Along with Matterhorn Peak in Northeast Yosemite, I plan on climbing Mount Shasta this May. I will be bringing along some newbies so I intend on doing one of the easier routes from the Bunny Flat Trailhead, probably the standard – Avalanche Gulch. As you can see from the picture below, the route looks like…

Last class of 2L year
Today was the last class of my second year at Stanford Law. It’s amazing how fast it’s gone. I have only one year left and I will actually be a practicing lawyer. It’s still kind of a weird thought, but I’m beginning to see myself being successful in the “real world.” After all, Stanford is…
Research Paper Complete
My research paper, entitled “The Wave of Chinese Solar IPO’s on U.S. Exchanges: Reasoning and Implications,” is now complete. I invested a lot of time and effort into this project and I am very proud of my work. I found the topic very interesting and it was great to learn about it in-depth. It’s nice…
Early Wake-Up
The last early wake-up Friday is now over and I can sleep peacefully at night knowing I don’t have to wake up for anything. I have one class remaining Monday evening and then it’s all review and studying for the final. I’ve got to be diligent about studying the next few days. Other than NBA…
NBA Playoffs
The NBA regular season is now over and the playoffs are set. I am excited for some great match-ups, especially in the ridiculously deep western conference. I’m really pulling for the Golden State Warriors to cause the Dallas Mavericks some problems, and I think they can with their high-octane offense. I think every series in…
Condolences
First, my condolences to the families of the Virginia Tech students who lost their lives in the horrific shooting rampage that occurred there today. I was shocked and saddened to hear the news this morning and it is truly difficult to comprehend the magnitude of this tragedy. My research paper on the wave of Chinese…
Matterhorn Peak
Well, class basically went till 3 pm this afternoon making for a very long Friday. It was rough at the end – I’m not sure how much I retained in the last hour of securities regulation. We were learning something about scienter, Ann Taylor, blue socks, and fashion faux paux… Exercise: I did the Oak…
Reading
Kind of busy today with an oppressive amount of reading to get through. I’m tired already, but there is unfortunately more to read. Otherwise, the draft of my research paper on Chinese Solar IPO’s in the United States is complete, with introduction and conclusion. Now, I need to simply edit and make sure there is…
Dinner and Movie Night
The Stanford Law and Business Society dinner and movie night was a success. We had about 40 people show and everyone seemed to enjoy the Thai food from Thaiphoon Restaurant and the film, “Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room.” I must admit, it’s tough to go wrong with Thaiphoon, the best Thai available in…
High Sierra
While I visited the “valley” at Yosemite and the big trees in Sequoia Park, I have never climbed the high Sierra. By working in Palo Alto this summer, I hope to change this. I plan on heading into the mountains on the weekends to explore the range. I’ve been reading up on the opportunities and…
