Reconsidering my future plans

Roundups Sep 10, 2022

Went to the gym.
Further discuss and think about my future plans.
Had dinner with college friends.

So I originally planned to finish my military services after coming back from Japan, then do my masters in America if everything went well. However, at the time I didn't know that Japan's semester ends at Febuary. This means that I would have to finish my 4-month military service in March to July, a 5-month time frame.

In addition to that, I also don't have GRE scores and my TOEFL has also expired. Moreover, I still haven't graduated due to the fact that I'm going on an exchange semester. All-in-all, applying for Fall 2023 round is just not a great idea.

After discussing with WES, I decided to just chill a bit and first finish my exchange period. I think I would find a job after I return, and prepare for my GRE and TOEFL tests alongside my carrer to pass the military service waiting period.

Quite a huge change (one year delay), but I actually really like this new plan :)
