*is glomped* Oof!
Hiya sweet kitty! Missed ya! I'd almost come over and help you with work so you have more time to come play with me. >_<
*huggles Sane and gives her a bellyrub* Can we play the game where you throw me up in the air again? Or do you want to just snuggle for a while?
It is almost bedtime for me...

Hey, sweeties.

Boy, that Obama fella can sure rock a block party.

Hiya Sis! Will you join the cuddling heap? ^_^

I don't know what a block party is, but Obama rocks anyway. Yay!

My mouth aches. Why do I have to wait another week before I can go to the dentist? And why will I have probably have to wait at least another month but very likely more to get my stupid wisdom tooth out? I want it gone, 'cause it hurts. *is whining*

*sigh*

I hate making life decisions.

See, I have (almost) a master's degree in Irish History and Politics. Which is great. But there aren't any jobs in it. The job market is so tight right now and I just can't find any type of work in my field.

So I'm thinking of going to law school. It was always one of my options, and I'd come out qualified for jobs (instead of just more school), but I'm a little nervous.

Comments?

How long will Law School take? And what would you do about your Masters? Will you finish it part-time?
Can you afford to go to Law School? Would you actually like being a lawyer or whatever in that field? Is it quite certain you'd be able to get a job or are you just guessing?

Try making a list of the pro's and the con's objectively and then another one subjectively. Write them out and compare those and you'll have your answer. Most of the time.

There's no way of becoming a professor or something in that field?

Good luck!

To me it seems that what you've studied of Politics (Irish and other) would be a good background for Law School, even though it wouldn't qualify for any part of said school.

I'm sure you will like the reading, and I know that you can do the writing assignments that are put to you (even if you do some of them at rather unorthodox times - or not so unorthodox for students? )

Then what to do about that unfinished master's degree?
If it will come in handy for your work at some point, is there any possibility for you to get back to it then?

Law school is ferocious expensive. REALLY.

Become a paralegal, which is employable, and get a job. Then you can decide to starve in pursuit of a law degree, if the idea still excites you and you inherit money.

*Walks into the Café, leaving a trail of water and wet, orange autumn leaves and sits down to enjoy something really good, whatever it might be that we serve tonight*

My hair is dripping wet.. and it's cold outside, though not as cold as I thought it would be. The downside with waitering until 3am is that it's impossible to sleep afterwards yet what do you do at 3am in the morning! Besides signing into Entmoot

Hehe, well thanks to those who have wished me early happy birthdays I got the automated message from Entmoot this morning so that was nice.

So far been an eventful birthday morning... up just before 8, birthday crumpet and tea, and then to the emergency dental place with the fiance to see about his problem... and then to the pharmacy for his prescription...

And now I am tired and I am going to lay down for a birthday snuggle and then eat cake... but I'll be back later!
