My cousin's reaction towards my determination for a PhD degree strikes me really hard. 'Why do you want to do a PhD in a university while you can gain as much experiences at your work?' He is a very rich man and he said this when I asked him for financial support. I told him that I wanted to become a university lecture, he replied me ' why on earth do you want to work in a university?' 'because I feel becoming a scholar suits me better and plus it is Oxford' He didn't say much but I can feel his disapproval.
Then I come across this article http://www.plasticbag.org/archives/2004/07/what_you_should_know_before_starting_a_doctorate/
it really stirs my mind a lot... when I have to make a decision between going to uni again with lots of debts, and getting pregnant in China, what can I do?
