back to library, books & case law..

3rd week of the semester in my faculty marks the commencement of all tutorials... unfortunate for us law students, besides having to attend lectures in the morning, we also have to go for tutorials in the evening.. maka bermulalah our busy schedule.. no more lepark2 n gossip2 during free period.. it's time to head back to the library, dig up case law and prepare tutorial questions provided.. today alone, i had 2 tutorials - public international law + cpc with my dear grandpa Tariq :) rase penat giler.. isk, gotta straightened myself out and prepare myself to my usual busy routine la (mental note : get out of that holiday mood dee!:S )

interestingly enough, as i was dragging myself from one class to another, my baby bro Syazwan @ Acik, sent me several text msgs, asking me about several latin terms applicable in legal field.. fyi, he has to take construction law + contract law + some basic malaysian legal system for his diploma in QS @ UiTM... kelakarnyer, every text msg sent starts with this q - "ape kebendanyer ni...??" hehe now u know rite Acik, law is tough!:P

just to share, here are some of the words asked :

ratio decidendi = reason behind the decision

inter alia = among others

stare decisis = judicial precedent

to Acik, good luck yea? will send off notes required soon.. :P and i need to hit the bed, another long day awaits..

That's what a sister is for...helping a brother. Remember helping him is helping you too. Knowledge (words) practised knowledge expanded!

p/s: y do they have to use difficult words when simple words will do just fine?
