Anyone here who studied an art or “soft” degree do you regret it or love it?

Regardless of how it went, I was so emotionally immature at the time (not sure what else to call it), that even though it was a case of a serious waste of potential, there's nothing in the world that would have made me do an ounce of proper work, use the time between 16-21 for something more useful again etc. So I just limped through a shit degree in the same way I did with GCSEs & A-levels, hoping that I could scrape results with no work.

So the only thing I regret is somehow not growing up a bit faster, and making something of those years. On the other hand, spending your youth playing as much sport as possible, drinking a lot of beer, and having sex with plenty of women....it wasn't all bad!!!

In summary, I'd probably do it differently if I could, but I can't. Coulda woulda shoulda, not a healthy way to live.
