Advice about continuing education...?

Alright, so here is my dilemma. Ive tried college twice, first in 07 and then again in 08 - The first year I took an Art course that I thought I would enjoy and make a living out of, in the end it turned out to be an entire waste of money. I ended up dropping out two months in. I worked the rest of that year, and then decided to try again. This time I enrolled for an Esthetics course... it was mostly just filler, and to please my parents - and also I was worried that I wouldnt get another chance at college. So I enrolled, and was in the course for about three months, and I started having family trouble (got kicked out of my parents house) and then got into a car accident which took my transportation options away (school was about an hour away from where i lived). Anyways, I had no choice but to drop out yet again, which totally turned my life upside down in the way that I felt like I couldnt accomplish anything.


I am now living with my boyfriend (we've been together for a year now), and I am looking for a job, but Im also thinking about school again for the future. I really want to go to University but I have no idea what to take! Ive been wracking my brain for months trying to figure this out.. I just cant seem to get ANYTHING!


Its so frustrating.. does any one else know what this is like? Or have any advice?








Extra Information:


I absolutely love art, writing, and photography.


I need a course that has substance, like theory, history and lectures.. (weird I know)


I need something that I can make a living out of.
