Poking at academia

I’ve been saying I’m going to go to college for a while now. The closest community college annexed our county, so now that I can get in-district rates, there’s really no reason why I shouldn’t. (Especially since I do pay property taxes now.) It’s just, you know. Actually doing it.

Right now I’m leaning toward an Art History degree with a minor in Literature, with the end goal of studying the intersection of myth, fairytales, and folklore; and art. I want to take some science classes too, everyone should be more science-literate, IMHO. I want to focus on botany and conservation, because NATURE, SO COOL, AM I RIGHT?

The weather right now is gross and the air is full of allergens; therefore I have been thoroughly zombified for the last couple days and have not done anything toward my various projects, except for the morning when I spent several hours downloading every available book about Mesopotamian history on archive.org. There’s something so fun about hunting down research material.

It’s organizing them afterwards that’s the PITA.
