When I started grad-school I was eager and bright,

Couldn’t wait to get to my reading,

But, I’m telling you now - it’s not what you think,

In fact, what you see is misleading.

 

Academics was fun, learning lots of new things,

But my social life went for a toss,

From classes to lab, and library to home

The sole person I met was my prof.

 

But soon I discovered, a magical cure,

(To the gap that had formed in my heart),

It’s enormous potential was one I had missed,

Though it lay before me, from the start

 

But now we’re together, all day and all night,

Every need that I have it has met,

Of movies, and music, and social-networking

The thanks go to my Internet.

 

The unfortunate thing is, I’m always connected,

One hundred percent of the time,

I have deadlines to meet, many projects to do,

Instead, I am writing this rhyme!
