My civ pro teacher referenced Gob's chicken dance from Arrested Development during class one day. She even started to do the "cuka cuka" and clap a little.

I can one-up both of you. My K's prof (in his thick Dutch accent) made reference to Amelia Bedelia in class last week.

Re: Taylor v. Sturgell, Civ Pro prof talked about the grand tradition of restoring World War 2 planes to fly at airshows and crash them into crowds of children. Said it's a favored pastime whenever NASCAR isn't in town.

I hate citation exercises more than anything. Except perhaps legal research. What a waste of my life.

Yup and hour and a half for 5 exercises, 3 of which I got wrong. 2 of which I can't figure out why they are wrong.

Our ICW's are ungraded. I just make a half-ass effort while I watch TV. I usually end up getting 90% wrong.

Over 50% wrong and we have to meet with our TA.

Ours are like 10% of our grade. She says it's ok if we get like one wrong, but, I've been way worse than that.

[kalvano]

It's actually even worse when it's ungraded simply because the give-a-shit factor is so incredibly low.

Yep. I tried for the first 2 ICW assignments, but now I don't really care. For our last assignment, I was shocked that I got 2 correct out of 10.

Also, fuck Texas. Fuck this stupid state and it's asinine special citation requirements.

Texas has always gotta be "different."

Urgh, so I feel like I'm floundering. I've been playing catch-up with some of the reading, and it hasn't given me anytime to step back and analyze the bigger picture in my classes (so no outline yet...). I keep getting the feeling that I'm missing some super important points, or that I'm not absorbing stuff correctly (even though I feel like I understand everything in class), and it's really worrying me.

[traehekat]

Aight, legal writing is officially a bitch. It's like, there are a bunch of different ways to synthesize these cases, and they all take forever to figure out. So you could be synthesizing them in one way for a long time, only to realize there is another way to do it that is probably better.

Fuck.

Ah. That might help.

Isn't it due in about 12 hours?

My stupid Torts class - since the beginning of the year, we have covered intent, battery, assault, and have spent a week or so, so far, on defenses.

Glacially paced.

I hate you for even being able to ask that.
