Entries for December 2009
Simone received her PhD just before Christmas, after ten years of study mixed with full time work and children. When we first met she was in the midst of a Siddartha-esque career change. Several years of work as a clinical psychologist followed by a year of carefree travel had left her in a minor existential crisis, and she was briefly trying her hand at being a cleaner. Her aptitude and talent drew her back to psychology, and now she has a Doctorate!. She also has far and away the highest EQ of anyone I know (although inexplicably she gets me wrong occasionally). There is also a trustworthy wisdom to her, and if I was ever to share a lifeboat I’d want her in charge. Congratulations Dr Buff we are all proud of you and love you.
