Tired. Undecided.

Recently, it's all been just work work work work work (haha got the joke?)
Yesterday I just finished off a 6 day work week(but actually only 38 hours of work LOL). Have today off and then it's back to work again tomorrow and over the weekend. I have very...atypical working weeks. I don't get the same "weekends" that everyone else does, making it infinitely harder to arrange appointments and meet up with friends to do some studying together.
Good news is that whatever I needed to complete by 2nd of May, I've completed and submitted. Not so good news is, I still have 4 3-hour practice papers to complete before the 8th of May. And still squeeze in some cramming on top of that. How? A miracle....
Ok, granted I do have a few days off work next week.
Work's actually been pretty alright, it's just the studying I'm starting to worry about, just because I'm supposed to memorise this reference book and more by October. I have no idea how it's going to happen. Nothing interesting in particular to share about work. But not particularly looking forward to another 5 days starting tomorrow.
A few days ago a high school friend posted in a chat group asking if anyone was going to the 5-year reunion. I said I wasn't sure yet even though I am free atm. It's in May, a few days after the graduation ceremony and a few days before the compulsory seminar. Actually in secret I just want to see who is going first. Yes, I'm that type of person. I went to that school for 2 years, the people I actually still keep in regular contact is pretty much zero. I talk to maybe 3-4 of them once in a long while and that's it. That school somehow doesn't mean as much to me as much as rv did, other than the fact that I graduated from it. Half the people going won't even know I was in the same year level, and it was a pretty small cohort lol. Plus charging $40/pax for a reunion that we are invited to, it better be a pretty darn good dinner LOL. It's not even in a restaurant, it's in a hall. In the school. I don't know..we'll see who ends up going, and then I'll decide if I'm going or not.

Haha, it seems like every post begins with 'it's been a while'.
I guess it's way different from how in the past something interesting happened every so often and I could blog about it..back to the sec/high school days. Maybe because now things are not very interesting anymore? I mean, it's now pretty much work, home, study, chill. It's just hard to actively find something to blog about because I literally..don't do anything interesting on my days off, and if anything interesting happens at work, it's not exactly the most ethical thing to share or complain about.
Anyway, I just signed up for the first written exam which is in May..on a Sunday, bright and early - starts at 9am but have to be there at 8.15am. So for now till then, it's cram cram cram. May is going to be a super busy month it seems. I have 2 assignments due on the 2nd, graduation ceremony on the 24th, exam in between that, seminar at the end of May. It seems like I'll never get any peace LOL. I better study like crazy so I pass the exam on the first round, if not it's almost $600 down the drain D:
I went out to get some documents bound today so it would be easier to flip. It was so dumb of me because it's a 600+ page document and they had to come up with a new version last month and I already printed the previous edition. Had to print the whole thing over again. The first time I printed it, it was halfway through the index when the printer ran out of ink and I had to run out to buy toner. I've spent so much money just on printing the law and buying adhesive tabs and the references itself. This is working out to be a lot more expensive than anticipated...
Thankfully the one thing that has been good so far is the weather. We're heading toward winter soon but it's still 25 degrees with blue skies and sunny days. What not to be thankful for?
