Well, they say time flies when you are having fun. It also flies when you only have 12 minutes to complete an advocacy assessment!
I had mine last week and left feeling quite pleased. I was in front of the "judge" quite early on, not sure if that was to my advantage or not.The thing I love most about giving submissions is the persuasive argument. The advocate needs to convince the judge that their way of thinking is best considering the matter at hand. I hope the French Artist got his interim payment! Results are out in the summer, so I will wait and see what happens.
Now what to do. Seems like my life is finally catching up with me and I am now really busy at work. I have a ton of work to complete and cases to prepare on behalf of the LA that I spend a disproportionate amount of time frequenting and moaning about. I was made to feel slightly guilty and spoilt last week, when, moaning about my job the person concerned said "well at least you have a job innit" This is true.
Life at work is weird. Politricks aside, I work in an environment that lends itself to big fat egos, slippery tongues up bums and one-upmanship. You'd think I was already working in a corporate law firm, but I am not. I work for a local authority. My department is going through a restructure at the moment and it will be interesting to see if those who have had to re-apply for their own job get it. Thankfully I am not one of those people. I am hoping one gets the job and the other doesn't, for the sake of equilibrium!
What does one do with themselves now that college is over? I am going to try and get the bf and I away somewhere away from Politicians and their expenses Big Bruv crap, Oyster payasyougo, BOB 'effing Crow (greedy b'stard) and not having to think about an upcoming assessment or hand in exercise. BTW, the bf supports Man U and they are selling Rio (sexy legs) Ferdinand to some other team and he will be paid £200+K a WEEK. I said a WEEK, yes that's right a WEEK! How many magistrates will I have to attend to earn that and how many police cells will I have to trawl to earn that?
A project I will be working on will be the "how the hell can you afford fees and how you gonna pay gurl" This will be a project that will involve brainstorming and prioritising. Where is the job and who will pay me the most. Heels, ironed shirt and barrister suit to the ready!
It transpires that throughout the year, at any time when I doubted myself it was not warranted. I am amazed at how much knowledge I now have and how imperative passing the GDL was. One has to know Contract and Tort. Without these as a base level, one will certainly struggle.
Thankfully, I will now have a few months to chill, earn some extra money to pay BPP as well as apply for OLPAS, redecorate my home, become a champion online seller of goods as well as be the perfect partner and homemaker!
Somehow, I doubt my summer will really be like this.
Until the next time.
