Almost there, just need a pinch of courage

Oh god, school has been so stressful. It feels like someone stabbed me in the stomach and chest. Teachers have been generous in letting me hand in stuff a day late. I��ve been getting most things in on time, just a couple of assignments I couldn��t finish in class.
I am scared when I think about exams. For law, there are 40 multiple choice questions, ten short answer, pick two out of three quotes and give your opinion, then an essay worth 40 marks. I am not worried about the essay because on the mid-term, I got 24/25 on the essay part, but only half on the multiple choices. The exam is worth 30 percent, unlike the family studies course which is worth 15 percent. There is a lot of material to memorize for law. There is nearly ninety definitions with examples we need to know, plus all the famous cases:
�� Sue Rodriquez;
�� Nancy B;
�� Overton;
�� Clarence Thomas;
�� Borde;
�� Terri Schiavo;
�� James Keegstra;
�� Tracy Latimer.
There��s more. I just don��t know what to study. We can��t even bring to class the articles that we are writing the essay for. Does he want us to fail or what?
Anyways, I fit my blue jeans again. I��ve also been spending time at the store with the wife more often now. She thought I was mad at her. I told her I was worried about the rent, but they honestly don��t mind me being a month late, especially after the holidays. She and I are kind of close but I am keeping her at a distance, not really telling her everything. There was a couple of times I just wanted to blurt out things, but I need to do this calm and collective. I keep imagining these scenarios in my head, then questioning it so that I think it won��t work. I guess what I��m trying to say is I keep contradicting myself.
She has a new great niece named Olivia, born on the 18th. I could tell my LL was scared of me being there. I love upping his nerves. He really doesn��t want me talking to her, plus he isn��t talking to me, it could have been because of the letter though. I promised myself I would tell her by the end of the week so maybe after school. But should I really do it when her son is there? Okay, if I get my short essay done tonight, then I can tell her in the morning. I wonder how this is going to turn out.
