Well, I won't be going to school to be a stock broker or anything like that... my interest has always been in the Arts and HUmanities, however as I age and all my friends are sitting around with their art degrees, I realize I am almost glad I didnt finish college as another art student.
Many of my friends graduated and have art degrees that are just about worthless unless they go back and specialize in something that utilizes that knowledge (web design or something) - but me, I was more into Sociology, Anthropology etc...
If I had to choose a major today it would be Sociology and I would not worry about all those fine art classes i was so adamant about taking when I was younger. I wanted to just sit around and paint, I worked as volunteer at art centers and thought that would be my life.
But now, as I aim to simply finish my education and better myself without any real goal or purpose other than getting rid of the regret of dropping out, I seem to put more emphasis on the study of society and humanity.
I've been thinking a lot about focusing on community, drug polict and its effects on society etc... when you start looking into Sociology there is so much I just want to learn about, with no reason or purpose.
Just to learn.
