Dear PhD.,

I can't have a conversation or watch a video without wanting to reference everything or finding problems with the terms used or identifying the underlying assumptions in the discourse. Is this my life now?

Dear PhD.,
You have done the impossible. I have become a morning person because of you. I sleep at 11 and wake at 6:30 everyday. I feel old.

Dear PhD.

I got serious about you a couple of months ago (15th April is our anniversary).
My in-laws, the funding agency insisted on it. I have to say I love-hate you.

Dear PhD.,

Please stop being in my dreams. Is it not enough that we spend the day together?

Dear PhD. ,

When I tell people with doctoratates I am doing my PhD., they look at me like I am a victim of a hideous crime.
May the academic gods protect me.

Dear PhD.,

Today I go back to the research design and methodology? Self-doubt or am I just stupid enough to forget the basics?

Dear PhD.,

I went to Africa and when I came back, here you were doing nothing. So its time to give you another push.
