And the prize for the most wanky blog post title goes to...
Most of you will know about this already, but I felt it needed a blog post in order to really convince me that it happened (yeah, my logic is not really logical, I know).
Yesterday, as I walked down the street to get coffee, I was thinking, 'This is it. I'm not going to be able to continue at Cambridge. I don't have funding. I'm not going to get funding. I'll be back in Australia in a month.' I started making my back up plans.
I didn't check my email until 8pm. But when I did, I found not one, but TWO emails offering me funding. Put together, it's enough for me to do my PhD here! I was, as you can imagine, ecstatic.
It's funny what starts happening once you give up. I should give up more often...
