I'm really not interested in the conventional college courses. Is that the only choice? Art is cool, but I'm marginally talented at best. I don't think I could make a living with it.
I really want to start an antiques & oddities business. And I think it would be way cool to be an occult specialist. But where do you learn stuff like that? And what would I do with the education? I suppose I could join a paranormal investigation group. But that probably wouldn't pay the bills.
Nothing that I'm interested in is actually useful. Like folklore. You can get a degree in that, but unless you become a professor and teach it, you'd probably end up delivering pizzas. That would suck beyond words.
Why can't I just poof into one of my fantasy novels? D;
