The end of my internship

This week was my last week working as the Pace Women Justice Center. As usual the week flew by and Friday came faster than I expected...

I was so happy that my co-worker Melissa and I finished working with files. We arranged all the necessary files in file cabinets and left the center a bit more organized than the way it was when we first came. I mean all i can say is that this was just a great and rewarding experience. I didn't expect to have such great opportunity this summer. I enjoyed every aspect of the internship, from reading the client files, learning how to use time matters, going to court and sitting on cases, having a first hand experience in seeing a lawyer from the center represent a client, doing few here and there office works, meeting my co-workers, chatting with few of the lawyers at the center, and getting the chance to also talk to some law students. I couldn't have wished for anything better for this internship. I didn't really know what I was in for when I first started, but all I can say is it was a sad Friday. It's almost like I didn't want it to end, I will miss waking up on Monday knowing I have somewhere to go, I'll miss Natalie my boss. She was just such a great boss, hopefully all my future bosses are as nice as she was to me. :)

But it's over and it really helped me in deciding whether or not I wanted to continue with becoming a lawyer. I really think after college, I will continue into law school. I think my interest decreased because I wasn't really sure why I wanted to go to Law School in the first place, but I realized that it's really something I want to pursue and follow my career goal. I also thought about following other interests after College, but I rather go with Law school after I graduate and continue from there. Hopefully it all goes well for me in the future! :)

A great thanks to CSSP for getting me the internship. I honestly appreciate it! :)

Now I get to relax for two weeks before my fall semester begins....
