You're still still in College man. It's too early to move in with any GF. I mean what if you move in, then 6 months later break up? You'd be GF-lessmand homeless. Both of which would impact you at a critical point in your college career.

/My 2 cents.

I wish I were still in college. I graduated in 2013 :lol: The GF and roommate are two separate things. I'm counting down the days until I can move out of my current apartment (rooming with 3 others). GF I have been dating since October and she's been GF since February, but I broke up with her once before. I think I've already made up my mind, though.

If you're a lawyer you probably have a good head on your shoulders. I got married half way through university and had my first child on the way two years later in my last year of school. Getting hitched young and having kids right away really screwed me over career wise and financially, but my wife is amazing (and gorgeous) and my kids are all going to be great people. I wouldn't change a thing. My point is, if you have doubts right now you'll make the right choice.

Remember, if you graduated only 3 years ago, this is still open period for free agency.

I graduated college in May and having a LOT of anxiety about my future. Everyone has been encouraging me to attend law school, but I don't want to wait another 3 years to get my life started. I have the grades and skills for it, and the debt won't be too bad because my mom makes pennies, but I went to a private college and my debt is around 60k already. Any law-school goers with advice? I'm not too sure I want to be an attorney, but I like a lot of the skills it teaches and how good it looks on a resume.

I dont really have the time for video games too often these days but very excited they are releasing Skyrim for PS4. Basically the only game I have been craving a remaster for. Should be awesome. Already pre-ordered actually something I haven't done in years. MAss Effect Andromeda will also be pre ordered at some point. Starting Uncharted 4 today which is the first game I've played besides Madden since FAllout was released

Damn, I haven't played Uncharted since 2 I think. :lol: Is it still an immensely beautiful game?

It is! Probably the best looking in game experience to date. If you have a PS4 you should give it a whirl. Uncharted 3 for PS3 is also great as well as the Last of Us which is basically Uncharted.

Ahh, okay then. It's Uncharted 3 that I have. It's been awhile since I've been on my PS3. These days I prefer mobile games more. GPX on those platforms (at least in iOS) are PS3 worthy (just look at the latest Infinity Blade, Wipeout, Assassin's Creed Pirates, Final Fantasy IV, Injustice Gods Among Us, Sky Gamblers, CSR Racing, or Galaxy On Fire :D ).

I am not an attorney but if you don't think being an attorney is for you don't do it. It is bad enough you already have 60k of debt you don't need another 80-100k on top. That will not help your anxiety at all. If you just graduated and I'm guessing you are 20-23 you still have plenty of time to decide on your future. Spend the next year looking into all fields, get a good starter job somewhere that interests you and make your decision from there. Never listen to anyone but yourself about your life since you are the one living it.

If you enjoyed Uncharted I highly recommend you check out the Last of Us. It was made by the same developer Naughty dog so the engine and mechanics are practically the same. I enjoyed it quite a bit more. The writing is fantastic. If you look it up you will see it has won tons of goty awards etc. You could probably pick it up new for under $20 as well which is well worth it

Im in law school now.
If you dont care to take the LSAT and drop a few hundred on applications fees it could be worth applying to school and seeing what scholarship offers come to you (if you have good grades, and strong LSAT score you'll get offers). I was on the fence on what I want to do, took the LSAT, applied, got a nice offer and now I'm in law school and loving it.
