This Paratrooper is JMPI'd and Standing In The Door

The time has passed quickly and the California Bar Exam Version 2.0 kicks off next Tuesday morning. I have not blogged much about "February" and I think there are several reasons.

First, I just have not been as stressed out this time around. I have already faced the enemy once and I know its face. I have been in the exam room and experienced the meltdowns and breakdowns. When you are at rock bottom its easier to take a pirate stance and fight back because you are at least on solid ground and you can't go any lower. I may have found myself lying on the ground under the lowness of the limbo bar but the music is still playing and I get another round. This time I am more flexible and can feel the beat of the music.

I also have a cheerleader that believes in me more than I ever believed in myself last summer. She has walked along with me listening to my increasingly annoying discussions about

Dependent Relative Revocation and Abatement By Extinction, and even tolerates my elemental comparisons of common law burglary to modern law burglary. In fact once I toss some Dying Declaration and Present Sense Impression into the conversation she sticks her tongue in my mouth.

I'm still working through memorization and recall checklists, but overall I feel more prepared this time.

Anyway, since I don't have anything bar exam that is interesting to write about I'm going to have to find some new topics for my apparently well read blogshit. Since we are going to Disneyland next Friday after "February" I might have something fun to write about.
