Well...it has been a very very long time since the last time i updated my blog...been very very very busy with admin work, teaching, marking of papers, new house (thank you Ethen for your help in cleaning up the house for me)...ah welll....good news...my first application for an external research grant is successful...i got four hundred thousand yen from the Sumitomo Foundation for research on Japanese lit in English (about fifteen thousand ringgit malaysia)...this should be a good encouragement for me to look for more grants....thanks edwin for being my co-researcher and for your support all these years....
