There really are some hilarious courses out there. Going to uni for the sake of going to uni.

Quite scary to think I finish mine in about 6 months...

Yep. If it wasn't going to laden you with so much debt I could understand, but if you're getting a degree which won't be that helpful to get a good job you best enjoy the experience of university, as it's costing a lot.

Calculus isn't real

Well, depending on what you're going into anyway.

Studying a Shakespearean play of my choice for my year 8 English class.

Thinking of doing King Lear.

 

[barmyarmy]

Lear is ok but why not be a bit more left field and do Winters Tale or Merchant of Venice or something?

Maybe. The fact that King Lear is based on a legend involving a mythological Pre-Roman Celtic King captivated me from the on-set. I have no clue what the Winter Tale or the Merchant of Venice is about though.

 

[barmyarmy]

Well as you have an internet connection I'm sure you can find out.
Winter's Tale has the immortal stage direction in it:
"exit, pursued by a bear"

Beat that

Merchant of Venice is quite good. I studied that when I was 14/15 and found it pretty easy to get to grips with, so you might want to give that a go.
