<p>Well I have pretty clear plan in my head when if I was to take such a long break from formal schooling. My goal isn’t try and earn some cash and pay some bills. Like I want to get a chance to learn some trade or maybe find a jobs are willing hire non degree holders such as an assistant of some kind and if the next step up the ladder is a degree I’ll go back to school. The main reason I’m so confused and not sure is that. The system works very different here in Hong Kong. There’s no career counselor, no job talks, or anything. I’m a pretty OK student. Just no confidence in choosing. Btw. My parents will help pay for some (I would have to work to pay for some, get loans, etc ) of my college. They just want me to be sure I want to do this now or not. Their main worry is the same as what so many people are reporting. U come out of college only to end up as a barister.</p>
