Basic Gist of Typical Conversation in My Head

[Just completed grading my 50 PMBR property questions for the day].

Self Conscious Elle: My score did not go up.
Confident Elle: These are the first property ones you've done since PMBR 6 Day, it will be ok.
Self Conscious Elle: My score did not go up.
Confident Elle: You haven't done anything for property since PMBR 6 Day, it will be ok.
Self Conscious Elle: My score did not go up.
Confident Elle: These questions seemed a lot harder than the PMBR 6 Day ones, it will be ok.
Self Conscious Elle: My score did not go up.
Confident Elle: You're still scoring higher on property right now than most people do on the bar, despite it not being your best subject during law school, it will be ok.
Self Conscious Elle: My score did not go up.
Confident Elle: This is what you get for slacking on these Friday and then for the remainder of the weekend as well, you could have spent the weekend reviewing this stuff if you'd just sucked it up and done these Friday night when you got home from work.
Self Conscious Elle: I'm glad you're finally seeing it my way. Vodka and Soda with Lime perhaps while we read these explanatory answers, which most likely will not be any help at all since they will get it down the 2 answers you debated between and then say "___ is the better answer" with no further explanation?
Confident Elle: Why yes, that seems like an exquisite plan.
Self Conscious Elle: I cannot believe my score did not go up.
Confident Elle: At least you've been managing to use the correct grading key unlike some people.
Self Conscious Elle: Word.

Yeah, this stuff sucks. I have those conversations in my head all the time, too, but I can't blog about them because you'd think I was nuts. And I go back and forth between thinking I'm studying too much and that I'm studying too little.
