color coded

As law school draws to an end I want to document some of Jason's studying habits/quirks. Jason has never studied at the library, (except for the day we were evacuated from our building last year) instead he prefers to lay on his stomach on our bed with his books scattered around him as he types away on his computer. He sometimes has to stop because his arms have gone numb because all the blood has left them but he still prefers the bed to the desk. As finals get closer he can spend an entire day on the bed with a cup of sunflower seeds to keep him awake and a huge bottle of water to quench his thirst. Jason likes to drink caffeinated beverages but before he gets into his finals crunch he has to give it up so he won't get headaches during finals from the caffeine withdrawals. Each night after he has studied all day he has to take a break and watch at least a half hour of TV before going to bed to help his brain unwind. Sometimes he studies quite late right before a final so he also has to wear the headphones when I am trying to sleep - so don't feel too bad for me, I'm not the only one that has to wear them.

But my favorite of all his many quirks are his outlines. In law school a good outline is key to doing well on an exam and I believe Jason has mastered the sport. Some students wait till right before finals to draft an outline but Jason starts working on his from day one. I have no idea what the colors mean but he has his own system that helps him find exactly what he is looking for during an exam. Not only are his outlines color coded but his text books are covered with different colored tabs and the pages are splashed with neon yellow, blue, pink and green. I like to tease him about is highlighting fetish but I guess I can't mock it if it works.
