Determined Optimism

What's the only good thing about spending an entire morning arguing with the fact that the cockroach-ridden nightmare of a kitchen at the Malebolge seems to have been declared the "tenant's collective responsibility?"

After that, the idea of doing 100 pages of reading on the Civil Rights Act, about six case briefs, and an outline update is positively a stress-free joy.

i certainly wouldn't say blow off legal methods, as you can learn a lot. but please don't feel the need to outline it; the exam will have nothing to do with your outline (and its pass/ fail anyway.)

Thanks for the advice. I wasn't planning to blow off legal methods. My main incentive in doing an outline isn't that it's useful for the exam, but that I have no idea how to actually do an outline. I figure if I make the mistakes doing it this time, it's painless, and avoids work in the future. At least, that's the theory. You'll hear the result as soon as I know it. :)
