Finals are Finally Over

Yes, and with the end of finals comes that ambivalent feeling of, "What should I be feeling"? Bad because there are not any more opportunities to prove myself, or good because I have finally accomplished something great? Great is the question. Only time will tell if last minute, 4 a.m. study sessions were ultimately more productive than hours making outlines and chugging through class notes and book facts. Yes, the devil is in the details. So, I threw out the details and went with pre-made outlines, skimmed cases and lots of practice exams, a focus on blackletter law, and of course handy review questions from review sessions. These came in most handy as they were on the exam itself! Getting a specific average is integral to doing well, so going below would spell a subtle type of doom, beginning as a tingling of nausea and overtime evolving into self-loathing and ultimately either...okay, so why predict the worst? Let's move on. All the practicalities of real-life that I've ignored for the past three weeks await me. And, omg, it's summer! Yes, a real-live summer. And it's mine!
