If you hate it and think it's boring now, don't do it. You'll end up regretting the money and time you spent studying for and working at something you hate. 40+ hours a week is a long time to work at a job you despise, I can tell you (although it was more of my bullying coworkers than the job itself in my case).

I quit, went back to school for my masters (yep, 2 of 'em) and instead of following my heart, I went for library science and health studies and i can't find jobs in either. I went for l.s. b/c it was supposed to be easy to find jobs (it isn't--it's flooded and they lied about all the projected retirement of the old people, who are keeping the jobs) and people kept telling me it suited me and my personality to work there (even though I wasn't all that interested in being a librarian, I thought well I'll give it a try).

I also did health studies for medical librarianship and to be a health educator. i still think it's more interesting that ls, but still can't find a job due to my lack of medical credentials--it seems like they want at least a nursing background for this, which is NO for me, not spending another 10,000 or more on this--I'm epically not suited to be a nurse.

And I still haven't found a job even though I graduated in 2008. I'm either over-or under-qualified for being a secretary, cashier, etc. And i still owe $20,000 in student loans, which, fyi, if you don't know, you can never got out of repaying even if you declare bankruptcy. I despise living w/my mother. I'm starting work as a manicurist next week (won't love it, but it'll pay the bills, i hope--I'm an introvert and this calls for salesmanship and extroversion, not looking that forward to it).

So make it worth it. pursue what you love and network like hell as a student. Get on mailing lists and see what's out there--they'll be more honest than the people trying to convince you to do the program (government websites, the school your at, etc.). Do your research now before you commit to the loans.
