Do I really want to get my PhD?

Mar 06, 2007 19:55

I had an interview with UB today. It went very well. Everyone was SUPER nice. Oh... and my interview at Einstein was good (with the exception of my meeting with Dr. Michael Bennett). I guess that they liked me because I was accepted into their program. Roswell also accepted me. Now I have decisions to make.

God!!!! Why do I even want to go to grad school if nothing I even do in the lab EVER works?! I have been running PCR and gels for the past 1.5 months. It needs to be over. I really hate doing mindless bench work that doesn't even matter. I want to do something important. I want to make discoveries and solve problems. I don't want to just wait around until there is nothing left in the world that is new..................

....................................I'm calm now.....................................

I guess that's why I want to get my PhD. Hopefully I will remember this rant the next time I am neck deep into Ethidium Bromide. Speaking of which... I should really start using my Ginko again. I will take it tonight... maybe...

Perhaps this weekend would be a nice one to go out dancing/drunking to relieve the stress. Anyone want to join?
