My advisor looked disappointed after my saying I haven't been working on my thesis since last January. Despite of his usual high expectation towards students and difficult character, I didn't have any lame excuse this time. He actually reminded me to feel guilty. I felt shame on my laziness, incapability, immaturity. However, I also felt anger because he depicted me as hopeless snob who only clings to the admission results from USA. The only way to get over this unpleasant feeling is to show him the real achievements. Better late than never.

Hi, Rene!
The reason why people seek for higher learning is to prove they worth. Worth is something that you can't give to others unless you ask for it..
Just do a good turn daily!
Thanks,
