But, next week Sunday, I will fly back to Newcastle. Why?
My viva will be on the 2nd of March!
Ya Allah, Ya Rabbi..I am so nervous. At the moment, I am waiting for a journal to be published. My first PhD publication. I am praying that it will be accepted, InsyaAllah.
If this happen, I will be more confident to face my viva. Otherwise, hmm..rasa susah hati la jugak..
Anyhow, I arrived on 16th January. Tapi my family didn't know pun..mmg plan nak surprise..Mr.PIC je yang tahu. Tapi I pity him la jugak as he had to try to avoid answering my mom's question on when will I be coming home. I told my mom I'll be back on the 20th mcm tu..so, kiranya mmg nak suprisekan dia la.
Bila masuk rumah, my mom was in the kitchen. I just said hi..well, she was surprised tapi takdela drama mcm 'Oh anakku..kau sudah pulang nak..'..hehehe..nah, she is not like that I guess..but I knew she was really surprise and to see me.
Hmm..aha, we finally bought a house..well, a condominium which is near mom's house. Nak beli landed house that is near our work place and easy to access any highway, mmg susah la nak dapat yg within our budget..so, this condo is very convenient. Sekarang tgh tunggu loan approval..nanti baru la boleh sign S&P..hopefully boleh dapat kunci by then..ingat nak renovate sikit.
Aha, another big news is that, my mom and my aunt are coming with me to UK. At first, masa my mom tanya whether she could come with me, I hesitated and said I need to focus la mak..I was just afraid that I couldn't entertain her..so, I suggested that she asked my aunt to come as well..at least ada kawan..ye la, dua2 dah pencen..she agreed and my aunt pun setuju. It was stressful to arrange plans for them. Nak pegi London and Paris as well..tapi I am not going la..ye la, after my viva..I will be doing my corrections pulak..hopefully tak banyak la corrections kan..*nervous mode on*...kat London and Paris, my sister in Dublin pulak will take over..lama my mom tak jumpa my sister ni..dah 2 years dah..so, it will be great to meet her as well.
Makan? I have fulfilled most of my cravings. My weight is increasing as I am typing this entry. Asyik makan jek. Haihh..
I haven't started my revision pun lagi. Will try to read my thesis again by next week. Must brush up on my basics as well. Normally, during viva, mmg kena strengthen your basics.
Alright then, till the next entry..which I am not sure when..take care and wish me luck!
