Panic setting in...

... I don't tend to panic about exams. I like them. I like revision and knowing stuff.

But today I feel impending doom.

A little bit like maybe a distinction isn't going to come my way. I have no benchmark, no idea how good an answer will have to be, but until now I've at least felt like it was attainable.

Today I'm not so sure.

I'm hoping this is just a blip. Coursework marks are out on Friday, I guess I'll have a better idea then.

I'm going back to Employers' Liability now.

Ok, it's gone...

...All I did was post what was on a number of other blawgs and people got so PISSY! I wasn't accusing anyone, just repeating what I heard, not saying it was fact, was I!?! Nobody else got abuse!*

So calm down people, it's gone. I can't be bothered with it anymore.

*Please note that some people did post politely that they thought I was wrong, this is not aimed at you, this is aimed at the people who were just unnecessarily mean and bitchy.

There's a new kid on the Blawg...

*drumroll*

Welcome, Accidental Lawstudent a fellow Law Conversion enthusiast/victim (delete as appropriate) who by the looks of it discovered the joys of blawgging as a useful procrastination tool in the countdown to exams.

Speaking of which, I tend to link to people who comment on my blawg but if anyone would like their link to be added to my blawg please let me know as I'm always happy to oblige :)

I shall now return to learn about legal things. Toodles!

Dear presumptuous person...

... who left a comment that I chose to delete because it upset me.

You don't know me, please don't pretend you do. You are more than welcome to have an opinion as after all, I don't write much about my personal life and this blawg is really only about Law School. But please do not make presumptions about the rest of my life based on it. My life is absolutely fine thank you very much. Just because I only write about studying does not mean I haven't got a perfectly vibrant social life, as many will testify.

I realise I do not have to justify myself to you, but people who make generalisations based on incomplete information annoy me.

Thank you very much.

Welcome to the world of revision

So Mummy and Daddy Law School's visit is over and revision has officially started. My social life is officially on hold until the 11th of June, apart from a few carefully selected engagements to break up the studying. It's quite exciting, albeit a little bit stressful but I have never been one to shy away from a challenge. If I didn't thrive on a little stress there really wouldn't be any point in becoming a lawyer.

This week I will be mostly finishing off all the reading I should have done during the year but didn't have time to/couldn't be bothered to do and highlighting and tagging all the relevant provisions from my statute books, ready for the exam.

My carefully selected social engagements are drinks with the girls tomorrow and a friend's birthday on Friday. But there will be no excessive drinking or suchlike, as the rest of the time will involve military-style precision for getting to the library and taking regularly scheduled breaks.

I hear many of you saying that it all sounds a bit too structured and organised, but that's how I function. Deal with it. It works and who am I to mess with a working formula?

Oh and Legally Blonde is on TV on Wednesday so obviously I will be watching that!

Brief update

Dear Readers

I am pleased so many of you have asked me where I've been recently. Mum and Dad Law School are visiting at the moment but regular service will resume next week!

Mwah!
