overwhelmed
after an awesome weekend, i had to re-focus and get back to work today. however.............there was this HUGE feeling of doubt and uncertainty to overcome before i could begin working. i was able to put this past me, but it kept emerging in my mind. the cause of this feeling........................i was around many old friends during the weekend, and they are working (on their way to financial independence) and beginning their family lives. and me..............what am i doing? i am a STUDENT.......working on my phd............all alone. i can deal with the student thing and being broke, but i am REALLY tired of being alone and without the people that care the most about me. especially, being without the one i care most about.

Hey, I know the feeling of being a student while your friends grow up. I just finished my Master's in Theology after 4 years, and only now am I able to begin doing what I love!
I hope you do well in school. Don't forget - it's all worth it! You will be light years ahead of them.
Brother Hylick,
Let me assure you that many people are out there pursuing financial independence, but you will have time.
Myself, I am in the opposite camp. I look at the many friends of mine in graduate school and I feel like I'm "missing the bus" sometimes. I have an urge to return to school--I wanted to get my PhD until I found out that I don't have a passion for research--I just like teaching.
I do need at least a Master's degree and so I will pursue it--whether it be a MS in Industrial Engineering or an MBA, I see the need for more education to stay competitive moving forward.
Rest assured, when you exit your program, you'll still be in your 20s and you can still succeed financially. And if your friends are your friends, they'll still be there and you will be just as successful as they are.
Keep up the good fight. You'll be a "Dr." before you know it.
hi. rest assure that you're not the only person feeling this way. i am also a phd and i find myself emotionally and mentally drained from all the nonstop work that i've done for the past 2.5 years. i cannot give you much support or suggestions since i am dealing with the same problem. but perhaps knowing that you're not alone should be a little more comforting?
We all tend to explain, comment on, or even assess a topic of study in an oral or mostly written form at many universities we study in from time to time. We may use custom essay papers by papersmart company that would be a reasonable issue for the next few generations of students. Our educational system is generally influenced by all fields of social life as well as politics and science. But luckily high-technologies are used to help students learn better.
Output is always good emotions, relaxation and the ability to communicate with your friends! But there is work that brings us back to reality! Therefore, we should appreciate this moment alone and do not worry! That is way I recommend the best way to relax after education! It is essay writing service !
Assistant principals are responsible for ordering textbooks, handling discipline, hiring teachers, scheduling classes and devising recreational programs. Depending on the size of the school, there may be several assistant principals monitoring students and activities. While it isn't strictly necessary to teach before moving into a principal's position, most assistant principals have held teaching positions prior to earning a promotion. paper writing
Though some assistant principals start their careers as teachers, others begin in school administrative positions. An undergraduate degree in education is essential, and nearly all states require public school principals to hold master's degrees in education or educational leadership. helpful resources
