I really don't get why PhD students complain about the workload. I can pretty much wake up any time, I don't have any classes or papers or exams or boring courses. I just study mostly things that I consider fascinating. I agree with you. Classics is something so broad that it's difficult to not find anything you like. |
Sounds fascinating man. Good luck with your PhD! What's nice about PhD's is that unlike say a bachelor's program for example, if a person is doing a PhD, then he/she is more than likely completely personally invested in their subject of choice and completely willing to learn as much as they can about it. As opposed to a bachelors, where the student is usually just taking classes just to take classes, or just to move on with life, etc.
I usually love having a beer with a PhD student and having a conversation about their topic of choice just cause they are so well-versed and one can learn quite a bit from them. Cool stuff man! Keep on keepin' on!
