Guys I'm freaking out
I’m going to keep this as succinct as possible
So like since I was in early high school I felt 100% certain I wanted to be a lawyer
I’m good at it
I’ve considered other careers but I always came back to it
Because I think I’m smart and creative enough to do other stuff but
What else is there?
And now I’ve dug myself into a hole
For the past year or two
