Saturday:

An alarm clock should never have to go off before 6:30 am on a Saturday; yet, mine did because it’s finals time.  Complete exhaustion forced my half asleep brain to hit snooze (three times), but nonetheless I managed to get up, put myself together, and start studying before 8 am. 

I had a professor tell me last week that I should think of law school as a sport and finals is my “competition”; I should have fun with this and think of it as my time to show off.  As you can see from my “fun fact” I was a competitive dancer for many years and no matter how hard I try, this doesn’t come close to the way I felt when I would compete in dance. I’m going to assume for now that this is a feeling that comes with time, I’m guessing maybe as a 2L?

I have 2 exams done and 2 more to go! It’s exhilarating to think that 6 days from now I’ll be done with my first semester law school exams!
