Although my first degree is not in graphic arts, I can understand what you are saying about not enjoying the work. I worked as a pharmacist for 6 years and went back to school, then I continued to work as a pharmacist while in school and for another 2 years after finishing (the second go around). What I finally did was quit practicing all together and went back to school in a different field.

The point of this short story is just to say, that any decision you make now can always be changed later in life. I was fortunate enough to go back to school 3 times and I FINALLY ended up doing something that I really enjoy (most days ). It took me 16 years after graduating from high school, but it was worth it ...
