for designers out there. Just curious where everyone went. :-)

Well, I'm still here, just learning for my Diploma ( = masters).
But after the last test on friday, and the alcoholic aftermath,
I'll enjoy some downtime
I think I might still be here. I'll have to check.
TP, Lord_F: Ah, I wish life were as simple as it was back when I was working on my MA. That's what first got me started here, you know. Not why I first came, but why I posted so much in the beginning. It was my way of staying sane while trying to write my thesis.
Of course, if I had known what the doctorate was going to be like I probably wouldn't have stressed so much.

Still here too. Drop in occasionally but...just started maths at uni (cambridge if anyone knows it). Just slowly starting to realise quite how far in I am over my head

Sometimes I think this whole business of trying to have a real job while going to school is for the birds. I really miss just being able to go to class (and take more than one at a time), then work in the lab the rest of the time. If on the odd chance I ever decide to work on my doctorate, there's no way I'm gonna have a job like I do now

Is that because it's a lot more intense than you thought or more relaxed?

whew... begining to think i was all alone in here. unfortunately i've given up on my masters.... heck i guess you at least gotta do some college to get it.
I tried to do college back when they used to measure font sizes with pica rulers. (ugh...)
This has always and probably will remain one of my favorite forums just on the sheer fact that everyone here (mostly) enjoys coming here and contributing to the community.
I feel undereducated. I'm just doing a Bachelor of Computer Science at RMIT here in the Merry Ol' Land of Aus. Freaky enough for me, though. My Broadcast Network Engineering class had us creating a network simulator that realised the Chord Distributed Hash Table protocol for Peer-to-Peer systems.
