Case in point: I went to bed at 8am on Friday.

I feel like Crim is pretty straightforward but outlining it is a PAIN in the ass.

My property outline feels useless. Feeling like torts all over again with all the minority rules, case names, etc. which was great in torts because that was all multiple choice but could be the death of me when I have to write essays about laws and shit.

At least your property professor (well, hopefully, anyway) doesn't ramble on in a very confusing manner about the "normative basis" behind every rule.Bronck wrote:Tell me about it dude.

Didn't get as much done as I would have hoped today....
Oh well, will try to get all caught up on Con Law outlining tomorrow afternoon, and then I guess do some supp reading in the evening?
