I'm not generally a 'best time of my life' person. I'm also not entirely sure I can objectively compare a period that just ended a couple of years ago to other periods further removed.

Having said that, I think that grad school may well have been the best time of my life. To be in a community where my mentors actively respected and encouraged my ideas, allowing me to produce a substantial piece of work of my own devising. Not to mention substantial amounts of free time. That's pretty sweet. Not to mention that grad school represents the period when I got married! Were there times when I was frustrated and despised it? Damn right. But compare that to a 9-5 desk job, and I'd take grad school any day.
