Spring break is here. A time to get away from the law and focus on self; myself. I did so by going to Vegas. We stayed at the Bellagio. It has art galleries, amazing high-end fashion shops, great shows, and phenomenal views. The pool area was wonderful as well and most of our days were spent tanning (or I though I was tanning but my SPF50 worked way too well). We also had a few great meals

Season 2 of 24, 10am-11amOr not. But the van used in the show was. Another proof that Armenians are running Hollywood.Specifically, i am referring to the dirty old van that was utilized by the white, non-Muslim, terrorists who used it to transfer supplies, which were used to cut off CTU's phone lines in order to get access to a telephone company van, which would be used to infiltrate and

GRAND HOTEL DUCAP-FERRATSouthern France is an extraordinary place. The people, friendly, the food, pricy yet divine, and the views beyond belief. We were there for only a few days, but this place has become an absolute favorite of mine. The hotel is situated near Paul Allen’s gorgeous estate and is a luxurious getaway for the super wealthy. And rightly so as everything is three times the price.On

I arrived in Bologna, Italy, 15 days ago. Haven’t been able to relax yet. My mother insisted, rightly so, on seeing as much as possible. So we traveled to Venice, Florence, and Rome. While in Rome we met a Sonoma county couple whom we liked so much that we joined them on VIP tours around the city and stayed at the same hotel. Florence and Venice were great and doable in a day or two. However, all

The last few weeks have generated much anxiety.Finals are coming up and I have had little in terms of fun.The mock trial tournament went well. We made it all the way to the Semi-Finals. I am very proud of my teammates. They were exceptional.Miami, however, was less than impressive. The city reminded me of Ensenada. (Not a good thing in my book). South beach was impressive though. Lots of hommies

The last weekend, actually the one prior, was spent in Las Vegas. I was the STAR witness for the regional tournament. To say the least, we did damn well. Unfortunately, UCLA’s team of awkward looking cheaters prevailed in the final round against us. They made up facts that completely destroyed our theory of the case.

Yesterday was my last exam and it happened to be the most cruel and unusual one. My criminal law professor, a darling and a truly exceptional teacher, wrote an exam that was meant to confuse, disarm, and left many feeling, including yours truly, in need of a drink.Of course I needed a nap first. So right after school I drove home, jumped into bed, and slept for 8 hours. After which, I prettied

Yesterday’s outing to the luxurious “Engine 57” for lunch turned into one hell of a day as I discovered that I was overdrawn on my ATM card. It seems that over the last 5 days some Austrian sun, or daughter, of a biaaatch has been using my ATM number to shop. Overall almost $3,000 gone in a matter of days. The bank (WaMu), clueless as they are, did not catch the excessive charges nor did they

Unlike the Roberts nomination, conservatives and democrats should both be extremely worried. " Miers " is no judge, not a political loyalist (supported Gore and Clinton then worked for Bush), and is a woman who has yet to commit on the abortion issue. Is it relevant that she attended a second tier law school (Southern Methodist University)? Certainly, as it challenges her intellectual

I have been busy and have lacked the will to blog as my intellectual curiosities have been challenged in class; leaving me little to share through prose. Law school is both exciting and tiring. My professors, with one layperson exception, are extraordinary teachers. To say the least, I am enjoying them immensely and am at times in awe of their presence. Any one of them would make a great mentor.

Have already done 3 nice museums."The Museum of COMMUNISM" is brilliant with its mock torture room and grocery shop that carries a single brand. Met two Texans who had just taken the Bar Exam. They sure were happy.Also visitted the Museum of Spiders and Torture where i noticed a particular medieval fondness of anal torture. YIKESThe Prague Castle with its museum was also nice but too touristy. On

I have finally arrived and am very excited.The last few days in Vienna were fun as i met an interesting, and smart, Saudi who's father is a member of the government and has close ties to the new king. A trip to Saudi Arabia is in the works.Learned a lot about Islam, Saudi democratization efforts and other vital Muslim world issues, as well as had 2 days of fun with him. We saw "The Island" in

Day 3 was spent at the upper and lower Belvedere’s. Both house impressive collections; the former has a new exhibit on post WW2 Austrian, and the latter has a cute collection of Baroque art including some of the most detailed “squinting face” sculptures I have seen.Around the same area is the majestic Karslkirch cathedral. Luckily there was an ongoing renovation and we were allowed to climb to

There is hardly anything inside for sale and he is certainly you know of what belief.

Antonin Scalia is turning out to be my favorite justice. Yes, he argues against gay unions, and is a hard-core traditionalist. But, at the same time, he is super bright, exceptionally clever, and his writings are full of great trivia (but never trivial) facts. He is also the cleanest writer on the bench.Sampling from the recent McCreary County, Kentucky v. American Civil Liberties.---------------

It feels as though I have been blindfolded for the last year. There is no single or adequate preparation that one can execute in order to feel comfortable. There really aren’t any books out there that both address the issue and are worth reading. Susan Estrich’s latest only deals with getting into law school. She hardly addresses the issue of necessary preparation - most likely because it is a

A Great Epic RuinedSaw the final Matrix in IMAX. The Wachowski brothers have finally been revealed as half witted intellectual wannabees. Even the presence of Cornell West cannot enlighten these two. The story is numb; lacking the intellectual stimuli that the audience both expected and deserved. The visuals suck too. I recall leaving the theatre after having seen the first Matrix. I was amazed

Gosh, this woman really makes me laugh. Her latest piece earns her some new funny points at the expense of the Democrats. As you may know the Democrats have stopped talking about real issues. Instead they are trying to gain points, not the funny kind, by describing personal sob stories.
