good grief!
While applying for this Japan grant i was thinking that me-not-winning-it might be the lamest thing about the whole event. Well i was wrong. In fact i’ve won! You can congratulate me, i was chosen by Hokkaido University out of all participants. Congrats, congrats.
And you can also feel sorry for me cause i’m not going anywhere.
I got an answer that said: Yes, you get the grant, but due to the fact that there are way too many participants this year we will only pay for your education. But we can’t provide you with a scholarship (= 80.000 yen per month = $700 per month = $10.000 per year), so suck it, bitch.
Actually, it didn’t say ‘suck it, bitch’, I just added it. Anyway.
This scholarship makes up the approximate cost of living in Japan, so students can’t do without it. And i do realize that $10.000 per year is not such a big sum for studying in such an expensive [and awesome] country, but i still don’t have the money. I wish i had, but i just don’t.
That’s the first time i’ve won smth as serious as this grant, i just can’t believe the whole thing turned out to be so lame.
Blaa.
It's just all wrong, you can't say here's a grant and the other day say oops, we messed up, no more grant.
I am disappointed. Will go and make some tea. And it's also raining cats and dogs outside. It doesn't make me fell better either.
