Oh hey, today was semi-productive. In a way, I guess. Actually, I was semi-productive after 8 last night. I even started the job search. Granted, I started it at around 1 after I had finished reading for Monday's Property class, but at least it's something. I woke up to plans to see The Dark Knight on IMAX at 12:00. At 10:30, this did not leave me much time. I used this time wisely and proceeded to post the previous blog entry about a list of celebrities under 25. In my defense, I actually also printed out a couple of cases for moot court and retrieved them from the library (go free printing from Westlaw and LexisNexis.).
Met Gina and Jamie at 11:30 in the library and we walked over to the Metreon to see TDK. I think this might only be the second time I've seen the movie in its entirety. We have the movie at home, but I'd only catch moments of it because I was either running around doing something or playing with Bruce. Anyway, this was also the first time in a while that I've seen a movie on the IMAX (In a while is relative considering the amount of movies I have seen on the IMAX at the Spectrum). Anyway, seeing this movie on the IMAX was definitely an experience. The movie was good. Harvey Dent didn't die this time...kidding (though I still argue that if they go through with a sequel, he can still come back).
Also, a lot of movies are coming out on IMAX soon. There was a REALLY lame teaser for The Half Blood Prince (which is also in 3D...). The new Star Trek looks amazing. I finally saw a trailer for The Watchmen, which also looks great. This is going to be another good year for geeks, I imagine. There was also some Dreamworks animated film that looked funny.
Oh yeah, so the Metreon does this silly light-show type thing before showing the movie that talks about how great IMAX is and what not. They show you the speakers behind the screen. They're so big. They don't do this at the Spectrum unless it's some recent development. Maybe they just don't have cool speakers. I don't know.
The movie ended a little before 3. We were going to walk back together but then I saw SALE and VIRGIN MEGASTORE and stayed behind. They didn't have any of the CDs I was looking for. I sadly cursed the man and went to Rasputin. They didn't have them either, so I sulked and took BART back. This wasn't out of laziness, but because it was 3:30 and I had forgotten that I signed up to volunteer at 4:00 at the Water Law Symposium that was hosted here at Hastings today.
I changed and went over to the event. Sat around at the front making sure people signed out. The volunteer coordinator let me go watch the last panel after a while. It was really interesting and I actually kind of regret going to more of this event. The panel I saw seemed to be mostly about the delta smelt and other local endangered fish. A lot of it went over my head, but I really liked the last presentation.
Didn't get to homework until 6 pm. I think I did well, all things considered. Finished ConLaw for Wednesday and Contracts for Tuesday. Read through more cases for Moot Court. And resumed job search work. Kind of. Should probably get back to that actually.
