Have this plan together with a friend to get a job overseas when i finish my phd. UK and Canada are our top-picks :) since it should be easier to adapt into an english-speaking country
well she'll want to go a year ahead of me since she's already working now and her contract ends end of this year.
i've been wanting to finish my phd ASAP but having this plan/vision/dream makes me want to finish even faster. and besides that, is for my grandma.

she's been saying tht she wants to see me graduate. in almost every phone conversations i had with her since i started my phd.
but in our last phone conversation, she added that she also wants to see all of us grandchildren get married. T_T and i'm her youngest grandchild. i am worried that i'm going to disappoint her.
*touchwood! she's going to be able to see that herself!

she's turning 89 this year. she's still healthy and all, but you know, anything can happen to anyone at any age, not to say she's 89.
i even had this naive thought that, so what if i don't get married soon then she'll stay on to wait for her wish which means i can keep her for longer?
