Get over my corpse!

Well done and congratulations to me! I got the most prestigious Japanese fellowship for working abroad! So far I have succeeded to get 7 fellowships, some of which I had to refuse to accept because of overlapping the period of fellowships (out of which I got 6 fellowships.). This time I had tried the same fellowship that I already got an informal decision but refused three years ago. Therefore, I was successful to get the fellowship twice, both of which they offered exemption from the interview! I am proud of myself that I have earned my salary and money for my work by myself, independently of hire by the working place. Now I am a bit confident I am good at (or have a talent?) persuading (or tricking?) people to get funds...Whatever, work, work, work!
