disappointed

I have been trying to apply for further study for many years. Over the years, I recycle the same paper because I just don’t want to spend too much time on it, after all I don’t know if my application will get thru our internal assessment. True enough, my applications were rejected due to my age that I seemed to appear very young. Yesterday I was looking for the same paper I sent last year but couldn’t find it in my desktop. So I asked from some friends whom I shared my paper with. I’m shocked and beyond words to find out that my paper was used and very minor amendments were made to it. I’m very upset and disappointed because given such limited time, I have to re-craft the whole thing. Generally, I love writing. My writing can be very simple, I have not been artistic and my vocabularies are limited. But I enjoy the moments I pen down my thoughts following the flow state of my mind. I feel it’s so wrong to take one’s ideas, massage them and keep them as theirs.
