Shoot, Jeana. I didn't even know I COULD go to law school. I grew up in a family where girls were supposed to grow up lilly white pure and marry and have a houseful of kids and enjoy life after they were widowed and left a lot of money. Now, if you don't think Goody is a screw up, think again because she didn't do any of those things in the right order. But law school would have definitely been fun. And if I had, I would have definitely been a prosecutor.
I remember when I was young and waiting tables for a living, I hated the drunks who would come in after hours. I'd hold the empty coffee cup about two inches from the table and drop it so it would make a loud bang right next to the head that was laying on the table and stinking up the place. Jerk that sucker awake, it would! LOL! No, I wasn't cut out for waitressing and it didn't last long.
Gosh, I even remember cops coming in and lecturing me on staying faithful to my wayward young husband who sure wasn't being faithful to me nor was he putting any food on the table. It seemed that the mood in general back then was against women, no matter which way you shuffled the deck. Shoot, I didn't know until I became disabled that there were grants and school loans specifically designed to help students who aren't fresh out of high school go to school. If I had, I would have gone long, long before I did. Even worse when I was in California, college was free......and I didn't know it. It never occured to me that I could go to school without having thousands of dollars to pay for it.
Fortunately girls are more informed today. In fact, most of us in general are. We now that getting married and having kids is not the only thing we were born for. I am just happy that the couple of years I was able to attend were so fruitful. If I could say anything to any girl on this forum, it would be to GET YOUR EDUCATION! NOTHING, ABSOLUTELY NOTHING, CAN REPLACE A GOOD EDUCATION. We can't predict the future but we can be prepared for it.
