Wow. Just too many things getting on my nerves lately.
Went to get my taxes done today. I'm getting back $43 dollars. Woo hoo. Big money, no? And I am paying around $300 for preparation so I'm actually not getting anything back. It just sucks. I hate taxes. People talk about big refunds, but I've never seen one. It's just not fair. But I could go on and on, so I will stop this rant here.
On another note, found out today that my dad is moving back to Alaska. And how, you might ask did I find out? Did he tell me? Nope. I found out on Facebook. Gotta love that, right? There is so much more to this story that I could write about, but I do not have the time nor the energy to do so. However, it will make for a great story and entry later on!
And I'm kind of getting annoyed at people. One of my best friends just got to Vegas for a girls trip for celebrating finishing her mid terms. Seriously? I didn't get a fun trip for graduating law school or taking the Bar exam and she gets a Vegas trip for finishing mid terms at a community college? It just doesn't seem right or fair.
As for me, I'm here, at home, studying away. I have 18 days until the Bar exam and I am FREAKED out. I have good days and I have bad days... Days where I am positive, and days where I am utterly petrified. I am just beyond freaked out of failing again. But I know I need to think positive and just keep working hard. So that is what I am trying to do.

Friendly Update....
Just a quick update that is not really exercise or book related. It's been a long time, no?
Well I am back to studying for the Bar! Today is crimes focus and I am nearly done with one of my self imposed "assignments" and I have approx 3 more to do. Woot?!
I am working on getting back on track with my Bible in 365 days resolution I made this year and should be back on track by the end of the week. I fell behind for a bit, but I am still making up ground and it is still completely doable for this year. I am amazed that come the 31st of this month I will have read the ENTIRE Bible! Wow! I have so many notes from what I have read, whether it be scripture verses, questions, comments, etc. Maybe next year my goal will be to focus in more on some of the questions I have found myself asking from this years' studies.
Looking forward to Christmas, almost have my shopping done and need to get to wrapping things.... I doubt having my gifts all stowed under my bed is a good means of hiding them. Lol.
This Saturday is my dad's side of the family Christmas party and I'm helping my dad host it this year, so I will be headed down to his house on Friday to stay overnight. It should be really fun as always! :)
Then on Sunday I am hosting a Christmas party with 5 of my close girlfriends here at my house. We did a gift exchange thing where we each picked one girls' name and get to buy them a gift. Two of my friends are bringing food items to share, I'm providing beverages (holiday inspired), and I think the other 3 are going to bring a combo of treats and drinks to share. Should be a LOT of fun!
Also, I think my sister and niece are coming up tomorrow to visit me and that we might go up to Portland to see the Zoolights display at the Portland Zoo. It should be really fun. My niece just turned 15 months on the 8th and she loves lights.
