My search for a legal job for this summer has concluded! I will be interning at the Federal Trade Commission in Seattle! I am really interested in the work they do and it is in Seattle. It wasn’t easy finding a legal job in Seattle, but I think it turned out for the best. I…

Crystal Mountain Skiing
For those of you who haven’t heard of Crystal Mountain, it is located in the Cascade Range of Washington State right next to Mount Rainier (a colossal 14,410 foot volcano with 28 sprawling glaciers). The resort was recently ranked 7th in the nation by Skiing magazine. The lift system is great with two high speed…
Spring Break!
Spring break is fully underway. On Friday, my sister had a birthday dessert party at her house. It was really fun and, of course, the food was so tasty. My sister makes a healthy cornbread that is delicious. It’s made from scratch from all organic ingredients – I feel good about stuffing my face with…
Trail finally opens!
The East Lake Sammamish trail, which has been the subject of a bitter struggle between adjacent homeowners and the county for over a decade has finally ended. See the article here. The old railway has finally been converted to a multi-purpose trail for the citizens of the Lake Sammamish area to enjoy. The 11 mile…
Ticketing in Bars?
I read this article on msnbc.com about Texas ticketing people in bars for being drunk. The whole idea does not sound good for bar businesses in the lone star state. The law seems so arbitrary and subjective. Many people come to bars with designated drivers and just because one drinks a lot does not guarantee…
Yea, another Tuesday
It’s Tuesday = busy. Lots of class, but I engage myself as much as possible to make time pass. Actually, all my classes were interesting today; con law, antitrust, and law, technology and privacy. In antitrust there was a pretty good discussion about monopolies having exclusionary effects. I tend to look at these cases from…
Trader Joe’s
Today felt more like Seattle; it rained (sometimes hard), it was windy, and it was kinda cold. I am well accustomed to Seattle weather, but I have come to expect sunny and warm days in Cali! I have full faith the weather will rebound later this week, just in time for when I go back…
Quinoa
Have you ever had quinoa? You should definitely try it. Quinoa grain comes from the Andes of Peru where it has been cultivated by the Incas continuously for over 6,000 years. The plant from which Quinoa is harvested, a species of Grassfoot, is especially hardy, growing in poor soil, wet climates, and high elevations (up…
Not much going on
As usual, I hit Arrillaga today. Today I did back weights and then hit the elliptical EFX for 38 minutes. It was a good workout. The weather today was awesome, beautiful bluebird skies and a comfortable temperature around 60 degrees. I took advantage and biked over to Stanford Shopping Center to pick up some items….
What the heck
So I just biked over to Molly Stone’s to purchase some groceries. I am in the store for literally 5 minutes and I come out to find that my new bike light that I just got from parking and transportation is stolen by some low-life bonehead. Seriously, who the hell goes around looking for bike…
