Sometimes graduate school feels like one really, really big downloaded file. On an average day, I probably spend three to four hours reading through what can be quite dense/technical (though--happily--mostly interesting) material. My job is to understand that material, synthesize it with related opinions, and form my own critical response. It's definitely a test of intellectual endurance, and I still have four more YEARS of this to go. Is there enough hard drive space in my head for it all? At the same time, I love it--constantly engaging with new ideas and having to argue them out. But that doesn't mean at times I wish I could be Neo in the first Matrix--just download the kung fu (or social theory) to my brain already!!!
