It's Too Late

If you hate your life, it's probably too late to do anything about it.  You sealed your fate in high school when you chose ceramics over Mandarin and decided on Lehigh instead of even considering something outside of Pennsylvania.  Once your life is on a trajectory, it's pretty hard to change directions, unless you're okay with making significantly less money than your brothers or being photoshopped out of family photos.

Changing your life is easier if most of your family's dead or you're adopted because no one's really paying attention to you.
