t, i do not envy your schoolwork! while part of me feels the grad school route makes perfect sense, part of me recoils in horror at the thought of doing presentations and writing papers! aahhh!! i barely survived 4 years!

i love to learn on my own, but i just don't think i can do more school. how much more school do you have, anyway??

you NEVER EVER ask a doctoral student "how much longer?" ever.

4 years left, if i really bust my ass.

i got my ass raked over the coals AGAIN in school today. kill me.

but then i trained jiu jitsu for 4 hours, so i feel mentally better. physically, i'm a zombie right now. with an achey leg. haha.

don't envy grad students. ha. i love to learn on my own, too, and sometimes i can't BELIEVE how much i've learned in grad school. i think back to what an idiot i was before i started, in many many ways, not just learning useless info. i mean, i can't believe how much i've learned about my field. absurd.

but sometimes, i want to cry and quit.
