Today was a good day at work albeit quite tiring as I stayed up late yesterday to prepare for a meeting. Yesterday reminded me that I am pretty much an adrenaline junkie. Despite the physical limitations of tiredness and the pain I've been suffering, I overcame those with sheer hyperness. I was so hyper it got to the point that my colleagues were all annoyed as to why I was so hyper and cheerful when the whole office was stressed out and the tension was so thick because of a new case which had a lot of issues to be discussed.

I find myself enjoying the challenge at my current firm. The long hours and mental stress aside, I actually relish the challenges that I have to face every day because it pushes me to better myself and improve my knowledge of the law. I am exposed to so many new areas of the law that I learn new and exciting things in a short space of time.

I haven't even been here for a year but I feel like I've gained at least two year's worth of knowledge if I had practiced in a normal firm.

Anyway, my office asked me to plan ahead my annual leaves this year. It is the office policy to make sure that the lawyers' leaves do not clash. No two lawyers from the same department are allowed to take leave at the same time. So I sat down to plan my leave for the year. I can say I'm very excited for what is in store for me in 2011 and god-willing if everything goes to plan, it'll be a dream come true.

Maybe I will share what we have planned for this year later.

Till the next post! :)
