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…

Oh god, I so feel your pain, though I'm not as good about going to the grid and actually doing stuff. Hence why I am reading blogs, lots of blogs, lots of blogs written by people I've never met and probably never will.
Just think, in 3 weeks (ish) time, we will all re-emerge blinking into the bright sunlight and we will have things called 'lives' back again, as well as MAs (hopefully) – and life will be simply perfect.
