The vacation is over (sniff!) and it's time to get down and dirty. The week before I went I did NOTHING. I am behind my schedule big time and need to catch up. This week at work was unpleasant to say the least, so this weekend I must get on top of things. Fortunately I made my schedule pretty loose so I have a bit of time...
I've filed my bar exam application, which makes it all a little terrifying. I filled out my form, forked up $1200 and picked my preferred exam locations. So now there is no going back and I have to actually learn all the stuff, eek!
So here we go. Crim Pro this weekend. I've done the reading, just need to do the outline. Sadly I fear that will take me more than the five hours I have between now and when I have to go and buy a last minute Halloween costume!

I've lost a little bit of momentum this week on the bar study front, mainly for two reasons.
1. The bureaucracy involved in moral character applications is making me super depressed. I get that I need to give you my fingerprints, despite the fact that the US government has my fingerprints in many many many places. I get that I have to go and get it done at the police station. I also get that you have to have a specific FBI form to put the fingerprints on.
What I don't get is that it is IMPOSSIBLE to get these forms from anywhere. You won't send me one, the police station doesn't keep them, so the only option is to PRINT one off the internet. This to me seems like a very bizarre solution considering the difficulty in obtaining these forms in the first place.
So anyway, I'm going to print the bloody form and we will see what happens... I'm sure that won't be the end of it. But this whole process has depressed me as it's making me feel like maybe this is too much effort.
2. I'm going on vacation in a week's time! Beach, cocktails, dancing the night away. This is far more exciting than bar study at this point. Yesterday I spent all day out shopping and picking outfits to take. This is exhausting, I will have you know. This morning I have finished up the packing prep and now I am finally sitting down to write my community property outline.
Well, the sun is shining, so maybe I will also go for a walk a bit later on...
