Yeah, you were on your way to having a PhD.

Yeah, yeah.

Yeah.

And again, when I look back on it, I can see how, like, I was, like, I did my master's thesis on a psychoanalytic interpretation of Harry Potter.

Like, that was literally, I loved Harry Potter books.

I could have read them, you know,

Watch those movies over and over and over again.

And so the guy came in and he said, if you're picking a master's thesis, pick something that you're passionate about, because you're going to have to read buckets and buckets and buckets of stuff about this.

And I was like, I can't do they were all describing loads of really bright, intelligent things.

And I was like, Harry Potter, what could I do with that?

And so and I never kind of felt part of the story.

that kind of world either.

There's always been, like, I remember this guy coming in who's teaching us and he said, like, psychoanalysts like foreign language film, cryptic crosswords.

And then they're going, oh, that's not me.

Like, I love mainstream movies.

And, you know, a Chinese for me is chicken balls and chips.

You know, I'm that kind of a person.

So maybe I don't fit in this room.

But I was able to turn it in a way that

was interesting to me.
