Week # 2 Journal Entry

Being ready at my placement means being prepared for all the work that is thrown at you as well as being organized in a professional manner. This placement was what I hoped it would be, even though I don't get to argue with the judge and all that fun stuff, I get to sit in on the cases and see what they do and the steps and preparation they need to win their cases. The highlight of my week I would have to say was when I interviewed Crown Attorney, Richard Garwood Jones. Talking to him gave me more of a push in the direction of becoming a Crown Attorney/prosecutor. Watching him in court that day was like inspiration and now I know for a fact that if I do get in the field of criminal law, then a prosecutor is who I would want to be. Situations that made me feel good is when I get someting done with time to review everything and make sure that I did everything right. And the feeling that I didn't mess anything up makes me feel a lot better. Each day I learn something new about being a lawyer, and I also find something that pushes me to want to fulfill my dream. And each day I feel like I'm getting closer. I'm really enjoying it here, I hope it didn't have a time spand on it.
