3. I plan to go into the field that I was working in over the summer,
I no longer have any illusions as to what I am going to be signing up for.

5. Law, I was able to get hooked up with a pretty nice firm
so for the last two summers I have been going out to SF to work for them. Last summer we ended up getting swamped with a pretty high profile case so I pretty much worked around the clock.
