passion?
I ran into someone who was doing her Masters in my lab a few years ago.: why didn't u go on to complete you phd? why stop at masters?
E: because i hate research.
wow, that was said without a pause for thought at all.
: When did u realise that?
E: As soon as i started my grad studies.
wat about you? plans for grad studies?
: I don know, its a big decision, its like marriage u know. The amount of commitment involve and once you are in it, its almost for sure u can't get out of it. even if u do, wat can you do? u will be a highly qualified but jobless person.
see, the thing is that I don't know how far passion alone can bring me. i guess passion and stupidity will do!
By the time i decide, i could be way too old.
