If you sing those words to the tune of "Peaches" by the Presidents of the United States of America, you'll find that they fit very well with the song.
And this is what I will hum to myself when I start (continue) to freak out, and do my damnedest to psyche myself out. See, my biggest fear isn't really failing, it's passing. When I pass, people will expect that I know how to do things. It's scary, the learning curve. I know everyone has one; it's just that I'm impatient and I want to already know how to file motions, format documents, be all clever and stuff.
Today I printed out all my outlines and got them all together in a (relatively) small document. Total, there's probably 20 pages. My goal was to shrink down all this detailed information into the shortest phrases possible. (Yes, I got the inspiration from Twitter.) That's a better way for me to learn than mnemonics. And this time around, who cares if it's Bar/bri approved?
Later, when I find the cord that connects my digital camera to this machine, I'll post the very clever picture I took of myself that I think clearly signifies how I really feel about this whole mess.
Until then, here's the blatant begging for good luck wishes - have at it, people! I'll be here until Sunday!

You are quite right to be pumped and psyched, and I hope whatever mantra you use stays with you and sees you through every question, every problem, every last detail of this exam. i think you're much better prepared, you know what to expect, and you'll be wearing the perfect test ass kicking ensemble for the occasion. I promise to keep you in my thoughts, and I want to be one of the first to say "Congrats, I knew you'd rock that sucka!" so long as that doesn't sound too white-rapish. Hugs and go get 'em!
Kick ass and take names, Stine.
You're going to be awesome! As our friend C would say, "It's an insult to your intellect!"
I'm behind you the whole way. You're your best advocate. Now go show it!
You said "When I pass, people will expect that I know how to do things." It's the same w/ nursing. You pass the NCLEX and all of a sudden you feel like you have to know how to do it all, but soooo much is learned on the job. It's nerve-wracking at first, but then you accept that this is everyone's experience...to be expected. You'll do great!
