It's four day before my birth day. Still waiting for the news. About one week ago I got an information saying that two schools rejected my application. University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign and University of Kansas. There are three other schools, I hope I still can make it to Purdue. Or UMass at Amherst. This waiting period is killing me. I lost the interest to do anything, even my long debt, like research. Do I only making excuses? I think I do. Not to mention the seminar that seems going nowhere.
Hoping to get an acceptance letter for my upcoming bithday. I am going to be 30. Kim Sam Soon spend hers with Sam Shik... Who will I spend it with?
About 2 weeks from now there will be an election. The offices will be closed like 4 days. Some of my friends were asking if I would come home, but I don't think I will if I do't get any information about the school. I reall y hope I would have an acceptance letter by then.

Extension of Application Deadline: Applications and supplemental material for Fall 2009 admission will be accepted until March 16, 2009. >>> The announcement in the school website which makes me feels more restless. When the deadline is extended, it means that the announcement of admission will also be extended.
Waiting is the job I hate most, because when we are waiting for something, we can not focus on the task at hand. This is what happening to me right at this moment. I am waiting for the announcement of my school admittance. I hope I will get good news by my 30th birthday.
Gosh... malesnya kerja :(

It's the 13th day of 2009. A lot of thing remains uncertain. Thanks to my Fulbright candidacy, I manage to extend my contract to April 30th. Is it good news? I don't know. My journey to PhD is the same thing. I hope I will get through all the process in time and I will be in the states around this time of year in 2010.
I am the oldest of the three. I have two younger brother, aged 26 years old and 19 years old. Since I am the only girl among the three, most of the time it feels like I am the youngest. But lately, I do feel like I am the oldest. Being the oldest, there is some sort of tendency that my younger siblings will look up to me. What I've become will affect their being. I said before that lately I feel like I am the oldest. It is because my youngest brother is look up to me now. It happens since I started working in ITB. I t gave some sort of pressure to me, and I hate pressures. He was depressed when I told him that my contract will not be extended. Now with me going through these entire path to PhD, he put his hope and with on my shoulder again. I hope I can fulfil his hope and wish, so I will not disappoint him.
…. I was supposed to take GRE test next Thursday, but I haven't received any confirmation yet. This also makes me nervous. Whatever happens, I hope it's for my own goodness.
