So it's been a short while since my last submission, things have been interesting as of late, unfortunately not necessarily in the good way.

On an academic level, the course is certainly picking up, not just with my case in Law Clinic, I have two assignments due for the period over the next month, not to mention a formative on top of that, three assignments due within this month's window, whilst also supporting the Law Clinic. As if my week wasn't busy enough, I've decided to once again submit an application to participate in the negotiation competition, having made it to the Semi Finals this recent year, the aim is to take it all the way this year, but we will have to see how well it goes, particularly with the balancing of everything.

On the one hand, I'm overwhelmed, I'm drained on the daily and I've recently started to slip back into the habit of not wanting to get up in the mornings. On the other, whilst occupied, it keeps my mind busy, it's as they say, silence is loud, so whilst I'm busy, it's quieter to say the least.

I decided late last night to shower to help myself sleep better, or an attempt at it, subsequently realising I need to eat more, I know I don't eat much anyway, namely due to my mental state at the moment, but I've lost a considerable amount of weight. My loungewear is now too big around the waist, some of my pairs of jeans the same, I feel like my body is burning up everything it has in it, but we will continue as I am, because I'm still alive and that is something I'm thankful for.

I'll release another entry next week, I have a reading week so it's a lot of free time to myself so I look forward to that (not).

But in the meanwhile, I wish you all the best weekend ahead of you and I hope things are going well for you all.
