Academia is a lovely experience filled with people passionate about knowledge, even if quite elitistic and emotionally underdeveloped because of spending most of their years in relation with books. But there is much to learn and to expand in the process. It is the proving my worth/my knowledge in rapport with standard evaluation methods part that I could not addapt to. I have studies in two masters but did not get the dissertation diploma for neither of them. One was in Theories and Methods of Research in Communication and the other was in Art history and the Philosophy of Culture. With or without the recognition, my thinking was shaped by them and in the end I think this is all that matters.
