken notes on the days lecture, outlined 4 essays, spent 2 hours doing MBE's and reviewed some flashcards...accidentally fell asleep taking notes for an hour...oops did i say that? Not too bad considering I still have to be mommy and wife.
I just have to remember to eat and take care of myself. I'm finding myself forgetting to eat and then shaking or feeling icky. I know your like how in the hell do you forget to eat... but you try studying for the Bar.. its entirely possible.
Ok...well time to go and try to cram some more shit into this brain of mine.
Till next time...
Take care of you!!
