I've gotta say thats probably the most important thing I've learned in the past month or so. To me the material posessions dont matter that much either. As long as you're happy everyday doing what you're doing and you make a decent living then thats all we should need. I'd be happy with a nice house to call my own and a nice car and a happy family. As long as my family was happy then thats all that would really matter anyways

My advice: Pick something and stick with it for more than a week at a time :db:



JK, on the real though...pick something that you'll be the happiest doing. Fuck the money, fuck the bullshit, pick what you want to do. If you're not taking risks, you're not living life.

first comment, :fawk:

I was keeping options open. Still am, but like you said, gotta take risks. I'm tired of playing it safe, I need to start believing in myself more.

One of my good friends is an English major. She already graduated with a Bachelors in English and wanted to go to Law School. She did "ok" in her LSATs and everything and did get accepted but she declined because her boyfriend would be 250 miles away (dumb her cuz now they broke up). But, she can't even find a damn English teacher job of ANY grade. If I were you, do Law School. I'm going for Masters in Mechanical Engineering and maybe (hopefully) a double major for a Bachelors in Architecture. Do it...

I should go to law school because your friend is having a tough time finding a job? :eh:

I don't plan on getting just a bachelors. Which means I'll be at school for a little while longer. I don't want to choose a career because of money.
