So I start my last year of law school tomorrow. Part of me is excited and part of me isn't. This last week that was supposed to be spent lounging around and being lazy was an incredibly hectic rush of getting things prepped for the new year - a lot of law journal stuff and a lot more trips to SF than I would have expected.

Anyway, I really can't believe the summer just flew by like that. In some respects, doing my first full-on SF summer makes me feel like I was kind of cheated out of the drippingly hot summer the rest of the country had (except maybe not).

Last weekend before school was fun. I saw Scott Pilgrim this morning, which was awesome. So many geek references in one film. I loved it. Seriously, all the actors were great. It was a lot better than I went in expecting it would be (I mostly went because of Jason Schwartzman...).

Also, we saw SJ Earthquakes play LA Galaxy. Okay, I was rooting for my home team and I was very happy that they beat Galaxy, but I'm not going to lie. We were squished in the corner and after the roller coaster ride of the US team's performance at the World Cup, it was kind of awesome to be like 20 feet away from this guy when he was doing his corner kicks:



It made me a little sad that all the Quakes fans were booing him, but I guess we're supposed to hate him or something. Whatevs.

Tomorrow: Yelp Elite event. Some preview night. Supposed to be 40s themed dress, but I didn't have time to put something together, so I'll figure something else out.

Tomorrow is my first Yelp Elite party. I'm excited.

Other than that, have been busy trying to do work with a longer commute than what I have for school and a daily hour long trip to the gym. Means every day is pretty tiring and I'm out by 11:30. Trying to get laundry done right now before the trip (going on a family trip next week) and Gianni's graduation.

Oh and i used the rest of my LexisNexis AmEx card on Pokemon Soul Silver. Don't judge me.

One final down and three more to go. Next one is on Friday and it's closed book (yuck).

Meanwhile, I've been fooding my way around Redwood City. Joining Yelp might have been a bad idea. On the other hand, my desire to discover new places has landed me some great local study spots. I guess it's win win.

Still no summer job yet. Kind of put it on hold when I realized I had to learn Professional Responsibility in one week. Hopefully next week when I've got a little more time I can throw out some applications. I have one that I'm waiting on. While I'd love to get it, I need to stop throwing all my eggs in one or two baskets. Sooo back to that grind next week. That and re-learning Evidence and IP. Fun times.

On an unrelated note, what happened to Gossip Girl? It was never really an amazing show, but they really can't be so out of ideas that they're throwing out soap opera cliches like terminal illnesses at us. Really Gossip Girl? Really? Is someone going to go blind next?
