speed blogging

I'm becoming a prolific typist as the finals come near. I have spared myself five minutes to tell you why I do not like my property class. At first, I thought maybe because it was rooted in uninteresting medieval practices. Then I blamed the 8:30 start time, which forces me to trudge through a 1 1/2 hour commute.

But what I figured out today is that my professor values rote memorization more than thinking. I've asked her several questions about the reasoning behind some of our material, and I usually get an answer to the effect of "Because I told you so." That drives me nuts! You're supposed to teach me how to think like a lawyer, lady! If I wanted to practice pure verbal vomit, I could just go back to college.

Man, I'm not as fast as I thought.
