This is How My Taiwan Adventures End [period]

I ain't no celebrity. But I don’t know why, I found that quite a lot of people are currently interested (if I couldn’t say ‘curious’) about my situation. The more I want to keep it low, the more curious they are. I guess I have to be thankful for this, because it means many people are concern about me. 
        Since I’m not comfortable repeating my story over and over again to the different people, I think writing this sort of ‘press release’ is a perfect idea. Okay, here it is.
        It is started with these ‘questionable questions’ (*what a sentence XD!): Bunga has headed back to Taiwan to conduct her research, right? She has got a new advisor, hasn't she? She even has a supervisor, hasn’t she? She was actually planned to conduct a research in Shanghai because the company she’s been tailing with arranged so, wasn’t it? Hence, why her last Facebook status is ‘Jin Air’ (~indicating she’s in the airport and ready to kick herself out of Taiwan)? Weird. Ridiculously weird!

--break-off---

It is true that I have headed back to Taiwan since July 24. But after a week or so, I was 'struck by a lightning'. How? Why? Does it literally mean lightning strikes you =p? The thing is my supervisor suddenly said she has resigned from the company that planned to support my research funding. She simply texted/e-mailed me that ‘overly fantastic’ news. So, that’s it. What about my new advisor? He merely said, “Oh well…you have to help yourself”. Bloody h*ll! Do you still believe that Taiwanese are nice? Haha~you decide! I won't say a word =p

Hence, without financial support from anyone; not company, university, or institution, I couldn’t manage to conduct my research. Because my new advisor also said that he currently has no research grant to support my thesis, I’ve no choice except going home to Indonesia. Seems doesn’t make any sense? Hehe, I think so too. But that's how it happens in Taiwan. In NCYU. In Dept. of Food Science. But you know, since I’ve been continuously exposed to a series of unfortunate events, I’m kinda ‘feel fine’ or rather ‘numb’ after received that ‘surprise’. My pain and sad thresholds are definitely arose (to the top). 
        One thing for sure is instead of feeling miserable, I feel grateful. I really do :). Moreover, this thing happened during Ramadan, the holy month. I believe that Allah has planned something for me; something beyond beautiful. I have no reason to feel insecure or miserable. 

So well, yeah...since I don’t want to waste more time (*I'd 'wasted' 2 years, actually), I need to re-arrange my future/study plan. As for now, my father and aunt have figured out a way. I think their plan is the best thing I’ve ever heard. For that plan to come up, I have to thank my cousin who happened to have the same ‘bitter’ experience as mine. He was studied in UNSW and failed to graduate, -somehow. So, my father and aunt's idea is having my NCYU’s credits to be transferred to another university in Indonesia; just like my cousin did. Because I’ve fulfilled NCYU's core and elective courses for master's degree (except thesis; 6 credits), I’ll have that 6 credits to be finished in one of the universities in Indonesia. Well, something like that. 

All in all, here I am...still working to fix this thing. Wish me luck~ :)!
