I survived my 1st ever own trial!

For the 1st time ever, I did the entire thing, from opening, to cross examination, re-examination, to submissions all by myself. *looks smug* Especially when the other side's witness suddenly threw in something unexpected. Lol. On hindsight though, I should trust myself more next trial. Now for the judgment next week..

On another note, I finally realised how wrong one can be if you simply just take whatever that's written in papers wholesale. So, here's me debunking some mistaken belief of mine with regards to our all white MPS:

(1) MPs do not conduct the MPS. They don't even necessary have to be there, and you may not necessary run into them. I think I must have been spoilt by virtue of my ward. I've always thought your MP would at least be there and have a table for his meet the people's session!

(2) The assistants at the MPS are not necessary professional. Well, unless you tell me that the following constitutes professionalism: (1) shaking his legs so vigorously like he had ants munching at his balls; (2) complimenting people on how nice their beard looks; (3) asking dumb questions about people's complexion.. Did I mention they name-drop too? *yawnz*

That, in essence was the main impression that I took out from one of such sessions. Impressed? Very, by the opposition MPs in my ward (and neighbouring constituency). If this is the sort of standard you get, I'll say, pay me the S$15,000.00 and I'll do a better job.. *yawn*
