Studying has really taken its toll on me this week. I woke up a couple of days ago with some major upper shoulder pain; definitely a product of spending too much time reading. I did two things to cure this pain: (1) I got a 3-month membership to a therapeutic massage place by our house; and (2) I have been using Icy Hot and I feel (and smell) like an arthritic grandmother.
I have been having a hard time focusing on studying these past few days; my mind keeps wandering to how great it will be to put this exam behind me. I know that I really couldn't have studied more, so if I don't pass, I will have no regrets about my lack of effort. There is way too much information to know, and I have accepted the fact that I will not know all of it; hopefully I know enough to pass.
I have lots of fun things to look forward to after the bar exam; this is what I have planned for my first week and a half of freedom:
- having breakfast with a friend before he moves to California (I will miss him!)
- a massage to make my shoulder feel better
- my friend's bachelorette party (we are having a spa day; I can't wait for a pedicure!)
- getting a haircut
- our first wedding anniversary :)
- E taking a few days off of work so we can relax at the cabin with RatDog
- starting my job on a full-time basis
- reading for fun (I ordered a bunch of cheap, used books off of Amazon and have been getting them in the mail over the last few days)
We won't know whether we passed until October 8, so hopefully I will be able to push any anxiety that I may have out of my mind between now and then.
