Thanks a lot for your comment, it's really reassuring to know someone else in my case.

Honestly Law isn't really my "thing" either. It was just convenient and well-paying.

You're right, I was just terrified that I'll hate my life if I do CS

not to mention, with CS you have the freedom of easy to go anywhere in the world to work, granted you have a visa or a work permit of some sort. With Law its more tricky since different jurisdictions require you to pass exams first to make sure you know how the law works in that particular country. Just something to think about.
That. Is absolutely what I want and have been thinking about. It could be worth doing CS just for this alone. The only high-paying field that doesn't need you to chain yourself to any place.

Thanks a lot, this is a crucial point and good to hear it from someone with the same background as I.
