I am really enjoying my summer co-op with the SEC. There are a total of four legal interns (three from Northeastern) and an indeterminate number of college interns. I've been busy since my first day! The work is mostly securities regulation (no surprise there). Since everything we work on is top secret, I can't talk about what I am doing. I can say that I've done tons of research and writing, doc review, and some other prep stuff.

But what is nice about working and not being at school is having weekends free. So far I've been going to the movies every week (matinees because I am still a poor law student).

Last week when I went to see the Happening (which is NOT a recommend) I saw Chris Rock at the Loews Theatre in Boston. He was originally going to see the Incredible Hulk but missed the previews and was going to see the Happening. He was with two others. I thought he looked and talked a lot like Chris Rock but then I thought, why would he be here in Boston and without entourage.

It was only after the movie when my friend told me that the ushers were saying how it was Chris Rock!

Since I didn't (clearly) get an autograph for myself, no one else gets them either ...

Still there is my celebrity sighting for the week. Let's hope that this becomes a tradition and that Hollywood has come to Boston.
