I suspect that it's more to do with everyone around me wanting the same thing but I don't really know.

That is definitely it. Law school shapes what your idea of success is due to the people you surround yourself with everyday.

Nature Photo/Videographer. Leaning more towards the experiences, getting to travel and going up close with wildlife than the technical aspects though.

To find a passion for something that has a solid future in it, not quite nutty enough about music to go down that route for now. Adding strings to my bow etc. Would also like to, in 10 or so years, be able to look back on myself and say: "you know what? I wasn't a ****."

benchmark00 · 08-11-2012, 02:21 AM

A lot of work to do then.

wellAlbidarned · 08-11-2012, 02:27 AM

Theoretically, I can think "what would benchmark00 do" and just avoid whatever that is.

benchmark00 · 08-11-2012, 02:32 AM

Avoiding your mother would cause problems at home though.

Didn't know you were a lez tbh.

Indeed. Lived with a couple of law students in my second year (both female) and their law school "friends" were, by and large, an absolute shower of wankers.

The fact that most were blatantly trying to shag said hoisemates might've exaggerated the impression, but they were either braying public school ****s or relentless and slightly chippy social climbers.

Otherwise, If I had my life taken care of and could pursue anything; I've love to be able to be a writer/director and create movies.

same pinch ikki. am a film producer. but more interested in writing and directing though. have made a couple of films but nothing as good as "citizen kane" or "raging bull" yet. getting there is the ambition.
