“Believe me, it’s better to produce the balance-sheet of your own life than that of the grain market.”

—SENECA, ON THE BREVITY OF LIFE, 18.3b

On that note,I am finally done with the balance sheet of my coursework requirements for the PhD.
I am done with the exams, just had my last one today.
Done with homework and assignments and projects and class time and dealing with the peculiarities of every professor and class.

Now, now that I am free, I can focus on the main reason why I went for a PhD in the first place: After four years, I am allowed to do the part that got me all riled up for this shit in the first place.

I can't be grateful enough that this chapter is concluded.

I'm not going to do anything today, just watch Aggretsuko

Why do I look like a criminal?

Oh Retsi, you sure crack me up every-fucking-time
