Sometimes you have to get something to realize how much you really don't want it. I did it! I'm *this close* to being done with law school. And the only thing I can think is, "God, I hate this so much!" I learned this year that I don't want to be a lawyer; any kind of lawyer at all. $100k, 80#, elevated cholesterol, 2 illnesses, a food intolerance, and the soul-crushing exercise of doing something I hate and I realize I'd have been happier as a cab driver, bartender, or animal rescuer.
Was it worth it? The degree was most definitely NOT worth it. The lesson that "top of the heap" is not where I want to be? Priceless. Well, almost. I do expect a refund of sorts in returning health. So there's my dirty secret. I hate it; I'm over it; I can't wait to be done with it; and I wish I'd never done it.
The things you learn.
