After I graduated at bachelor’s
degree in Law, I continue to study Law at The Thai bar under the royal
patronage.
The Thai bar is law
school for law student who graduated at bachelor’s degree in Law from every university
and want to be judge, prosecutor or senior legal government official in the
future.
Admitted to the bar
is important qualification that candidate to be that position must have.
The subjects Bar’s
student have to study are the subjects that have been ever studied at bachelor’s
degree BUT It’s harder because law student take 4 years to study at bachelor’s
degree but the curriculum of the bar
take only 1 year so bar’s student have to be able to remember and understand a
lot of legal substance.
Moreover, bar’s
student have to study lots of model supreme court judgment for using to support
legal learning as well.
The Thai Bar's class room
Studying the bar in
Thailand, The Thai bar not force bar’s student attend in class. Student can
choose the way to study.
Some student likes to
attend a class.
Some student likes to study by themselves such
as studying from law book a lot.
The bar’s student can
reserve the lecture book that the substance in the lecture book is all copied
from the lecturer’s word in class.
The lecture book will
be released every week. Student who reserve will get a book per a week. All of
them have 16 books.
Attending in class at The Thai bar every
student have to wear white long sleeved shirt and Men have to wear black long
trousers and Women have to wear black skirt ( long - cover knee)
There are 4 big legal
field that bar’s student have to pass an exam such as
1. Civil and Commercial Law
2. Criminal law
3. Law of Civil Procudure
4. Law of Criminal Procudure
First
term is for Civil and Commercial Law and Criminal law
Second
term is for Law of Civil Procudure and Law of Criminal Procudure
If
fail one of all or all of them , have to take an exam again next year for the
field you fail until pass all of them.
When
pass all of them, Bar’s student have to take oral examination with lecturer
after that will be able to admit to the bar.
For
me actually I don’t have a goal that to be judge or prosecutor. I just want to
be legal advisor and work for private law firm. I study here because I want to
review my knowledge of law again.
I
think it’s fun to study here because most of lecturers here are senior judge.
They have many experience to share student in class over and above the
substance.
I
can meet many law students from other university.
In Thailand, There
are a lot of Japanese companies. Thais who can speak Japanese will get many
opportunities to work in Japanese companies with HIGH SALARY.
Most of them work as
Interpreter , Translator , Sale assistant or Secretary.
Generally New
Graduated officer will earn about 15,000-20,000 Bath. But, Almost of New
Graduated officer who can speak Japanese and work for Japanese company will
earn more than 30,000 Bath especially Japanese Interpreter.
I think It cause there
are few Thais who can speak Japanese well while Japanese company in Thailand
demand them highly.
I have been studying
Japanese seriously for 1 year because I’m interested in Japanese culture and I
want to go there one day.
When I’m attending in
Japanese class I feel VERY HAPPY and happier than studying Law that I study as
majority in bachelor‘s degree.
At first, In Beginner
Japanese class there are a lot of students but getting less later because
Japanese is the hard Language
Student who want to
study Japanese have to try hard.
When I’m free, I
usually go to cinema because I love watching movie.
Thai cinema
I’ve heard about
watching movie at cinema in USA that not to need to book a seat. Only buy ticket
then, walk into the theatre. You can sit any seat that you want to sit. But in
Thailand,need to book a seat while you’re buying a ticket at Box
office.
Thai Box office
If you come to buy a
ticket first, you will get more a chance to choose the best seat that you want
to sit. You can choose by watching from the monitor at Box office. The officer
will show it to you while you ‘re buying the ticket. And then you have to sit
the seat in the following ticket’s number.
Thai movie's ticket
You can’t take food
and beverage, you buy the outside, in the theatre. But be able to take the food
and beverage of snack bar in the theatre.
Snack bar
The cost of food and beverage
of snack bar is much more expensive than ordinarily cost. However, the audience
still buy them because The popcorn here are very delicious and there are 4 flavor
such as caramel , Salty , Bar B Q and
Cheese.
These day I try hard to practice my English because It’s
very important to find a job. I’m going to find a job next week. Every company
I want to apply has step of interview a job that interviewer have to speak
English while interviewing .
So I
spend time a lot for practicing English. Today I want to show the tools I use
for practicing my English
First ,
I have a problem about listening in English so I need to listen to anything in
English a lot such as Watching American
series without subtitles and listen to English news via PODCAST.
PODCAST is free and easy to use for practicing English
listening. There are a lot of interesting program for example News, fairy tales
and conversation.
The American series I’m watching now is Once upon a time.
It’s very fun. I can see a lot of characters from fairy tales in this series.
Next, For practicing English conversation I use ‘Follow me’
From BBC . There are 4 books . It’s a good choices because These are
interesting. There are many different situation. I can download the audio for practicing
together with these books for free. Moreover there are Videos that I can watch
from YOUTUBE.
Last, I need to practice English Grammar too. I read ‘Essential
Grammar in Use’ and ‘English Grammar in
Use’ from Cambridge. I don’t feel bored when I read them.
I will try and try the best for English because moreover it’s
useful for working, I’d also like to study master degree in USA .
Thailand’s transportation is quite bad. Most people in
Thailand choose their personal cars to go anywhere because Thailand’s public transportation
isn’t enough.
The big
problem of Bangkok, The capital of Thailand, is traffic jam. When most people drive a car and the road isn’t enough. Surely you will be stuck in
traffic for a long time especially during the rush hour on the road in the city
centre. For only 1 kilometer you may have to spend 30 minutes on some
roads.
Every morning I have a class on Sukhumwit road, the
business centre of Bangkok. I have to drive pass SATHON and SILOM where
there are a lot of offices and schools. The traffic is really bad. Every time I’m
on the way to school, I’m usually jealous of the people who can go anywhere by BTS,
The railway of Thailand, Because It’s fast to go anywhere in the city centre. I
want to go school by BTS but my house is in the suburb. From my house to the
nearest BTS station I have to spend 2 hours, during the rush hour .That makes me
crazy.
I wish
Thailand would develop Public transportation soon. I don’t want to
lose much time on the road anymore.
For
tourist who wants to travel in Bangkok. I think going by The BTS is a good
choice to go anywhere in Bangkok. However, if you need to go by car, Please
avoid going in the rush hour.
The
rush hour in Bangkok is Monday to Friday. 7.00 am – 9.am and 4.00 pm - 6 pm
Hello World! My name
is Fai . I’m a Thai girl ,23 years old. I’ve just graduated in a bachelor’s degree
in Law from Thammasat University. And now I’m unemployed hahaha. I haven’t
started to find a job yet.
I’m taking a Japanese
course and then I’m going to finish this course on May 20th. After
that, I will find a job.
The job that I want
to work is to be a Legal officer and

think It may be hard to find a job.However, I will try the best.
Besides Japanese that
I’m studying, I’m also practicing English. That’s why I want to make this blog

English by writing on social network because I want to share story about my
life to the world too. Even I’m just an ordinary girl.
