It's something that I'd do as a hobby even if it weren't my major. If you think you'd actually like being a lawyer, because you like the process of putting a case together, or you like speaking in court or whatever, then go for it, and keep pushing. But if you don't then I guess maybe consider something else? Money, or even because it's fulfilling just don't seem like sufficient reasons to justify the stress that law puts you through. There are other fulfilling jobs out there, and easier ways of making money. One of the things that one of my friends was considering was working for an NGO like the UN? Maybe something like that. Either way, a law degree will open plenty of doors for you, so don't give up! *snugs*
