University/College
StaedlerMars:
I was once up until five in the morning with a lady watching duck tales smoking pot after having gone to a breakcore/hardcore club night.
True story.
University is awesome when you don't have assignments due in.
Oh hey 15 page report due on Thursday, how are you?

Funny things that have happened in lectures this week:
* These guys burst into the first criminal law lecture and sang a song, before high-fiving the lecturer and walking out
* Our eldery, very well-spoken tort law professor yelled "YOU'RE A TIT!" in order to illustrate a point about puinitive damages
* We were informed that the defence "I was just urinating and the sheep backed onto me" is not a valid defence
I'm enjoying this! Although our lecture halls are ridiculously warm and therefore wonderful breeding grounds for all the germs that are going around. Almost everyone is ill.
Last night was the law society cocktail party and it was awesome. I ended up walking back with three second-year lawyers from my college and one of their boyfriends, and all four of them at some point fell down (in the case of one girl, three times in a row). I hate to think what kind of state they were in during their nine o'clock lectures.

i am having an incredibly hard time getting in touch with one of my professors in order to get a letter of reference because i think she has disappeared from the face of the earth for the next few months for maternity leave, and it's probably hell of rude for me to keep trying to contact her but i need her recommendation so bad because she's the professor who taught the course basically completely 100% related to what i want to do my thesis on and also i did really fantastic in that course and it would be immensely helpful to me to have her say good things about me pretty much.
should i just give up and leave her alone or keep trying to find a way to get in touch with her?
Barmymoo:
Providing she isn't actually hanging up the phone when you ring her, I think you're probably ok to keep attempting to contact her. What have you tried? If she isn't responding to a work email address is there any way you can get alternative contact details from somewhere? Maybe try writing to her; it's less invasive but more formal so might elicit an answer. Good luck!
Pee ess I have written fewer than 1000 words and I have run out of intelligent things to say, exhausted my ridiculously under-informed opinions about things I do not understand and am beginning to consider concocting an elaborate conspiracy theory about the influence of the praetor in the development of the civil law, involving dragons and chalices of poison.
supersheep:
from what i remember of first year that is probably enough to get you a good two-one, maybe a first if you draw pictures of dragons in the margins
