Banana! Banana! Banana!
I have made a revelation today. I’m not sure if I would ever return permanently to Orange County after I finish law school. My plans for the future post-school involve coming back for a time; however, ideally speaking, I prefer to end up in San Francisco working for maybe a legal non-profit organization or a big firm up there or some in-house stuff for some time. My general plan has always been to return to Orange County afterwards and hopefully work for a big firm or do some in-house legal work, but I think I would fall in love with the city very quickly and simply not return. I’m not entirely sure what brought on this revelation, but the more I think about it, the less likely it seems that I will return to Orange County permanently.
Don’t get me wrong, I love Orange County. It’s my hometown. I was born and raised there. Maybe after spending the majority of my life with some kind of educational institution tying me down to one place, wanderlust has finally kicked in. Maybe that’s it. I think right now, I just need to get out. I want to see Europe. I want to Asia. I maybe want to see Africa. I’m still a little ambivalent about going to Africa.
On the other hand, maybe I’m just dreading the coming difficult second year of law school. I don’t think I’m ready to dance the dance yet.
