tales from the dark side

day 3 of no phone.

7th consecutive day of barbri class (no wknd to speak of this past wknd! class from 9-530 on sat and sun too--soldier on bar examinees!)

temperature in P100 (large classroom i took you guys to see on the day of the law school brunch thing) steadily dropping to the point where i am freezing in jeans, and 4 layers of sweaters. flip flops are no longer a feasible footwear option. did someone say its summer outside?

in honor of my bleak mood and bleaker existence i have written the beginning of a song:
not to worry, its a song w a positive message, a song of hope. its called "i will survive":

"i will survive"
at first i was afraid, i was petrified
but then i took the simulated MBE*, and then i actually died inside
could not keep straight that crazy wacky FRE*, could not remember--what qualifies as admissible testimony?

and now im back
in the freezing room again!
cuz we still have lots more subjects to cover
even though weve already covered more than ten!

i should have studied far more crim
i should have studied far more torts
if id have known for just one second
thered be such tricky qs of all sorts!

alright now--time to go!
walk out the law school door!
oh but wait, im not really free--
its just time to study more!

werent you the one who tried to hurt me with bad grades
you thought id fail out
or transfer to a worse school, or die!
but no not i!
i did survive!
and now as long as i have eyes to read
ill study for this stupid test and i know i will survive!

ive got all day long to study
and then all night long as well
and ill survive!
i will survive!

*MBE=multistate bar examination
*FRE=federal rules of evidence

ok wills part ii just ended. time to head off to the oral surgeon then hop on a china town bus to go look at an apt in NYC and then head back to philly before it gets too late to come back and study! woohoo!

this concludes todays portion of Tales From the Dark Side: Tori's Life
hope you enjoyed!
