I finally graduated with a doctorate yesterday! Hand Shake LeftTongue:handshakeR:

After 10 loooong years at Monash Uni -- 3 years mechanical engineering, 4 years computer science, and 4 years PhD -- it's all finally over. Now I can focus on building games, which I now realise is one of the most fruitful and intellectually stimulating activities one can undertake. Not to mention that, unlike a PhD, people can actually understand what you're doing, it has commercial viability, and more than that, it's fun!

Now Zoidberg and I can hang out and discuss Doctorology!

@sirniko I did 3 years of MechEng before I started failing, so don't ask me any mech questions Tongue. Then I started over and did a comp sci degree which I smashed. Oh, and my advice is to not do a PhD, unless you have a very clear idea already and can finish in 3 years. I took 4 and a half, and the last year dragged on and was hell.
@richard thx, just wearing the oversized dr seuss hat was worth all the effort. Smiley
@monster, thats dr. wizard to you. O_O
@moi ooh yes please!
@radix The only argument i have is where the couch is positioned in our loungeroom. and i'll just get kicked in the nuts by the wife if I play the PhD card.
@andyw cheers! i will use it well ... by quitting academia and being an indie developer. Addicted

 I am 14, and in two or four (probably two) years, I'll be entering college for my AA degree in Computer Science. Have any advice?
