You would be remiss if you did not share one of your famous law school summaries with the class. Although law focussed, they are a useful tool to a) boil down a mess of facts into a chronological/logical order; b) spice up the study process by justifying otherwise unproductive time surfing the Internet for appropriate illustrations; and c) they may just help you learn or retain more. BTW, glad to see the cartoon of my obsessive "law lecture recording" habit reused.
I should also plug the "rolling briefcase" as aproductivity tool. An office on wheels may save the verterbrae of many a student keener and there are many cool choices from Roots to Obus Forme beyond the uncool "pilot bag" I used at U Ottawa. Or you could just get a locker....
Cheers, Margot, LL.B.
I'm going to adopt your procrastination-prevention strategy, starting first thing tomorrow.
The interview technique could be a useful blogging tool too. I'm going to try that.
