It's such an honour that a renowned private university accepts my PhD course application. Unfortunately, due to some solid reasons, I have to reject the offer. Firstly, the tuition fee is beyond my personal budget as I have to support my aged parents who are retired and secondly my manager encourages me to enroll those courses which are fully sponsored by my company. 

Frankly speaking, English is not my strong language and I asked my aunt who is an English tuition teacher in Singapore to correct my email to the university. When I read through the email which has been fully corrected by my dear aunt, I was so amazed that her ability to write so well and fluent in English. I was wondering, when will I have the ability to write like her? I was a science student and language is a tool for me to convey messages. Generally, universities will not expect science students to write as a law student. However, there is still a standard for all the students regardless of their courses to have a good skill in writing English. 

There are so many things we may learn and of course we cannot learn everything. I believe everyone of us must have at least one talent. We may try our best to maximise it through our life journey. Thinking is one of my hobbies and that's why I love writing down all my thoughts.

The main point for today message is, we must be good at something and thus we do not have to jealous what other people has but we do not have. Learning is really interesting, so do not waste your time and keep on learning.
