Going through hell at the defense yesterday make me realize that I’m in the intersection of cryptographer, engineer and mathematician. I’m not an engineer, not a scientist and not yet a philosopher. I’m just someone who understands a little bit from every domain. Not an expert of everything like I had in mind I would be when I have reached this stage.
But above all, now I understand that even that I’m just a mediocre of everything, I’m a researcher. My greatest weapon is my curiosity, guts and reactive nature. And if being handled with care (whatever that means), I can be very very persistence 🙂
Well I might not end up being a genius finding a new theorem and win a Nobel Prize or anything prodigious, but I’m happy enough that this gradschool process is taking me to a higher level of matureness both as an academic and as a person.
So maybe doing gradschool is not useless after all, hihih.
