I'm in love with numbers!


Everybody may encounter situation of being confused on where to go and what to do. Since seven years ago, I have been involved in research activities and during this time I jumped over one branch to the other, not only in terms of topic, but also from research method point of view. During early months of my research activities I tried to run my work based on case study, but it did not take so long that I realized it would be hard for an infant researcher!
I was lucky enough to base my first research attempt on survey. Even though it was not easy to do, I did not face serious difficulties to interpret my data. I enjoyed every single step of that project. But the topic I took for my PhD research unfortunately did not seem to be done through survey method. So, I started to run case study. But again my love to numbers persuaded me to deviate toward quantitative mathematical modeling.
Now it is just a few days that I have been involved in a survey study for the second time and I feel extremely productive, happy with my work and hopeful for future! Yeah, it is what love can do! And I am in love with numbers and statistics :)
