Sometimes being a quitter feels so good.

I have never thought of myself as a quitter and usually when I commit to something I try to finish and follow through.  However, this week I think I was the biggest quitter I have ever been and I feel so relieved to have done it.  I decided about a month ago that I was going to go back to school and try to finish up my Ph.D. in bioengineering.  I was already 4 years into it and my advisor was willing to let me come back only part time.  After going in for a few days though, I just felt so strongly like I didn't want to be there and so I quit.  SOOOO, I am getting my masters of science in bioengineering and am just going to be done.  I am so relieved and happy.  I am also really glad all I have to do is get paper work signed and that is that since I already have everything required for my MS.  My boss actually offered me a job when I went in to quit so I am thinking about doing that instead.  Anyways, I recommend everyone try to quit something, I should have tried it sooner.
