Input: Text: i'm doing some pointless navel gazing here. 

in 2006-8, i was an undergraduate researcher in the physical anthropology and geoscience labs at my university's museum. i really enjoyed the lab work, but i had more fun in my other position at the museum, where i led field trips and taught at the after-school programs. at the time, i realized my true calling was in programs and analyzing teaching patterns and the resulting behavior of students', as well as assessing their performances later on. this led me to leave physical anthropology and delve into a different field.  

i am in the final stage of my doctorate in science education, and i love studying students and their learning environments. however, i felt an incredible pang of nostalgia as i was watching a nova documentary on neanderthal dna analysis. i'm now having some severe buyer's remorse; instead of being in classrooms, i could be out in the fresh, cold air of the dolomites, digging up bones and analyzing them in labs. i could be re-creating weapons and analyzing how hunter-gatherers in different environments used them for their daily living. 

of course, this is all a highly romanticized view of reality; many of the other archaeology undergrads that were in my program did not make it in to graduate school, and of those that are, many are struggling to finish their doctorates (because research in foreign countries takes time and $$, while my research is quickly being conducted at local schools and museums) or find jobs.

but i miss physical lab work. if i could just have time to volunteer at a lab, but i can't, because i would be that creepy weirdo that's analyzing bone fragments for funzies, rather then have the work be applied to genuine research and development for my career. i also need to finish my dissertation within the next 18 months as well, and can not take off extra time for nostalgic research that will do nothing for my cv.

TIFU by earning my Ph.D in the wrong field.
