- I still don’t know if the academic life is for me.
- I’m burning out—between Spring 2007-Fall 2009 I took 18-23 units a semester, I volunteered at a research lab, I volunteered as a sexual assault counselor, and I secured a 2-year scholarship that is nearing the end.
- I worry that I am doing it ‘just because’
- Politics suck. Politics ruins EVERYTHING.
- I think I’d be happy living in a small humble house by the beach with my partner and my dog
- I want to pursue other hobbies
- WHY IS MONEY SUCH AN ISSUE
- Money can’t buy you happiness but it can sure provide you with the means to acquire happiness (i.e. I need money to take classes on mycology, I’d fucking love a house too)
- I love what I’m doing, but I wonder if there are better ways to continue doing what I love
- I’d prefer working at a non-profit than being a principal investigator conducting independent research.
- I still feel like I haven’t accomplished enough
- Still want to explore the world
- Still want to save the world
- Still want to help end violence against women
- Still want to challenge current views of masculinity, manhood, and femininity
