Lucky all of you who still get breaks. The real world never ends once you're done with school.

To be quite frank, I'd rather have no breaks and get paid, than to pay money and not get breaks. Maybe its just because I'm a work-a-holic. I envy those that have finished school and are free to just work and get paid. I am now applying to law school, and a majority of my friends are just working and I envy them. I know I have to achieve my goals, but I guess I'm just saying that it would be nice to stop paying institutions for overgeneralized information, and begin reaping the benefits.

hahaha since its coming from you, I'll definitely take that into consideration! Either way I'm just trying to enjoy my situation, but I guess its just human nature to want to be in a different situation everytime...does that make sense? Almost like wanting something you can't get, but not too that extreme.

I totally understand where you are coming from. Like Chebosto, I too wanted get out of school as soon as possible to start making money. It was great at first...buying some of the things I always wanted that I could never afford while in school, paying off some debt, feeling independent, etc. But I have been working full time for 4 years straight now (a very short period of time compared to others) without a decent break. Yeah, I get vacation time, but trust me, when you work a "9-5" job, two weeks is not nearly enough. Like Chebosto said, sometimes it's just nice to get away. When you "reap the benefits" of working, you also need time to enjoy those benefits.
