(You can't see the whole thing in the picture and I have another level of shelving on the way...I have a lot of books waiting to live in their new home still!). I've been studying for the California bar exam and really have not liked it much. Today, I decided to notice things that I DO like about studying for the exam. Here they are:
- It's nice to be out the door with hardly any fuss. Jeans, tshirts, a little mascara. I'll just start twisting my hair the moment I start concentrating anyway, so why bother prettifying it?
- I can mix up my study spots. The Belmont library, the office at home, the bed... today I realized on a sunny day, I can even study outside in January here!
- The mints they leave on the tables at the hotel where the bar review course is held are tasty.
- I don't get unexpected "emergency" calls that have to be dealt with pronto at work.
- If I pass this thing, I'll feel pretty smart.
Looking at the positives is way better than stressing out and hating the process! Since I have to do it anyway, I'll look for positives each day. Wish me luck!
