Time to Reflect

Section A Karaoke: Janet Jackson's hit "What have you done for me lately" conveniently explains one of the most basic concepts of Contracts Law-- "Consideration theory"

This "ass grab" is a bargained-for exchange or a "quid pro quo" ..... lol

I have heard someone mention that law school is the most expensive education that you teach yourself. I completely agree.

Sure, there are exceptional professors and there are even average professors that might have an extraordinary moment or two. But the bottom line remains: you have to teach yourself the concepts before class even discusses them. Plus-- no matter how well you know the basic principles, unless you practice relating them to real life situations in which the "Reasonable Person" is king, you will have little chance of success.

Two exams are done at this point and I am realizing that it is very possible to get through this without too much pain. I can't believe how far our section has come. We went from a classroom of 100 blank strange and scared faces to a semi-confident and friendly team. I'm amazed at how easy it has been to get to know those in my section and how friendly we have all become.

Its like we have all suffered through an initation together and even if that is all we have in common, we feel a sense of connection and brotherhood. Its like we all have a pact of comraderie with one another, even with those whom we havent formally met or even talked to. We all are part of Section A
