It's Reading Week. Or what is otherwise known as "week off doing any work and then having a panic at the end when you realise you should have been doing work"
Of course none of my regular readers will be the bit least surprised that I actually plan on studying a lot this week. Today I will mostly be attacking my Legal Research coursework. Obviously I want it to be good but it seems somewhat frustrating to complete a piece of work and work hard at it, only to be assessed as "competent" or "not yet competent". That basically means that a person who got 90% is as good as a person who only got 51%. This does not bode well for my competitive streak!
However, for one day only I am conducting an experiment and staying home, instead of hitting the library - this may be a mistake.
The pros are that I only just got up, and feel rested and refreshed, there is no transport involved (well I am going out this evening but that's a whole different issue), and I will save money on lunch. The major con is that I am a library bunny at heart, and working at home sometimes poses distraction problems.
Best get on with it, wish me luck!
About Me
- Susie Law School
- So, here is my blog. It's all about me, unsurprisingly, and my adventures through life and law school. Law school that I have wanted to attend since I was about seven watching LA Law on TV. And since my Law studies at school and my masters. And of course the inspiration provided by the Honourable Elle Woods, the original and best Legally Blonde. So yes, I'm blonde, I'm a law student and I like pink. I have not as yet obtained a small dog to keep in my handbag but I'm getting there. Those things cost a fortune!

Hi LB, Agree re the grudging BVC marking system - I found my first "not competent" mark a bit harrowing, and a bit unfair. There doesn't seem to be much consistency in things, and I found the teaching truly awful in the most part - a couple of exceptions that were highlights of an extremely dull week.
Re staying at home vs library, I think that it is really tricky. I am v easily distracted and so find the home option can be pretty wasteful unless I have a v immediate deadline.
Golden rule - absolute bar on TV. One should really also bar the internet, but that would be too mean!
