Doctor

I still prefer my colleague and my students calling me Mr rather than Doctor. Actually I don't need to be called Doctor or Professor. I just need to be accepted the way I am... :-)

But then, some of my colleagues have introduced me to students with a title Doctor in front of my name.

Actually I don't really care nor bother whether they want to call me Doctor, Professor, or whatsoever.

As long as they are comfortable with it, so be it.

" You have Doctorate degree, so why are you here? Why don't you go to any research institution or medical industry?"

Hmm, I'm quite used to that question already for the past four months. So many people have asked that same question.

I wonder does Doctorate title really sound that great?

If you are inside PhD field for some time already, maybe you will understand my decision why I choose to change my "destiny" away from the "normal academia pathway".
