Days in Bath series: And the journey begins!

I got a good news today and it makes me recall the memories of this time last year. I was wandering around Bath center in an early Sunday morning. The street was all empty and not a single store opened. I arrived that early in Bath just to get two things done: visit the Roman Baths & visit the University of Bath. But well, I do not have to do that anymore because very soon, I will come back to be a poor student: studying during daytime to graduate with flying colours and working hard during nighttime to earn more money to visit my beloved friends studying all over in Europe.

Just last week, I told my soulmate that Chevening application was opened again (I failed right in the 1st round FYI) and it flashed back hundreds of memories of a year ago. A year in a blink of an eye, since the day that my bae encouraged me: "Let's aim for Chevening, bae!" A year in which I spent 6 consecutive months being neck-deep in proposals, pitching, annual plannings at work, go teaching in the evening, then working on my applications at night (I had to finish a total of 10 essays - an overwhelm for someone who is terrible at essay writing like me) and working freelance when the clock was past mid night to save money for my Master degree. I tried all of this just to follow with the plan that I had set for myself. A year full of hard works, efforts, tears, anxieties, sorrows, tiredness and.....obsessions.

Now that I think of it, I have no ideas how was it possible for me to do all those things and surpass my own limitation. But setting that asides, I have seen myself tremendously grow in so many terms, from mindset, lifestyle, decision making to relationship appreciation.

Therefore, this album is dedicated for all of my lessons and experiences on the journey to Bath and for the upcoming beautiful memories there. But that's it for today ;) When I have time, I will share more in details. I will save the left energy of the day to celebrate this new journey because after so many hardships and obstacles (yeah, a lot of them :(( ) I have finally excellently finished the first chapter of the plan.

So and stay tuned for more stories everyone….Cheers!
