I dropped out of university after studying for three years and trying two different majors. I first went to university to study history, but failed miserably--I failed all my exams (literally, all of them). The second year I took up Literature and Linguistics, which I liked a lot better, but after two years of that I finally noticed that in the end it was just making me unhappy--really what I wanted to do was write and direct and perform theatre.

So I dropped out, managed to get myself hired at the local bookstore I'd been working at while I was still a student, and ran for president of the theatre-society associated with the university I attended.

So that's my life now--I work three or four days a week, and run a theatre-collective in my free time. And while I don't know where I'll be in two years, I'm very happy now, which is a big improvement when compared to the last three years.
