Comes down to your definition of 'really sucks'.
For me, if you get something out of it, learn something new, see something different, meet someone interesting - then it doesn't really suck!
You will find out what is out there, be able to make enquiries, drop off your CV at places that interest you. You will meet other people doing the same thing - and be able to check their experiences and they may give you good ideas. Then - you walk outside and you are in one of the great cities of the world, with a massive variety of food, good bookshops, places of interest.
HOW can it totally suck??
