So many decisions, AH! I have only just entered 12th Grade and already our Guidance Counselors have been pushing us to make the biggest decision in our lives so far. The Major decision of which College to apply to AND what career we will major in. I am considering Law. I know there are many years involved in the process of becoming a Lawyer, but the rush I get from imagining myself defending a client in a Courtroom is so indescribable. The next decision is which area of Law I want to specialize in. I know that Family, Bankruptcy and Criminal Law are some of the bigger specialties, but how am I to know which one I will still be satisfied with in let’s say twenty years down the line. I guess with Family Law I would deal with just that. Family issues, divorce, adoption, and well those are the first that come to mind. In Bankruptcy Law I would deal with either someone who made a dumb investment or someone who unfortunately luck hasn’t been very kind to and I don’t know how often I would get the thrill of a courtroom battle. In Criminal Law I would be dealing with criminals and I just cannot picture myself dealing with all that. Well, unless I figure out something else I think I have made my decision. I thought my Mom was nuts when she told me ‘write what you feel’ and it would ‘all come to you’. Wow. I guess I should take her word into consideration more often, on the other hand – maybe not!
