Classes start up tomorrow and I’m wrapping up some paperwork from my summer between the first and second years as an evening division law student. Also going back to work after taking some much needed annual leave. Tried to get the apartment in a cleaned up state, invested in some new shelving and rearranged some of the furniture I think the little adjustments make a big difference in the bigger scheme of things. What we lack in horizontal space is made up for in pretty high ceilings. The shelving I bought today makes better use of that empty space for sure.
Still trying to get one last book for my con law class, it was a new edition that was supposed to be ready earlier this month but the publisher still hasn’t delivered it to the bookstore. I’m sure there are a lot of us disgruntled evening students out there grumbling being that we dont’ have much free time to hunt down a book that was supposed to be there already. Even amazon doesn’t have it listed as an incoming title. Oh well.
Actually read up on one of my books for my required seminar class on Catholic Social Thought and Jurisprudence during the plane ride home and back. Some parts I found very interesting, other parts stuck me as very weak arguements, I almost began thinking that the writer hadn’t done a very good job at proofing his argument for logical errors. I almost thought that I could come up with a better religious arguement even though I am not Catholic. Then again I suppose from a non-Catholic I may be missing a thing or two written between the lines, then again maybe its something lost in the translation from Italian to English.
While I’m at it studying this for class, I wonder if there are any good Buddhist books on law and society out there. Maybe more in the area of Alternative Dispute Resolution section.
