Hi TreeofLife, thank you for your reply, I know I need to face the public some day and I don't mind that. I am an introvert not an extrovert. I was saying that in this society, extroverts are favoured.
I am looking for PhDs using the Findaphd website and emailing around to see if there are any vacancies. :)
Again, thank you for your reply :)

Hi everyone, I am new to this forum so I will introduce myself:
I am a pharmacist and I am interested in applying for a PhD. I have qualified for a year as a pharmacist now and found that working life isn't what I had hoped it would be. I am quite an awkward person, and small talk isn't really my thing. So I found that people who are more extroverted (using this term loosely) have a higher chance of talking their way up. So I decided to pursue a PhD instead. Not just because of this experience in work, but also I did enjoy research in my Masters. I enjoyed learning and getting answers to things I thought I would never understand.
I know some PhD students out there will tell me that it isn't enjoyable at all but I have been thinking about it for a long time and I came to this conclusion.
So my question is: Where do I start? I have been looking at different universities, hoping to find out when their PhD applications open and so far I'm not getting much luck. I have my references sorted and my research CV completed and now, I just need to find something out there that I am interested in. But the more I look the more it seems like I'm missing something! (Maybe this is what research is like :))

I hope you can help me, I would be very grateful if you can. Thank you
