I am beginning to realize how much harder it is going to be to study for spring finals than it was for winter finals.
I fear the lovely weather. When it's dull and rainy, I can hole myself up in my room for hours, a cup of hot tea on my desk and my cats curled up on my lap. When it's sunny, however, I lose all self-control.
It was beautiful out today, the kind of day where the run-down buildings in the law school shone and even the dour security guard smiled.
Unfortunately for me, my final printed copy of my moot court brief is due tomorrow.
A good, conscientious moot court student would have shut the blinds and hidden herself from the terribly distracting sun. I, sadly for the quality of my brief, was not that student.
I did, however, have a great day. After class got out at 1:30, I lunched with my friends in an open-air cafe. Then two of us put on our walking shoes and went for a long walk around the city. We walked for miles, meandering down streets full of spring flowers and feeling warm breezes on our bare legs.
I am not unhappy at all about my poor, languishing brief. Spring is here!

Well, I'm jealous. Spring was here breifly last Friday, but then winter returned on Saturday. Durnit.
Perhaps you can partly write the brief outdoors, in the glorious sunshine? Wouldn't feel too deprived, no? =P
I am not very good at studying outside. Far too distracting. Though I could just *claim* I was studying outside...
Andrea, it has been spectacular here. We're pretty sure it's a fluke. But I'm enjoying it anyhow.
