| It seems to me that archkid will not settle for the second best, so she needs to look at every aspect holistically. Yes, you will work your butt off in school, what's even worse is that you will work three times that hard if you are determined to be the best and learn from the best.
Three big lessons I have learned from my first-hand experience are:
1. Money will save you at least ten years of time. And traveling will broaden your horizon.
2. In order to SURVIVE in this business, a gal needs to be " a chick with a dick" to keep up with her male collegues. A Spartan lass is prefered.
3. "Architects are prostitutes." is no joke. At your best, you are a geisha. |
