A Bar Exam Checklist


  • Nutritional, non-perishable snacks for Dustin's lunchbox, check.
  • Frozen icepacks to ensure the lunch stays at an optimal temperature, check.
  • Three, ironed "green" shirts for good luck, check..check..check.
  • Dustin's "lucky" pair of boxers (blue and green with horseshoes and clovers--if you can't pass the bar exam with this pair of underwear then no one can!) P.S. Don't worry I plan to do laundry every evening, hehe.
We just had pancakes and bacon for breakfast and now Dustin is doing the last minute touches on his studying. The first part of the bar begins tomorrow morning! Luckily, the exam site is less than 2 miles from our house, but knowing Dustin I have no doubt that he will show up to the exam site by 6:30 am as he says he is going to, to ensure he has ample amount of time in case the unpredictable does occur. Tomorrow's portion of the test counts for 20% of his overall score and he will be done around 1 or so depending on what time they get started. He plans to take it easy each day after the test, have good dinners and touch up on the next day's exam topics before going to bed early -- or at least TRYING to go to bed early....his nerves and anxiety have set in. Dustin has done everything right when it comes to his study schedule -- he took 3 days off for one lake trip, but other than that has hit the books 10-12 hours a day following his graduation...HE IS PREPARED!!! As Oprah once said "Success is where preparation meets opportunity," and this is it for Dustin, one could not be more prepared. Please pray for Dustin over the next three days that he will be calm, collected and can perform at his max....the rest will fall in to place--we all know how smart he is. : ) THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
