My Waterloo?

I don’t think my device works. I am not sure about that. At this point I am not sure about anything.

I have another set of devices that will be ready on Wednesday. If they don’t work either, its back to the drawing board for me.

All I know is that I have spent the last 9 months designing and fabricating this, now there is a chance that it will never work due to a design flaw.

I am a really bad engineer and a worse researcher. I should probably quit before I waste anymore time on a PhD I might never get.

    Pseudo – sorry to hear you sounding so discouraged. grad school has such a way of making a person feel isolated. is there an academic advisor or someone you could talk to?

    Every one hits a bump in the road man. But dont give up! I agree with Zelda isnt there some one that you can talk to?

    I guess you guys were right. Maybe I am over reacting to this. Its just that I have never had such a major setback before.

    We all have them. Some bigger than others. Dont let these set backs determine your self worth!
