I was able to get my business cards fixed in time for the conference, although I didn't end up handing them out to any of the attendees. However, I did give a few cards to friends later. The conference itself was interesting, although I was pretty tired by the end of the day.
After the conference, I attended Chrissie's birthday party, which consisted of mini golf and a meal.
Things have otherwise been relatively slow, although I am planning a trip to Disneyland this weekend.

SNAFUs are No Fun
My business cards arrived today. Unfortunately, Staples messed the cards up; they currently include the false statement that I am a "memner" of the California Bar. I didn't notice the mistake until I was in the car. When I saw the typo, I rushed back to the store, and, because I was frustrated, I locked my keys in the car.
Fortunately, my mom was able to find a spare set of keys, and Staples agreed to reorder the cards for me. I am disappointed that the cards won't arrive in time for Friday's conference. Luckily, it is easy enough to change an "n" into a "b" without it being too obvious, so I can take the old cards without worrying about making a bad impression because of the typo.

Can't Believe It's September
Given the heat and the lack of a school structure, it doesn't feel like it's already September.
A few things have happened since I last wrote. I took the New York and New Jersey Bar Exams between July 25th and July 27th. The first two days of the exams took place in Albany, while the third day of the exam took place in Secaucus, a New Jersey suburb which is across the river from New York. The first day's exam consisted of five New York essays, 50 New York multiple choice questions, and a Multistate performance test. The second day consisted of 200 multiple choice questions dealing with general legal principles; this portion of the exam is graded in both states. The final day was comprised of seven New Jersey essays. I'm glad that I made the effort to take the exams, although I'm also glad that I won't have to worry as much about the outcome of these exams as I did for the California one; my career won't be "on hold" if I don't pass.
