I feel the same way. I find that there's little more interesting than the flexibility of language. I'd take classes about English composition to study the many ways of expressing my ideas and beliefs through words over a medical class any day. The open-ended nature of the English language has always captivated me far more than any class about numbers and facts ever could.
I see. I have a problem about not reading everthing and getting the wrong idea sometimes. But I still think the intricities of the human body and the ability to speak in multiple languages to be more interesting than your average English class. I see your point though. English can be interesting.
