11 years ago, I said that I wanted to be a lawyer. 8 years ago, I had dreams of being a public defender. 5 years ago, I knew for sure I wanted to work in criminal law. 1 year ago, I shifted my focus to working in prosecutions as legal aid are not getting funded and have no positions. Today, my dream was realised! I got a job with our State's Criminal Prosecutions Department.

Shoutout to Laxation/The X who helped me behind the scenes with my resume and cover letter as well as giving great advice. I'm still in shock.

I did nothing really. Just a 0.5% of the total package, if that.

I pity the State Criminal Prosecutions Department. It's a sad day for justice.

Found out today that my printing apprenticeship is being fast-tracked. So instead of being a tradesman on the 20th of October, it'll be on the 30th of June.

Being a 4 year apprentice as opposed to a competency based one, this is a huge relief considering I thought I had to make up for some lost time.

These are good to hear.

I'm now also doing video ads aside from Flash ads! ...only when there's nobody left to do it.
