canned PhDs??

Photo taken by Alex, in Taipei

How would you like your PhD? Canned or fresh? as written on the box, yes a PhD takes four years to complete, probably if you buy a canned one you can use it whenever you want, the fresh ones are more problematic, because you have already started the process..

Well, as a PhD student at the moment, seeing these cans made me smile. And a s a PhD student who is about to finish and have her title soon (yay!) I started to think how easy and difficult it was to go through this whole process of scientific research. Therefore, I dedicate this photo to all my fellow PhD students who have just started or about to finish. All I can say is: Just enjoy every moment of it and realise it is worth to undergo the difficulties! For me it has been a very special four years, in a way I'm sad that it is about to be over.. but I know that something 'very nice' (and whatever that is) is waiting for me afterwards! :)
