Lawskul Drama Tuesday, Sep 2 2008 

Isang magandang bagay sa pag-aaral sa isang lawskul ay ang hectic na skedyul ng mga propesor n’yo.  Madami kasing mga paglilitis sa kung saan saang korte, pagsasaliksik, atbp.  Dahil dito, marami talaga ang pagkakataon na wala kayong klase dahil wala ang propesor.  Ang masaklap na bagay sa pag-aaral sa isang lawskul ay palagi-laging makakahanap ang mga propesor ninyo ng paraan para bumawi.  Magmemake-up class sila kahit anong mangyari, matapos lang ang sandamakmak na babasahin na kailangan para makapasa kami (OO, makakapasa kami…) ng Bar kapag kailangan na itong kuhain.  At dahil sila ang mga magigiting naming propesor, kailangan namin umatend ng make-up class.  Wala nang angal-angal pa.  Pag sinabing may make-up class bukas ng alas-singko ng umaga, kailangan kang pumunta kahit na puyat ka at alas-tres ka na nang madaling araw natulog.  Bakit?  Kasi, kapag natawag ka ng propesor sa recitation at wala ka sa class, aba, isang nagsusumigaw na singko (5.0) lang naman ang makukuha mo.  Walang tanong-tanong.  Kung wala ka, at natawag ka, singko na yun.  Kaya kaming mga abang istudyante, talagang pumapasok kahit hindi nagtsetsek ng attendance ang propesor.

Kaya ganun na nga.  Dahil malapit-lapit na matapos ang sem at wala pa kami sa kalahati nang dapat namin pag-aralan, nagkaroon kami ng isang make-up class kahapon.  Umasa ako na dahil make-up class lang naman siya at dapat ay binibilisan na namin ang diskusyon, ay magiging mabait ang propesor namin.  Yung tipong hindi na siya masyadong magtatanong ng detalye ng kaso na inaaral namin o maninigaw ng mga hindi makakasagot.  Mas mainit kasi ang ulo ng propesor, mas mabagal ang usad ng diskusyon kasi may mga sigaw at pagpapagalit na kasama kapag ganito ang sitwasyon.  Pero nagkamali ako.  Asa pa akong mangyayari iyon.  Buti na lang hindi ako ang kawawang nilalang.  Ganito ang mga pangyayari…

Pagkapasok pa lamang ng propesor namin sa silid-aralan, nagtawag na ito agad ng sasagot.  Okey naman ang natawag, kasalukuyan na siyang nagrerecite ngunit may tinawag pa ang propesor namin na ibang istudyante…

Propesor: Okay, Mr. *****, continue…

Mr.****: ……… (hindi makasagot)

Propesor: Have you read the case? (medyo galit na si propesor)

Mr. ****: no sir…(sabay iling)

Propesor: why have you not read the case?  You had so much leeway already.  Mind you, the deadline for dropping this class is next week.  Get out!

Yan, yan lang naman ang aming sitwasyon sa subject namin sa propesor na ito.  Magaling siya, pero mabagsik.  Hindi ako naniniwalang hindi nagbasa ng kaso ang kaklase ko.  Pakiramdam ko, naunahan lang siya ng takot at kaba.  Tipong nais na lamang niyang matapos ang kanyang paghihirap kaya isinuko na lang niya ang laban.  Pag sinabi niya kasi na nabasa nga niya ang kaso, tatanungin siya ng tatanungin ng propesor namin tungkol dito.  Tsk, tsk.

Pagliliwanag lang, hindi naman lahat ng propesor namin ay mabagsik.  Lahat sila magaling (uyy…sipsip…), pero hindi naman lahat kasing bagsik.  Hehe…swerte lang talaga ang klase namin at siya ang naging propesor namin sa subject na iyan.  Oh well…

joke time…Merry Xmas! Monday, Sep 1 2008 

haay…ung roommate ko talaga na yun.  sabi niya sabay kaming pumasoksa class.  8 am ang class niya, ako naman 9:30 am.  So supposedly, papasok na siya, gigising palang ako… haha.  Pero dahil nga sinabi niya na sabay kaming pumasok, eto naman akong si gising ng maaga.  1 am pa man din ako natulog kagabi…  tapos, tapos… bigla niyang sasabihin sa akin, pagkatapos kong gumising, kumain, maligo at magbihis na mauuna na siya.  huhu… five minutes na lang sana fully prepared na ako.  Pero hindi na niya ako nahintay.  Joke time talaga…  Oh well, meron talagang mga bagay na mas importante kaysa sa pagkakaibigan… tulad ng nagbabadyang pagkalate sa klase.  Sayang, babatiin ko pa man din siya ng Merry Christmas! Hehe…since di ko na nagawa sa kanya un, ikaw na lang…Merry Christmas!!!!

Are Readings Male or Female?? Sunday, Aug 31 2008 

A friend posted this on her blog.  I do not know if this is a repost but since she did not tell, I have no way of knowing for sure.  Anyway, I think I am not infringing any copyright laws here.  Maybe this joke is on the public domain.  Eh? I don’t know, I haven’t gone that far in the Law yet.  Patience, patience.  Anyway, here it is…

Male or Female? You might not have known this, but a lot of non-living objects are actually either male or female. Here are some examples:

FREEZER BAGS
They are male, because they hold everything in, but you can see right through them.

PHOTOCOPIERS
These are female, because once turned off, it takes a while to warm them up again.

They are an effective reproductive device if the right buttons are pushed, but can also wreak havoc if you push the wrong buttons.

TIRES
Tires are male, because they go bald easily and are often over inflated.

HOT AIR BALLOONS
Also a male object, because to get them to go anywhere, you have to light a fire under their butt.

SPONGES
These are female, because they are soft, squeezable and retain water.

WEB PAGES
Female, because they’re constantly being looked at and frequently getting hit on.

TRAINS
Definitely male, because they always use the same old lines for picking up people.

HOURGLASS
An hourglass is female because, over time, all the weight shifts to the bottom.

HAMMERS
Male, because in the last 5000 years, they’ve hardly changed at all, and are occasionally handy to have around.

THE REMOTE CONTROL
Female. Ha! You probably thought it would be male, but consider this: It easily gives a man pleasure, he’d be lost without it, and while he doesn’t always know which buttons to push, he just keeps trying…

Haha… I was really amused with this joke.  But here, let me add something that I think law students (along with Political Science, Philosophy, Creative Writing, so on and so forth, students) might relate to.

READINGS:

Male.  Why? Because you even when you have spent many hours with them, you still can’t understand them and after you are through with them, you just want to throw them into the bonfire…

hehe… wait, i think this is applicable to girls as well.

Speaking of readings, i have tons of them right now.  Sheesh.  More about the blood curling details regarding these readings on next posts…

Prima facie Sunday, Aug 31 2008 

It’s not that I have all the time in the world to blog.  It’s quite the contrary.  But blogging is a part of me already.  Since I started blogging, I make sure that I update my blog once in a while.  As a matter of fact, i have several working blogs–blogspot, multiply, ahm… blogspot.  However, there is no anonymity in that blog, hence, i can’t fully express myself, knowing that whatever I say could be and would be used against me.  Haha.  Not that it is anything bad.  It’s just that sometimes, it’s fun to write knowing that the other people reading your entry will not prejudice you–because they don’t know you! haha.  Ano ba yan, anonymity, prejudice…such big words!  Let’s blog the day away!
