To be politically correct?

Since i moved in to my new apartment, life hasn't changed not much but
definitely clean posh garden, play ground for children and various class amenities has given me ample opportunity to not just sit in my home but roam around only to interact with apartment mates and others.
One such class of people are small children that i am meeting every now and then.this group has children aged between 2 to 6 years. They seems to have accepted me as now i am finding looking at me and giving welcoming smile what i expect from elders. Anyways, these 2-6 years group find me amicable and likes to explore me more. The guys in the group are quiet handsome, thanks to their mom and the girls are okay. Somehow guys of this age never show any interst in me but girls do like to circle around me and slowly ask me what my name is. Yeah, actually a six years old girl was watching me from far smiled at me and then started playing around swinging bar where i was sitting. First started singing loudly and then gesticulated towards me as in to show that she find me amicable. Soon she asked me what my name is and where i am from. I asked her in return trying to suit to her amiable behaviour. Suddenly she said something unexpectedly that my name sound too sweet to her, is it? i never got any compliment like this and after sometimes she came back
to me and she also said that i look so sweet now that was awe strucking
to me. How can the children at this age be politically correct in their
speech? Also, i expected them to call me aunt but instead they rather
choose to call me 'didi'. So i am starting to wonder if i am getting
younger day by day which i don't complain or the children of new
generations are getting mature much ahead in time.......to be continued

Who Wants to do a Ph.D.?

Some facts about Ph.d degree and ph.ds, joted points are taken from other articles.

• Getting a Ph.D. is intellectually rewarding but not necessarily financially rewarding.
• If being a Ph.D. student sounds like a monk-like existence, that’s because in some ways, it is.
• Obtaining a Ph.D. means being a starving student for another five years or more. Giving up financial security for the pursuit of new knowledge is noble to some but foolish to others.
• Keep in mind that Ph.D. students tend to be extremely intelligent and to love their field of study. To them, academic work is play, and many enjoy studying night and day.
• Prepare for the stresses of a Ph.D. program by carefully choosing living space and writing out an estimated budget.
• When frustration mounts, keep in mind that there is life outside your department, and most people have never even heard of what you are studying.
• If a big house, expensive cars and luxurious vacations are important to you, then the Ph.D. is probably not the degree for you.
• With few exceptions, people do not grow wealthy by using their Ph.D. training. The overwhelming majority of Ph.D.s just makes a living.
  Its been two years and I am still recovering from the aftermath of ph.d. Thinking of my ph.d days take me altogether into another world where computer was the source of happiness where we would run our algorithms and see the result, if the result is good my evening would be good otherwise the other way. Apart from computers, library was anohter thing was most important in our life, like wise writing reports etc.....Basically you consider your office room as your world and the computer, books, etc would form family members. Those who were engaged broke up with their girl/boy friend with in an year, those who were married got seperated and those who joined ph.d while single remained so for another half decade. Still i am single...is it the professional hazard or we ph.ds just become so different from the rest fo the normal people...........

Have started writing blogs...hope to keep writing my mind here....keep commenting.....
