Yes, I want to learn. The main reason why is a mix of nihilism and wanting to validate my myself through learning.

I already have a degree in History and I feel like studying and remembering the past really hasn't helped me develop myself as a person, as much as I've liked the subject at school, college and uni.

What I really want to learn though? Programming. Have you ever had that awe-inspiring idea for an online business that you think could succeed, thrive and prosper but you don't have the technical know-how to build a website that can let you do just that?

Having the technical know how makes you realize how unrealistic some of your ideas may be and how much work is involved in programming. I prefer to be a dreamer sometimes.

Do it! You'll never regret it.
