Con Law study group is due at the house in a little bit, but I wanted to breathe a bit after yesterday. We spent 3 hours in the morning working and realizing we knew nothing, and then proceeded to school for a "review session" by the professor. The short story there was we found out that the major essay on the exam is a 2 1/2 hour question. Absolute sheer panic for the majority, people began packing up and leaving 10 minutes in, realizing that their outline is woefully inadequate for this. This is an open book exam, and we did know this, but he kept harping on the fact that this exam, "...is quite time pressured...and you really won't have time to look at your notes." Did I mention the second essay, which is all theoretical constitutional philosophy? I went home, told the better half we needed to clean the house and get some snacks, and that I needed to write my notes and other outlines into a kick ass outline. 7 hours later I went to bed. Is it kick ass? Not a clue. Will I be ready? Maybe. I call this learning by sheer force of will. And all I keep saying is, this had better be worth it...because if I fail out after this? Oh, and in the midst of all this, during a forced gyoza-eating-must-rest-my-eyes break I found out that IA is taking down Attorneys Suck. I was devastated. However I'm sure his reasons are sincere and personal, and I respect him all the more for making a clean break of it. He was the first person to comment on this smattering of thoughts I call my blog, and I wish him the best in the future. And oh...great pictures by the way!
