Find girls outside of the LS. I know that it's almost tempting, because your classmates are right there, but you'll be a better person if you compartmentalize. (Have you seen Up in the Air?)

Don't stress too much and use hornbooks throughout the year.

If only Messi could turn it on for the Albiceleste the way he does for Barca, this could be a magical world cup.rgucsb wrote:thanks vanwinkle, big Argentina fan? Messi is unreal puts Christiano Ronaldo to shame

Messi is easily the best football player today. I'm hoping he can bring us the Cup this year.rgucsb wrote:thanks vanwinkle, big Argentina fan? Messi is unreal puts Christiano Ronaldo to shame

I'd recommend giving yourself one mental day a week, that strategy worked well for me.
Also, obviously, Van Winkle's comment is TCR.

Re: Best Advice for your 1st year in Law School
Haha, a beauty no doubt. Man, I am so psyched for the Cup this summer. I've got the whole month blocked out for it. I would say my fav memory of the last Cup was that insane Maxi Rodriguez goal when he took the pass off his chest and blasted it in midair against Mexico.

That game was awesome, but Argentina's 1st game against Serbia and Montenegro was one of the best displays of football I've ever seen.dakatz wrote:Haha, a beauty no doubt.

I just want to Echo Badfish.
If there is one thing that Professor's tell you that is incorrect, it's "Don't use Hornbooks."
Your life will be much less stressful if you just read a hornbook on the topic of your nights cases, and then read the cases. I don't know why I didn't do this last semester. It was silly of me.

Where did you see him play? I was in Spain for a Barcelona game (which was absolutely insane, with 100K people there, though not quite as crazy as the Boca Juniors game I went to in Buenos Aires), and I also went to a USA vs. Argentina friendly at Giants Stadium 2 years ago.Tofu wrote:i just realized that i've seen messi play live (though i had no idea who he was until 5 minutes ago hahaha)

I saw Michael Owen score a hat trick against Colombia a few years back at the meadowlands. That was pretty special.
