I'm trying, but I can't stop referring to contract law as "econs". It's funny to think that the free-association pattern in my brain goes "talks about money stuff = economics" even though all I'm memorising is cases on damages and compensation for botched deals.
Business law curiously doesn't create the same sort of connection. Maybe it's early days yet. By the by, we're finally breaking free of partnership law this week to do company law. Yay!? At least the cases mentioned come from casebooks so I won't have to trawl about on Westlaw to "get" the cases. Ordinarily I'd enjoy exploring Westlaw but time constraints.
Back to doing contract law assignment. Y'know, I think I understand what this case or that case is about, and what underlying principles there are, but when the prof gives out a hypothetical problem, I just go "huh?" I think I need to read more criticism to give my brain the tools and language to discuss the issues.
I have now discovered in myself a propensity to use green ink when making notes on (printed) cases. Also pink, orange and purple. Just adding a bit of fun to the reading process. :)
Feeling under the weather. Hope it passes soon.
