Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

A lot of people tend to want to study things they're interested in, even if it doesn't lead to a high paying job. You said yourself she was interested in English literature so that's why she went with that as her major. It's also a lot easier to learn and study something you actually care about than something you find boring or are just doing it to get paid. Like if I went to college, I'd find film studies classes or possibly some math ones way more for me cause I like that stuff, but if you tried to force me to take classes to become a doctor, lawyer, or trade school I'd flunk out hard and/or struggle to even get a passing grade.
