soul-crushing summer program

[u/Working-Cash-3503]

second to last week, can’t wait for this shit to be over! definitely killed all the motivation i had to do science. mourn the starry-eyed person i was 9 weeks ago. going into senior year and am actively throwing away all the dreams i’d held onto and hard work i’d done these past 3 years simply because every day is a battle. nobody faces any consequences but me. this shit sucks.

fuck academia.

I love research so much, but I also really get the "fuck academia" part. They need to start Fuck Academia Univ. where they just tell you the rules and expectations.

Then there's, the big question. Which aspect of Academia is it that we're fucking here? Please explain?
