im gonna be a lawyer?

random fact about me #2: i currently am a second year at UGA, the university of georgia.

the other week, i applied to the business school to be a finance major.
im settled with finance major and im kinda pumped but not really. i havent taken any finance classes, so thats a big reason why im iffy. (you cant take any unless its your major).
i realize it would be a very fruitful career, though. and i like math, so im sure ill like it once i dive into it.

but right now, im in a legal studies class. and im loving it. i am actually reading my textbook.. and on the weekend!! and if you know me, this is an ultra rare occasion to be reading textbooks. i dred it.
and i only do homework on sundays, but this past saturday i was reading my legal studies and taking notes like an actual hardworking student. it was mind blowing.

i have always been interested in being a lawyer, but i always figured the school is just way to freakin hard and intense and i wouldnt be able to get myself to do the reading and work required.

however, ever since last week, i have seriously been considering getting on the route to be a lawyer. it suddenly just struck me as something completely interesting and exciting.
i would be a contract lawyer, definitely not a court lawyer.
&& i would hopefully get to do something international because im almost fluent in spanish and im starting on french.

what exactly excites me about it, you ask?
well, for one, i crave creative logic. i love solving problems and figuring things out. i have always been one for mathematics.
second, i also found that i enjoy english. i never enjoyed it till i got to college and found out that im actually good at writing lol. in high school, it was always about literature, which i hate. but i do enjoy the composition part of english. & i figure lawyers probably need to know how to write papers.
third, i will be required to interact and deal with people. which always interests me. (but i will also have time to myself when i am researching a law or code, which will be nice).
fourth, a lawyer with a finance undergrad? ill be unstoppable!!


so, my new life goal: to be a finance undergrad, then go to law school. become a contract lawyer for a big international corporation. and be super hot and fashionable while doing it. (bump boring work suits, hence the polyvore pic above).
