About me November 13, 2008

Lots of people go to grad school. Some even finish. In between, there’s a lot that goes on. This is one person’s experience (mine, actually) of what it’s like to be in grad school, from the uncertain beginnings to the gory end. I gloat, despair, complain, and overanalyze by turns, and sometimes it may be kind of funny. Sure, I’ve made a few mistakes, but if I can help even one person from making these same mistakes, then this blog has served its purpose. My experiences are by no means unique, but I try to be candid about the whole sordid mess rather than wallow in solitude and self-pity. I also enjoy photography and home improvement, so my posts occasionally focus on these things, but for the most part I stick to academic matters. Not the most exciting shit, but one could do worse.
