So I've been racking my brains if I should start an open degree at The Open University while keeping my job.
I'd do English and Philosophy / English and History but do not really know what I want do with it after 6 years of minimum study time.

My conflict is: Either spend all my time and money getting a degree of which I'm unsure what I'll do with it later or don't and work lousy odd jobs for the rest of my days unless a fucking miracle happens and I become published.

WWYD?
