Write-on schmite-on

First year of law school is over, but there's no rest for the weary. After three days of freedom where I spent more hours in bed than on my feet, it's already time to get back to the grind.

In the next 5 days I will perform a spectacular feat where I, the grammatically challenged Kat, will edit a 9 page paper full of legalese, footnotes, and errors. But that's not all. I will also simultaneously read 912 pages of legal opinions and scholarship and condense that into a 16 page paper of original scholarship. And this is all without much prior training or practice at all! Will I be able to pull it off? Is this madness or magic? Only time will tell.
