看到魏冬的日志让我心生很多感慨。感谢魏冬，在申请和学术上我们交流最多，在申请上他对我帮助太大，让我避免了被计量很好的dream school UCSD拒掉的局面；更重要的，让我在申请时放心许多。我的申请是个一波三折的故事，想得到开始，但想不到结局；我觉得应该写点什么作为纪念，也算给大家提供一点经验教训。另外感谢魏冬和吴沛凡，你们两个写的日志让我明白申请总结应该怎么写，因此省掉我很多时间思考结构，可以hardcore地把想说的都说出来。 致谢 首先要感谢的当然是我的三个推荐人。我只有三个推荐人，并且在所有学校上用了同样的package。L老师是nonparametric metrics界的大师，能有机会上他的博士生课并且拿到信我不胜荣幸；他的和蔼出乎意料，我填推荐人的两天之内几乎所有信就已经交了；在申请结果出来的时候还从美国打电话给我，我的感激之情无法形容。UBC的M老师对我帮助太大，我只能感激自己在换到UBC的情况下还能碰到这么好而且做metrics的老师，在申请之前和之中总是给我信心，帮我很仔细地改了SOP，而且我的第一个offer还是他先告诉我的。经管的Z老师是最熟悉最

ANALYSIS “Before the Birth of Her Children,” by Anne Bradstreet tells of mothers’ maternal fears that are accompanied by love. Bradstreet makes her writing personable for the reader by reminding them of their mother’s love to show that a mother’s love is like no other.

By using words like “irrevocable”, Bradstreet emphasizes the

Life does not always come as one wishes it would, being alive means to exist, but perhaps the journey and ending of a life is already destined from the second an individual is conceived.

In order to have pure happiness, tolerating the storm for the sun and giving selflessly is crucial; this is evident in A Prayer for Owen Meany. John Irving uses irony in

Madonna is the perfect example where drive and ambition resulted in her fame and success, not the direct pursuit of money and fame. Madonna had very little musical background and no contacts when she arrived in New York. However, that did not stop her.

She watched and listened to current trends in music and adjusted her career to the dance music industry that was becoming popular
