When I woke up this morning, as I do nearly every morning before getting out of bed, I checked my email (nothing good), then checked Facebook. One of my fellow classmates (and a wonderful lady) posted this:
So as I begin studies this a.m. I remember at least one thing from this past week... I "get" to do this... I don't "have" to... truly it is an opportunity and a blessing... but don't ask me to smile all the time through the process ;)
I must say... I think she is on to something. I too am studying all morning (well all day) and as the days continue, I notice that some are easier than others to wake up and get going. Other days thought, it seems almost impossible to get up. However, she is right. This is a choice I have made and it is a choice that I must get through - not that I have to but that I want to - because if I don't, I have nothing!
After one week of what I would like to refer to this as "bar study madness" I feel as though I am mentally, physically and emotionally drained. I have held back the tears (on most days) and I have fought through and made it to the end of the week. Now I must power through the weekend, complete my tasks, check them off my to-do list, remember to have fun along the way and survive!
The countdown has begun... in 52 days I will be taking the bar exam. While that may seem like a lot of time to some, it seems incredibly too short for me. But as they say, this too shall pass and before I know it I will be enjoying life again and will actually have a life to enjoy!
Back to the books I go!
