I earned a bachelor’s and a master’s degree in computer science consecutively and was very proud of it. I worked in the field until the age of 33, when I married my husband, whom I met the year prior during the pandemic, and decided to stop working to focus on being a trophy wife full-time. I’m currently considering getting a PhD, since I have a lot of time on my hands, to complete the academic “trifecta”.

    going through university rn and I wish I’d just done 3 years in the military out of school, then gone on to other things. Uni is incredibly lacking in structure, taking a long long time while also not keeping you very engaged with the material - I’m no longer interested in what i started studying, I’m even less interested in what I’m currently studying, doing odd jobs that don’t need a degree seems far more cost effective and better for personal growth.
