Mock Trial :)
Through all the extra curriicular things I djo at school, mock trial is one of those things this year. I enjoyed it so much. This may have nothing to do with my improvements exactly, but I figured it was somethign worth mentioning.
So, our school is brand new, and we don’t have any seniors at the moment. Our class is the oldest class on campus, and we’ll be the first graduating class of our school. It’s so exciting!
And for our mock trial team, it has been our second year of competition. We worked hard, and stuck together no matter what happened. We quickly became a mock trial family, and know we can count on each other for practically anything. For our second year, we were able to beat the 9 year winning high school, and that easily led us to winning county. So, we were Fresno County champions. That was quite an accomplishment, and everyone was very impressed. That definitely wasn’t the end; we went to San Jose on March 19-March 21 for the state final competition. The competition there was super competitive, and definitely something we weren’t sued to, but we gave it our all. And not once did we ever give up! Overally, we ended up getting 16th palce out of 35 schools. So, it wasn’t too bad for being a new team and a new school. In the next year to come, we’ll definitely get better, and who knows what can happen from there! I’m proud to be on such a committed team.
I have definitely learned a lot from being on the mock trial team this year. I realized how quickly I was able to memorize things, write easily on paper, and large print easier and quicker. so, I learned things about myself and my ever changing vision through this experience. It has absolutely been worht th etime, effort, and what not.
Everyone on the team is special to me in a way, and glad they have been here for me all through my junior year. And I look forward to spending my senior year on the team as well!
