I loved the college experience of studying.

I feel so gratified about having finished college. I learned how to articulate myself. It gave me confidence more than anything. And also the ability to analyze the text.

I simply loved education. I mean, I always loved acting as well. It really was a major passion for me, but one I felt I could only fully explore once I'd completed my degree.

I love art, but I'm not an academic; I just like what I like.

Too many years away from academia renders you pretty incompetent at research and teaching. So I had to go back.

I saw leaving college as an opportunity to do something different with my life. I always thought that becoming an academic was going to be my path.

I love academics, theory and all that. I love and admire that and try to do as much reading as I can.
