I have finalized my schedule for my last semester in law school. I can’t believe this is my last class list – wow, time flies! It is a very random schedule, but it works: Partnership Taxation Advanced Legal Research Advanced Legal Writing – Drafting Contracts Minority Rights in Israel Independent Research in Corporate Lawyer Ethics…

Whistler, Baby!
Yesterday I returned from a four-day ski vacation in beautiful Whistler, Canada. We had three superb days of skiing, two at Whistler and one at Blackcomb. We hardly encountered any lines the entire time, weather conditions were gorgeous, and snow conditions were fantastic. From six foot cornice jumps to moguls to steep and deep, we…
Oh Canada!
Tomorrow early in the morning I head out with some friends to Whistler, Canada (British Columbia), the greatest ski resort in the world. This year the weather promises to be decent, the snow pack is healthy, and it’s an awesome crew coming out for the pilgrimage. I am pumped!!! 🙂 Dreaming of turns in powder…
Lake Tahoe Skiing!!
This weekend I headed up to Lake Tahoe with friends for some skiing. We drove up Thursday night and returned Sunday morning and skied Heavenly on Friday and Alpine Meadows on Saturday. The views from Heavenly were gorgeous, but the real quality skiing was at Alpine Meadows. I really liked the terrain and options at…
Stormy in CA
I’m back in CA for the last few days of winter break and I must have brought the Seattle weather because it has been stormy the past couple days with heavy rains and strong winds. The wet and blustry weather pattern is forecast to persist through the weekend, although the strongest storm has just passed….
East Lake Sammamish Trail
Today I had a great run along the East Lake Sammamish Trail which is literally 2 minutes drive down the hill from my house. The rail-to-trail runs from Issaquah to Redmond over 11 miles along the shores of gorgeous glacier-carved Lake Sammamish with views to the Issaquah Alps and Mount Rainier. (The photo below from…
Redmond Watershed
I had a good run at my old stomping ground – the Redmond Watershed on Novelty Hill. The trails are really fun and despite being a bit muddy today (but not as bad as it can be in the winter), I had a lot of fun and got into a rhythm. The run was 67…
Alpental Skiing
Yesterday I went up to ski Alpental with my friend Colin. The skiing was fantastic with great conditions for late December, decent weather, and absolutely no lift lines – we literally skied onto the lift every time! The cold weather of late has also produced a lighter snow, which is rather atypical for the Snoqualmie…
Snoqualmie Valley Trail
Today was the first sunny day since I have been in Sammamish (it took 13 days!). The sky was a clear, the air was crisp and fresh, and the temperatures were relatively pleasant in the low-40s. I took advantage of this rare treat and ran the Snoqualmie Valley trail between Carnation and Duvall for 100…
Back to it
I finally had a good run on Saturday, but it was a long time coming! On Friday I ran about 6.7 miles and felt pretty miserable. My stomach was giving me problems for some reason, my legs felt tired, and there were all kinds of aches and pains – the 47 minutes were not the…
