elwenDone at last with contracts, at 34 pages (by one line -- I'll fix it before printing if it's still like that after the review session), with 2 pages of TOC and a little over 3 pages of checklists. Apparently we talked about a whole crap-ton of doctrines with a billion factors each, and yet the application of all of them is so fuzzy I didn't really have that much to write about under any of the sections. Compare this to crim, where I got more and more carried away with how the doctrines were applied and how things could get fuzzy.
For some reason I had always thought I'd be the kind of person to have outlines that were "short and sweet", so to speak. I thought my civ pro outline after the midterm boded well: straight listing of tests, with an amazingly short section listing the cases that developed personal jurisdiction considering how many days we spent on it in class. But I guess all the sections just add up. Also, I'm apparently more meticulous about including summaries of all the cases we discussed -- this trend must not continue for torts, considering we went through several cases a day, and often had in-depth discussions of the note cases, too. Then again, I got pretty good at making one-line summaries of tort cases...
So at this point I was supposed to be done with all my outlines and starting in on practice tests for crim on Monday. Which means I have no effing clue when I'm going to do my torts outline. I might try to fit it in between exams, if they don't totally stress/freak me out. I think I would be fooling myself if I thought I could get it all done next weekend in time for the exam Monday morning. And that's ignoring other important things like, say, taking practice exams and being well-rested.
*sigh* Somehow this whole "behind at the last minute" thing doesn't really surprise me all that much. All-nighters it is. -_-;;
I am not even going to think to myself at this point that I should have 3Ked torts. Even if I had, I'd still want to do more than rely on someone else's outline, even if I might ultimately be forced to do that without the benefit of 3K.
