<p>I'm a junior right now, and the upcoming summer is going to be the most important one in college. I was planning to go on a summer program my university has to Russia because I'm learning Russian and I feel like the only way I can ever hope to be really good at it is to get out of the classroom and into a Russian environment.</p>
<p>However, the program mainly attracts rising freshmen and sophomores. I can take the advanced courses there and finish my Russian language requirements for the major, and spend senior year taking top level Russian seminars. But I don't know, I just feel like I may be wasting a summer hanging out with underclassmen while my peers are out there getting "real experience". I did intern at a big law firm last semester, so I do have something to put on my resume.</p>
<p>I'll probably go to law school, so job experience isn't that important to me as it is to other people. But still, what should I do?</p>
<p>How is this even a hard decision? Any opportunity to travel abroad while doing something productive is deffinitely worth taking advantage of. I think it would look way better on a resume too.</p>
<p>You already have intern experience with a law firm, so I would say to take the opportunity and travel to Russia. You don't really get chances like that often.</p>
<p>Yeah go to Russia. You can work for rest of your life. LOL I might goto Mongolia this summer because I have to get an internship next semester anyhoo so going to work and do weird things this summer I think.</p>
