Apparently I don't need to become more knowledgeable about grammar, because then it only makes it painful when I read poorly-phrased Writer's Block questions . . .

. . . but, honestly, I'd love to become knowledgeable in everything-- and anything. I like to learn, and I am not terribly picky about what I learn. It's like when I say I would accept a ticket to any country in the entire world; if presented with the opportunity to study (without having to excel on tests), I'll study any subject. All of my life I've *gotten lost* in dictionaries and encyclopedias, distracted by terms and subjects I'd never known before but found myself seizing the opportunity to study. I continue the tradition on Wikipedia and even YouTube, wandering onto playlists about subjects ranging from introductory magic to caring for dreadlocks. If I am ignorant on a subject and am presented with the opportunity to remedy that, I take it. You never know when it might come in handy, and it just gives me a much richer picture of the world around me.

However, if I were to choose to enroll in long-term formal study for a new subject right now (not including the Japanese and Education I have focused and continue to focus on), I would probably study:
1) Psychology/psychiatry.
2) Another foreign language.
3) Meteorology with a focus on storm research.
4) Astronomy and physics, but only if I did not have to excel in the subject and could just learn for the heck of it with no competition for jobs, etc. I would love to be some sort of theoretical physicist, the kind that studies concepts so wild and out there that little concrete math is possible-- but to get to that point, I would have to do all sorts of crazy mathematics that would probably make my head explode.
5) History. Big problem is, I don't have a huge preference regarding the location and era of history I study O.o I find myself interested in most of it.
