Indeed, I'm almost convinced of this. My advisor invited me to work with him then I got excited by the idea of doing something more complex than what I was doing. I wasn't really thrilled by getting into school again, but I guess it was good to my ego :P

A year passed and the freshness faded away. Now I'm struggling to get things done because I really don't see a point in what I am doing. I don't know if I'm going to drop out yet, but if I do it won't take long to happen.

Well, at worst I guess I'm learning what not to do :)
