The distance between this update and the previous one (November, 5^th) is a good tip on how things have become faster recently (and that, even if I'll add the Friday 10^th note soon). For, our Irish colleague has left and the job he was doing is now upon me. Nothing new about that but we all notice that finance is getting very very active these days. So, clients are back on projects and, although it is very interesting, it is really time-consuming. On top of that, our sales are either new or a bit inactive and you understand how busy we can be doing account management, projects and pre-sales. Fortunately, this last part is well renumerated. My next air ticket will be paid with this commercial referrals. Quite nice, no?

Anyway, this week of work ended at 21h30 on... Saturday. After a quite bad test session. Nothing bad about it (especially the overtime payment and the restaurant after -see previous post-) but this Saturday just arrived on a week of 60h of work. On Friday night, I was almost wondering how my place looked like during daytime... Fortunately, holidays are in one month. "Just" need to get a re-entry permit (that should cost me 6,000‰~ and some wasted hours at •iì. Anyway, until that glorious day of rest, a couple of projects (3 or 4, actually) needs to be finished and, in two weeks (already), I'll take my Japanese examination... Examination that I haven't started to study... Will my first year in Japan be enough to pass? I doubt it. Will I have some time to work next week-end? I also doubt it (new tests in sight)... Anyway, we'll see. At least, it will give some chance to see how “Œ‘å looks like! (Does anybody sit for the exam there?)
