8/31、財団の研究費の申請書の締切が迫っていた。この日、名鉄の人身事故に合い、アピタ岩倉で最終調整。閉店22:00にWifiで提出した。情報系の財団で採択率は15%ほど。

それが日本への郵便で、採択通知が届いたとのこと。ありがとうございます。これで研究が続けられます。単純に嬉しいです。

On August 31st, I was racing against the grant application deadline. A railway accident on the Meitetsu line disrupted my plans. I made my final revisions at APITA Iwakura mall, submitting via WiFi just before their 10 PM closing. The IT research foundation has a 15% acceptance rate.

Then came the surprise – an acceptance letter arrived by mail in Japan. This grant allows me to continue my research. I’m simply happy.
