split right down the middle

oh....
tried and tried and tried so so hard to understand Question 2, May 2002 Zone A.

"Does section 78 of the Police and Criminal Evidence Act 1984 enable judge to exclude improperly obtained evidence where the reliability of the evidence has not been affected by the way in which it was obtained?"

i read that question over and over and over

and i still couldn't get it.

i really don't know what's gotten into me. its not that i suddenly have lost all sense of responsibility whatsoever and decide not to do my assignments anymore, its just that its so technical, and when things get technical, geri gets...confused...

sometimes i really really want to hand in a good assignment instead of slogging last minute and passing up a half-cooked job. i get no sense of satisfaction whatsoever, but i do it so that i wont get into trouble cuz "i did pass up after all". so what actually is the priority here? to hand in an assignment on time and doing it simply or to take your time to hand in a good assignment? i admit, i have done that on many occssions, and just hentam only, but when it comes to evidence, i realised that i just could not do it.

simply because, i know nothing about what i am suposed to write.

so how to hentam?!

usually each essay is supposed to be done in 45 minutes but that is after you've known your stuff, and there is no need for references. i usually try to read up before i do a particular assignment so that i can at least try to understand what it is i am writing about. and that takes time *cry*

so back to the question at hand (one of 3 assignments for Evidence, all also requiring reading first *crycrycrycrycrycry* ) i decided to refer to my trusted friend, Mr Christopher Allen.


like a good girl, i highlighted the issues, re-read a statement twice if i didn't understand, you know, the usual stuff..


was i so aggressive and engrossed in what i was doing until i didnt know that my book got injured in the process?

split right in the middle summore.
and i still haven't begun to write the opening sentence for my essay yet.
