#my friend defended her phd thesis today and I’m so happy for her#we were on this journey together until I quit two years ago and it’s amazing how well-researched her thesis is#however by the end of the day I can’t help but think that I could#do that too maybe? or I wouldn’t be able to?#also watching her defend her thesis and seeing familiar faces made me somehow nostalgic abt the whole academic setting#and lately I’ve been feeling such a lack of purpose in anything I do I wonder if it were different had I stayed#or is it nostalgia lying? I think factually I quite hated being at uni in the last semesters#but my problem was the supervisor mainly and I try to imagine now how it could be with someone else#so many maybes and hypotheticals.. maybe I’m where I’m meant to be as of now even if still not happy lol#oh i also remembered how i thought i would be lonely forever bc at my uni most of the lecturers are middle-aged and over women#and now i simply sit at home alone all day#funny huh
