Current Uni Status

just to let anyone who reads this know about my current uni activities so people can stop asking:

I swaped to a masters because i found the phd topic:

too boring
not enough money
too time consuming
not rewarding enough

I know i wanted a phd for the Dr at the start of my name, but really, another two years on a project that is boring seems like a waste of time, not to mention thats over 100k in potential lost earnings, when you include the first year. So now im going to finish what ive completed so far as a masters

FAQ:
Q: can you do that?
A: yes.
Q: have you done enough to finish soon?
A: almost, another 1-2 months.
Q: will your stripend still cover you?
A: i think so, supervisor is checking into it. he thinks most likely for up to another roughly 5 months
Q: does it lower your employability?
A: post-grad is not that important in engineering in australia, so no, infact having a masters is sometimes considered more "practicle" than having a phd, also i dont have to tell people thats what happened
Q: Do you feel like you've failed?
A: hard to say, masters is an achievement if thats what you aim for, but i aimed for a fud, so sorta falling short in that sence, but not a complete fail, id say it feels like 75-80% success 20-25% fail.
Q: why did you do a phd if you weren't that interested?
A: i wanted to have a phd, wasnt really that interested in doing a phd. just wanted to be a Dr.
