Counting the disappointments

.....yet another one. All within this week. It it disappointing, tiring. Just when I tried to stand up again, another blow came crushing.



I admit, life has been going pretty well recently. So, I shouldn't be too upset with the setbacks that I'm experiencing now. But the frequency, and the timing of the setbacks really do set me back. Way back.



Just got the reply from CTW... my paper requires substantial revisions to be *resubmitted*. Read that again... not *accepted*, but *resubmitted*. Perhaps I was too ambitious.



On the positive side (here, I'm trying to stand up again), if I managed to rewrite my paper to satisfy the reviewers, then I would have upgrade my writing skill. I should be able to plan and write papers suitable for international journals. Ultimately, that's what the PhD training should do to me.
