The Graduate

Sorry; I forgot I had a blog for a few days. I remember now.

So while I was away, I decided to give up on my dreams of ever not hating The Real World (the real Real World, that is, completely unaffiliated with MTV) and go back to school. I've only ever been happy when I've had something to study, anyhow.

My dad thinks I should go to law school. My mom thinks I should go to business school. I sort of think I should get my Master's in some ridiculous nonsense like creative writing. A decision needs to be made soon mostly because I'm eager to go buy a prep book so I can ace whatever test I need, but shall it be LSAT prep, GMAT prep or GRE prep? Decisions, decisions. Here's the breakdown:

Law School:
Main reason to go: I'm destined. The courtroom a-beckons.
Main reason not go to: I hear it's hard, or something.
What I base all my knowledge on: Ally McBeal
Likelihood of having to wear a suit for a living: High
Amount of money in the profession: $$$

Business School:
Main reason to go: All my friends who majored in business have jobs
Main reason not to go: The idea of being a businesswoman makes me feel ill
What I base all my knowledge on: My dad; the season of Dawson's Creek where Pacey became a stockbroker
Likelihood of having to wear a suit for a living: Moderate to high
Amount of money in the profession: $$

Ridiculous discipline like Creative Writing School:
Main reason to go: I like writing; I want to pursue something creative
Main reason not to go: Is it really wise for anyone to get a Master's in Creative Writing?
What I base all my knowledge on: My imagination... get it?
Likelihood of having to wear a suit for a living: Very low, then moderate to high once I realize I can't make a living as a creative writer and have to get one of those business jobs that make me cringe
Amount of money in the profession: $

Other Options:
Library science school; graphic design school; clown school; Hogwarts

If one of you kind readers would be so good as to make all my decisions for me, I'd greatly appreciate it. In fact, if one of you could also fill out my FAFSA and track down a couple of college professors who actually remember me to write me recommendations, that would be just tops. I'd love you forever.
