I Don't Think I Failed

I just finished Corporations and it wasn't as hideous as I thought it would be. It was long and detailed and there were definitely some answers I wasn't sure of. However, the questions were based almost verbatim on the cases. Makes me really glad that I caught up on my reading and didn't just try to wing it with notes alone. Phew! I'm glad that's done

Next is Mental Health and the Law on Monday. Assuming I make an effort at studying (which I plan to) I think I'll be okay since she TOLD US WHAT'S ON THE EXAM. No kidding. The last day of class she rattled off what the four essay questions would cover. Basically, we don't know the name of the mentally ill guy and his sister - most everything else is right there spelled out for us. The professor told us that last year the administration took issue with how high her grades were to which she replied, "I don't care." She said she figures we've been in class and have participated and have done the readings, why make the exam unnecessarily hard, which is refreshing considering the sadistic tendencies of law professors at exam time. Besides she's a judge. The administration is going to debate grades with a judge? Yeah, no.

And, oh yeah, I have to give a talk on Sunday. You would think since I'm the one who plans Sacrament Meeting I could have made things easier for myself - or heck, not even assigned myself a talk. However, the new bishop requested that I speak before the end of the year and the 19th was the ONLY time I could do it. I am SOOO not into public speaking and since my prep time for this talk has been almost non-existent - well, I'm going with the Spirit on this one. I think the bishop thinks I have good things to say, but I think he may be wrong. At least I think I can guarantee it won't be stream of consciousness (we had one of those a couple of months ago. It wasn't pretty)
