hey /advice/,
So in my undergraduate career I was in a toxic relationship and I was persuaded to NOT study abroad in London for a whole year, in order to "save the relationshit". I was about 22 at the time, and I am now 25 years old, in an expensive graduate school. I have since broken up with the douchebag, but now I am stuck with a life that I don't like.
Is there any way I can go study abroad, or do something abroad for about 6 months to a year to experience a new culture? This is the biggest regret of my life, and when I hear other folks talking about their studying abroad experiences, or moving to America from Europe, or any sorts of long term travels, I get angry that I didn't take the opportunity.
I really regret my choice. Can I take a leave of absence from graduate school, and go to Europe for that year?...I just feel like I am making the wrong choices, and I want to be able to do what I want to do.
I am already 25 years old, and am not getting any younger. I don't want to make decisions too late in my life, and lead a life that I utterly hate.
I am in pharmacy school currently, but I am not completely happy. I would like to do peace corps after I graduate pharmacy school and volunteer abroad for a few years and get off the grid for a bit. I have always loved languages, and loved learning about other cultures in undergrad, but I never got to pursue this path.
How do I do this?... I want to lead a better life people. I am stick, but we all know that we are not trees; we are allowed to move about as we please.
