i seriously need to stop eating. it's 1am and im staring at my 2 (empty- duh!)bags of lays and half-eaten pack of khong guan sultana biscuits. sigh. i hate what stress does to me.
i hate evidence. i dont understand how people can say it's easy when it is NOT. pinsler is hardly useful. it tells you the law but it doesnt tell you what the contentious issues are. so i have to rely on muggers, which thankfully are well-written. Ok, i take that back. for example, "Evidential burden. Raise the matter in issue, less than to show likelihood. Merely to more than to show evidence of trifling and inadequate nature." now, what in the world was this guy thinking as he wrote this? is this some kinda code that i have to decipher now? argh. on top of that, i really dont get the issues because pinsler doesn't tell me and it isnt exactly the most organised textbook around. that sucks because if i dont evne know the issues, how am i going to prepare for it? ok i know i know. its my fault. having watched 0 webcast lectures, attended 1 seminar. ok fine. but it doesnt change the fact that i hate evidence.
if evidence is bad, what is family? oh gawd i dare not even think about it. and my brief encounters with the textbook ignites a new-found hate for a certain professor who cannot seem to write properly. someone's gotta learn punctuation. and how to shorten sentences. basically, go for lawr lessons.
its amazing how studying for exams are no longer as simple as open-your-textbook-and-slog-guts-out-trying-to digest-the-deep wisdom. studying has become a, i say again, code-deciphering exercise. whoever cracks the code gets to understand the textbook. THEN you talk about digesting.
why dont people just write in simple normal english? why why why?!
