My job! While the economy continues on a ridiculously scary downward spiral (the unemployment rate is 8.1% WTH?!?!), I have to be extremely grateful about the fact that I have a job. Not only do I have a job, I have one that pays well, doesn't require much effort on my part, and is secure at least until I go to law school. Though that is the case, I am literally counting the days until it's all over, mostly because I'm sooooooo bored! I have entirely too much free time, which allows my mind to wander and I end up thinking up these crazy scenarios regarding law school. Some of it is helpful because it allows me to make certain plans regarding my legal education, but on the other hand, my brain usually doesn't know when to stop, so I have to create a distraction....like WORK!
Meanwhile, the situation with the economy has got me wondering about its chances of rebounding by the time I graduate law school. I don't want to dwell on it too much, but I'd be a fool to completely ignore it. I have decided that after dealing with and overcoming so much in order to get to the part where I could say "I'm going to law school," I'm going to move forward with my dream. I'm sure competition will be intense and the work will be hard, but it is true that anything worth having is worth the hard work. I just need to be wise in my decisions and take any and every opportunity presented during my journey in law school.
Which brings me to my question to those who are in law school now. What are your thoughts about the state of the economy, job outlook, and how is it affecting choices you're making about your education?
