And I'm almost there! One more paper and semester left but for my major I need go back and get a masters and right now I'm just done and don't wanna really be bothered with even MORE school.
I was not ready for the "real world" and to work, and was a good student and so decided to stay in school. I went for a PhD so I would get support (teaching assistantship with stipend, and tuition waiver). But after two years I only had passed one "comprehensive" exam out of two (I failed after two attempts with one). They told me I should reconsider. But by then my brain was fried and I wanted out! I also wanted to start earning money and living a more normal life.
