• The Worst

  The worst thing is when you think that you're doing ok and in reality you're not. That's exactly how I felt today when I went to pick up my law paper. I hate studying law but this was one of the subjects that I actually didn't mind. Maybe I even liked it a little. Now I think i'll go back to hating it. Apparently, I missed out on a whole chunk of the paper and therefore handed in an incomplete assignment. Law markers aren't exactly nice people, but this one decided to scrawl all over my paper 'MAJOR issues not dealt with!'

  All this has brought me back to the 'seriously thinking about dropping law' mode that I go into quite frequently. I'm studying law with psychology- which is what I really want to do as a career. My parents have quite happily accepted the fact that I won't become a lawyer, however they still want me to take it (oh no, Asian parents). I don't see how studying law will help my psych career. I don't really want to become a forensic psychologist- so I can rule that one out. I really hate the thought of having to survive (and pass) another 3.5years of law- just for the sake of getting the degree. I don't want to make the decision but I know the longer I put it off, the harder it will to pull out.

  Any opinions are very welcome!
