But I guess it\u2019s just because I\u2019m still going through a rocky patch in my life when I need to keep reminding myself to get up and go on.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 10pt\"><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:115%\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">See data gathering for my PhD is turning out to be a nightmare of note. Master\u2019s was tough\u2026 my friends all know 2011 was the worst year of my life. The year I got divorced doesn\u2019t even compare to the year when I wrote Master\u2019s. And this time it feels tougher\u2014in a different way. For my Master\u2019s degree I had the data, I just did not have a methodology. My current situation is that I contacted each one of my target population personally (numerous times) and of the 30 pharmaceutical organisations, I\u2019ve only gotten data back from 4 thus far! A sinking feeling if there ever was any. I just don\u2019t have the data to even consider any methodology. But I have no choice but to just persist, and do\u00a0<b>whatever<\/b>\u00a0it takes to stay positive.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 10pt\"><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:115%\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">Thing is, I know why I want this PhD. It\u2019s for very personal reasons. Over the weekend I thought about it again. I know that I will add more value to people\u2014my students, my colleagues, my business partners, and even my family and friends\u2014once I have this degree. I\u2019m going to make a difference, and this degree is going to put me in a better position to do that. So quitting is just not an option.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 10pt\"><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:115%\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">And so I sat outside in the courtyard at campus yesterday and had a smoke (SHOCK! Horror Holly har Bronwyn!!!!\u2014I hear Shaun swearing at me). Yes I know I quit for three years and I will quit again Shaunie, I promise. It\u2019s a crap habit. You know that I know. It\u2019s just tough right now. Besides work being a monster, my personal life has been on a rollercoaster this year too. A failed relationship earlier in the year and recently another romantic encounter spun me like a top\u2026 but thankfully the uncertainty around that is over now. My friends who know me well are saying, \u201c<i>Yeah that sounds right<\/i>. No such thing as mundane when it comes to this chic.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 10pt\"><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:115%\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">Anyway, getting back to the point. I was observing the students around me, all a bit nervous because they are all writing midterm exams now. And it reminded me again of a pivotal time in my own life, which started on 16<sup>th<\/sup> September 2010 when we wrote the Stats 4 midterm exam. See, when we started studying Stats for the first time, it was scary but most of us got through Stats 3. Then enter Stats 4 and you\u2019re filled with false confidence. Not entirely false confidence, I actually studied. In particular, CUSUM and EWMA (Side note: Now that I lecture Stats 4 I sometimes make a joke with my students and tell them if I ever get two female puppies again I\u2019ll have to call them CUSUM and EWMA\u2026 because that\u2019s what it\u2019s like).<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 10pt\"><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:115%\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">Long story short(er)\u2026.We hashed that Stats 4 exam. It was a bloodbath\u2014blood, guts, and snot actually. In the history of all the exams I have ever written, I never ever felt like that in my life. What a royal mess. I took two days sick leave because I was literally nauseous after that paper.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 10pt\"><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:115%\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">But life goes on. When we got our results only 12 of the 183 in our class passed. I barely scrapped through with 50%. It felt awful. But after licking my wounds during the midterm break my survivor mode kicked in. I needed a Master\u2019s degree to get a lecturing job, so failure was just not an option.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 10pt\"><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:115%\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">I decided to find out who got the highest marks in class, and I decided that I would befriend that person. My quality friends thought it was a hilarious strategy, but I just calmly invited them to \u201cWatch this space.\u201d So when \u201ctop marks student\u201d arrived in class the next Wednesday night, I sat down next to him and I told him he was going to be my friend. He was probably in shock because I can\u2019t remember him even questioning when I gave him my number and he gave me his. His friends were also gobsmacked, but hey&#8230; the strategy worked out well! Between his group of friends and my group of friends we killed the next few Stats 4 assignments by swapping notes and helping each other.\u00a0And on 23<sup>rd<\/sup> November when we wrote final exams, I blazed through that paper. I don\u2019t think I stopped to even breathe. And I passed Stats 4, not with a distinction\u2014I got 70%. But at the end of it all when I graduated I was awarded a B Tech Quality with Cum Laude Honours, and the Dean\u2019s Merit Award for being the person in that year to obtain the highest marks for that degree.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin:0in 0in 10pt\"><span style=\"font-size:11pt\"><span style=\"line-height:115%\"><span style=\"font-family:Calibri,sans-serif\">So I don\u2019t know how yet\u2026. but I know I have to bring this PhD degree home. And I will.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><i>Bronwyn Swartz is a Lecturer and postgraduate research supervisor at Cape Peninsula University of Technology (CPUT) in the Western Cape, South Africa.
