Pro/Con List for Law School
This is what I have written so far on my Pro/Con List but I would love to get more.
So, talk to me world! what would be the good and bad of me going to law school and what do you think I should do? (If it works for Percarious Prof, what not me?)
PRO:
*Being able to support myself at a level of high comfort
*"Proof" of intellignece/validity of self
*Great Power to do good
*Really cool business cards
*"Ms. H___ S___ J.D.
*The stabilizing impact of legal thinking on my frequently overly abstracted mind
CON:
*Loss of self-identity
*Hours spent doing mice-type research
*High stress/pressure
*Potentially lossing all of my current close, non-familial relationships (good-bye Frankie)
*High power attorney doesn't really fit my fanatisy life, but what actually does?

I think this is a great forum for discussing these ideas w/ friends as they can post things as it strikes them...and btw...i will continue to think of pros/cons.

*sigh* Trying to figure out one's life is difficult, isn't it?
Btw, it wouldn't be goodbye darling Sparkala. I realize that it would mean that you might fall off the place of the planet for 3-4 years, but that doesn't mean our friendship stops. That isn't friendship. Know that whatever you decide, I'm your friend no matter what. *insert warm squishy feelings*
Good luck darling!
Also, my humble and ever-so-supportive opinion would be that maybe... just maybe... law school isn't for you? *bashful grin*

Does Law School excite you? Does the analysis excite you...the thinking? The "salami"?
