  "Soul suck. " That's how a "friend" described my life after I explained what EITM is. I can't really argue with that. Grad school does do a lot of sucking to an individual and his or her soul. Plus, political science might be a field that soul sucks more than others...at least now that its focus is more and more towards advanced quantitative methodological techniques...which is exactly what I'm studying. So in essence, I'm part of the problem. Woah.
