over the hill

last two tests!!  i’d like to say it’s all downhill from here, but sadly the "test of tests" still stands in the way.

our finals for property is oral.  it’s one of those things you’ve heard stories about, looked up, but don’t exactly know how to prepare for. 

if property could be likened to one big tidal wave: start of the sem would be an innocently mild rumbling below sea level (seaquake), midsem it gains momentum at about the time ownership is discussed, and days before orals…that’d be about the time you’d see people running for the hills in their boxers at 5:30 am in the morning.

sigh, i hope we all do ok. 

funny story: before a test, a group of people in class would always make it a point to ask st. jude to intercede in their prayers.  i was part of this silent circle this morning, it was only today that i realized what he was the patron saint of….lost causes.  hahahaha nice one guys, way to give ourselves that extra confidence boost before a big test.

i think it helped though. as badly as that torts test violated me, i kindv expected worse. 

prayer…the ultimate lubricant

    Al, the last word in this entry reminded me of Jude’s (Jude.. hmm… St. Jude… wala lang) email to the egroup. HAhaha. OK lang naman siguro ang property. The batches before us survived. So will we.
