Update

I am almost at the end of my month off before I start work. I haven't done much during my time off. Mostly stuff with the house and reading books. We did buy deck furniture on sale at Walmart for the deck and are going to waterseal the deck next week. I got to see my new office at work--SUPER exciting but it makes me even more nervous that I bombed the exam. To be honest--most of my time is spent trying not to think (obsess) about it.

B has next week off so we are going to try to do some fun things before my summer is officially over.

I actually have been busy

The Bar is over (this time anyway). I'm not feeling too confident about the results.

The day after the bar we packed up my 2 bedroom apartment (that somehow we were unable to fit into a 15 foot Budget truck) and moved into our new house!! I have been unpacking ever since. Loving the new house--its little but cute and perfect for now--but loving more finally living with B! Although we had clearly stayed together at the apartment, this is the first time we have officially lived together. Although he hasn't actually brought all of his stuff here yet....but that may be because his mother cries everytime he visits now. (she lives 10 minutes away--seriously).

I have the whole month of August off and I'm trying to enjoy it without worrying about Bar results every five seconds. I haven't actually done much other than house stuff--but I did at least start on wedding stuff! I am waiting for the reception places to return my calls, I called the Church, and I got the wedding dress started. I am having my mother's dress remade, and I think its going to be really pretty! However, I have done NOTHING else for the wedding. That's one of the goals for August.

MEE

I am wondering if the MEE will test of very specific law--as it seems to in the BarBri yellow book...or if it will test broader areas--such as negotiability and HDC in Commercial Paper. Are we really expected to know every single little exception?

An Example

In question 10 of the Corporations essays, I knew that a quorum of S/H was a majority of the S/H entitled to vote. I also knew that for voting, a majority of those shares actually voted was needed. What I didn't know was that Directors are elected by a plurality--they do not need a majority to win--the Directors with the most votes win.

Scared

Also--I'm deathly afraid I'm going to get an essay question and have NOTHING to write. This has happened when facing some of the BARBRI sample MEE's. I don't even know where to start.

Freakin

I was ok this morning--feeling like I had a lot of stuff memorized. I did a couple Secured Transactions essays--still feelin ok. A few Commercial Paper essays...ok a little more worried. I got to some Corporations essays and now I am completely freaking out again. All this shit on voting and common stock and wtf. If they ask about promoters or forming a corp or de facto corps--I'm golden. If its S/H voting--we may be up shit creek.

4 days.
