sleep

or the lack of it. Thats what characterising my life as of late. That, and procrastination! The perfect recipe for…. apple pie? No wait! mmmm.. The perfect recipie for disaster.

Over the last week, i’ve been reading “Piled High and Deep”, which very rightly characterizes what its like to be a graduate student and in the middle of a research phase. I’ve been doing my research at a very slow pace over the last couple of months basically because i realized what i set out to do is not really that possible here. Its research based on the industry, which sadly… sucks big time! Atleast in karachi. So i might relocate to lahore to get some good data.. but thats for another day.

I need to get my research finished ASAP. And yet, i need it to be meaningful. Whats the use of replicating something which cannot be used. I mentioned this fact to a couple of senior people and here’s what they had to say.

Me: I need it to be meaningful, so that it can bring joy to the world and end suffering of millions of people!!!!
Them: ZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz! huh?? what?? did you say something?

I think im meeting the wrong people. *sigh*

    Well all it requires is a little more focus a change in priorities and DEFINITELY not LACK of SLEEP…as for the industry…it aint that bad if you ask me and if you are just reporting what is there…no use for research…everybody knows it anyway…

    I think you should target your research as to how it could become better…and then come up with ideas & solutions…

    In the words of Gandhi - “You must be the change you wish to see in this world…”
