I'm Rocking the Boat

I haven't written anything since my last travel post from last year. I wish I could give a good excuse for the long hiatus, but there isn't any. It's funny because in one of my earlier posts, I promised to regularly update this blog which I obviously failed to do. So this time, I will no longer toss  promises of frequent updates. Instead, I'm just going to visit and write in this space whenever I feel like it. No pressure.

So what have I been up to?

Well, I'm still stuck in my monotonous and ridiculously boring job of more than three years. I've tried applying to several companies but I still ended up staying here. It was either the pay was not enough or the job they're offering was  different from the one they posted online. It goes to show that I still haven't reached rock bottom in my career dilemma. My desperation wasn't enough to give up a stable job and a very generous salary.

So what did I do about the "Oh my God, please don't make me do this  anymore" problem I have with work? I just had a change in perspective. I realized that instead of whining about how I became a machine because of the job routine, I had to do something that will make me want to not leave the company. Therefore, I decided to go to Law School. Crazy right? But here's the thing,  with this, I've hit two birds with one stone. First, is fulfilling my childhood dream of becoming a lawyer and second is staying with the company for the next five years to finance my studies. 

I've already  thought about the consequences of this plan. I'm very aware that studying while working is difficult. How much more if it's Law school and a job you hate? Surely, a complete recipe for disaster! But this is something I'm willing to take a chance on and I'm already very excited about the future, which, to be honest, is one thing I've long been worried about. So that's a good thing I guess. I've finally rocked the boat and now life is starting to get exciting again.

Last Monday I just had my medical examination. A few more weeks and I'll seal it with the enrollment. Ah, I can't wait to be a student again!

P.S Passing the admission test wasn't easy. The exam totally annihilated my poor brain cells.
