    @maliboo - Yep I think so, kasi everytime na nag-rreply sa akin, lagi nilang sinasabi na, 'they're aware of my commencement date.. at kahit nung nagpa-extend ako.. C cookie18 din ang basehan ko at sana ganun din kahit di sila magreply basta sa anjan na si grant ok na ako... sana nga di ako muna ako nag-give up ng job ko sa singapore, para di ako ma-bored dito :(
    but anyway, at least i spent time with my family while waiting pero di ko naman akalain ganito pala kahirap mag-antay, samatanlang nung nag-apply ako ng AU tourist visa sa singapore, nagpasa lang ako ng papeles without any proof of funds at pinaantay ang ako ng 10working days, ayun pick up na lang ng grant visa...

    @tenseako yup grabe ang anxiety pero read kalang sa mga experience ng mga members dito na na grant 3 days before nang klase. nakayanan din. there's always a way through any situation ika nga ma'am. ako nga grabe din ang anxiety ko kasi i am bringing my wife and 2-year old kid, no place to stay yet, our "kakilala" is on vacation pa. So pupunta kami dun with nothing but guts! Sana the glory will follow! hehe.

    Ayoko rin mag sobrang therapeutic sa comments ko kasi baka mag expect din kayo ng sobra. Hehe. Expect the worse, and hope for the best lang and do what you can mentality. If all else fails, exercise nalang para malimutan ang prob. LOL

SANA DUMATING NA! buti nga kasama mo wife mo at baby may pampalakas ng loob :D
    thanks! stressed din ako sa gastusin, pasalamat ako sa family sponsors ko. anyway if everything falls into its proper place a few years from now mababawi din naman ang gastos eh. hehe.hindi nga ako ganun ka strong as you might think. nakakadepress din nung nag hihintay kami nang medicals. its a good thing natanggap na, then hindi na humingi nang health undertaking, so if dumating man on time or not, approved or denied(which is highly unlikely, not because marami akong pera but because umabot na dito application ko. :D ), OK na sa akin. Tutal nalaman ko na wala akong Hepa or HIV. LOL. Mahirap din kung part time gigolo trabaho mo eh. Joke lang!!! Knowing healthy tayo to wait for another 7 months is something to be thankful about.
