Hi Ruth,
Sorry about being this, as was only able to sit down and think about the
project until last friday, i have submitted the research proposal via the
portal and all the info that i can get, however, due to christmas, i am
able to get any reference yet. But i do submitted their name and etc.
I understand that it is no way to be good application form as the time is
limited; I have some thinking about the proposal, and let see how it goes.
Will be great to talk to you after holiday.
Regards,
Karrie
