I keep telling myself "this is good, this is good". I figured, until I realize how important this study [law] is, I will never push myself hard enough to even make it to second semester in law school.
I have to write down what i specifically remember during the discussion today in persons and family relations as well as in Criminal law.
Civil Code, I was a bit relieved that we did a run around with article 11 because I had to be substantially familiar (as how atty Castro would put it) with it. It was about the requirements in obtaining a marriage license. We did a quick intro on that up until article 25. Boy! Marriage is a lot of work from the point you are to bring it up to the local civil registrar to the other formalities like marriage certificate, license, Consents and circumstances affecting its validity. Remind me again of the exceptions on each legal provisions. One thing I noticed is, we have these legal provisions as baselines, but when it comes to the implications or application to a case/commentary, it can be really tricky figuring out if the case falls within the context of the provision or if it steers away to the exceptions. Assignment articles to read further is articles 26 up until 36.
Our Criminal Law discussion today was interesting, it matters a lot indeeed if the student studied in advance because, all the professor would do is to tackle some of the main highlights off the articles and discuss, substantiate it with a couple of good anecdotes and examples from the book and its all up to us students to read the cases and commentaries. The felony chapter was a lot of work, but the new assignments caught me off guard. the circumstances affecting criminal liability is SOMETHING. I mean the topics makes up almost half the bulk of the text book. i was able to take down notes, but I thought they were crap cuz i cant keep up with the professors pacing, and all there is on my notes were phrases that is almost undiscernable and incomplete.
by the way, I am hoping that my writing style would improve. I wanna write like a real lawyer. I have to drop my almost informal writing schtick and crossover to more definitive and intelligent writing style. I can only hope for the best.
No Pressure Indeed!
