Meiac09 is on a distinguished road
I'm working and going to school right now, and I'll tell you two things: I don't sleep much, and theory doesn't get you the job, the random experiences and connections do.

More than once my best opportunities have come out of an activity or a project I'm doing for class. That landed my current job which I think is pretty decent for a college kid. I work in Community Relations for a healthcare system. I'm glad for the experience but I also learned what I don't want to do. I really don't like health care.

That said, my parents have gone through dramatic career changes (Airline Pilots in past life, now small business owners) and there have been challenges, but they did pretty well for living in an isolated economy like Maine. I say go for it, it might me a challenge, but whats life if you don't love what you do? Try stuff! I know its a lot easier to get out of bed when I'm working on events than when I have 8:30 physics.

My school thinks you should get married before you can drink. Whats the point of a wedding without booze?!

This all said, TGIF. Time to meet up with friends.
