law school, so far

I always hear, "sanayan lang yan," to which I absolutely agree. I probably am already used to what we are doing. Proof of such is this very act of blogging. I can now afford the luxury of "not studying" and "not worrying" for mere act of blogging. I had afforded eight hours of sleep last sunday, and spent most of the time I was awake holding a book, without spending a minute reading the same. I needed a break, and afforded such break. But I also hope I could break a leg.

What follows is a list of sentences, phrases and/or words so remarkable that they served as objects of entertainment to nerdy law students of section 1-E.

"According to Paras" - Jana; "You know him personally? (or something to that effect)" - prof.

"Is the marriage (referring to a hypothetical question) valid?" - prof.; "Yes ma'am, that's valid bigamy." - myrtle

"Pepsi Coca Cola" (in explaining De Mesa v. Pepsi Cola) - oj

"Wassmer v. Velez. Ahm, Wassmer v. Velez... Of course, it's a story 'bout Wassmer and Velez." - hanz

"Ha?" (to a professor) - april

"Explain the case People v. Galacgac." - prof. (And here are the galacgac victims: hanz, oj, april, diory and neri)

"Sir, it's not part of the assignment." - des (okay, end of class)

"The pavement hit the girl..." - april; "What? Is that even possible? Can a pavement hit a girl?" - prof.; "It depends on the situation, sir." - april

Thoracic cavity (got shocked) - neri
