I was in college until age 28. Learned 3 languages, spent 6 years in the military, have an associate in information technology, an unfinished bachelor degree in math and at age 29 I started working as a contractor (couldn't get hired back then in 2004) and worked 5 years for home improvement which went out the door last year due to nobody wants to fix their houses anymore and now I'm a big nobody, because nobody wants to hire me.

That's how far all that education and military took me. I kinda realized, that USA does not need intelligence anymore, they settle for idiots here.

I would have continued to graduate school right after undergraduate - instead of waiting until now to pursue a graduate degree!...

I have some sort of a phobia, that I have a problem looking at blood and open wound. I get sick from it. I literally would walk out of the house if someone would be watching those surgery medical channels on tv, because I would probably throw up. I can't even look at if someone cuts his finger. It was partially the reason I didn't continue my career in the military.

I don't think that I would have changed anything so far... still working on all the degrees that I want....

It's tough ohwell

I think that I wish that I wasn't first generation... so that I would have had a little knowledge and background going into it. So, that I might have made better decisions in my earlier part of my education... and known what I was getting into.

I would have finished law school instead of becoming a cop.

I would have gone for pre-pharmacy (and then straight to pharmacy school) instead of psychology or just scrapped all of it. I thought all I'd need is a bachelors to get a job out of college -_-
