Dissertation III

…sigh

it seems my life has completely stopped and instead been engulfed and replaced by a much larger (and nastier) force called the dissertation, and judging by the number of students around me in this so called land called the Learning Grid, at least I know I'm not alone

Notice how the word "dissert" in "dissertation" sounds like the word "desert" as in "to leave empty or alone; abandon" (courtesy of dictionary.com).. perhaps a hint that once you enter this state, your life will be "empty or alone," as you abandon E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G else in your life (including sleep and food.. and just forget about any form of entertainment)... and I think there goes my sense of humor sigh goodbye cruel cruel world…
