So you are able to go anywhere to learn anything. Would you go to cooking school in France like Julia Child? Would you attent Harvard's business school. What would you want to study, and where? MIT? I don't have a preference for myself. I can't think of anything in particular that I would want to study in a specific place.

I would love to study archeology in Iraq or Iran or the Holy Land, except... I would want to do it without any body shooting at anybody else...

In Israel would be ideal for me. I am fascinated by that country, and what used to be their country before it was divided up into other countries.

the bit is that around here archeology is ONLY Central American, you really can't find a school that teaches anything else - maybe some local digs and the like, but...

As an undergraduate, I would love to go to Wharton School of Business in Philadelphia (part of the University of Pennsylvania). It's the best undergraduate business school in the world, and I've been there once...it's beautiful. Also, Philly is a lovely city (almost as great, but not quite, as Boston...except for Boston's unfortunate baseball team). And two other words... Philadelphia Cheesesteak. xD

Oh I do, I have always wanted to study Criminal Justice. To become an inverstigator. If only we could go back in our lives and do it again, it is too late for me now. But when you are young and want some kind of training, you should find the way to make it happen, later in life you will always regret that you didn't get to persue what you really wanted to be. There are so many chances now a days for the young kids, chances that we didn't get growing, I envy them so much.

Well I wouldn't have to go to France to study French cooking as I self-taught myself about thirty years ago, and I wasn't inspired by Julia Child but Jacques Pepin--hey maybe instead of the Juila & Julie project, I should cook my way through all of my Pepin's cookbooks...LOL--but heck maybe going to France on the premise of learning how to cook would be a good excuse to go to France

My brother sent his wife to Italy to learn how to cook Italian! She had a great time! I have never gotten to eat her Italian though....she has made lots of other things but not Italian.

I used to love watching people do that in Branson, Missouri. We used to vacation there a lot when I was growing up. It was awesome.

I wouldn’t mind spending some time in France; forget the cooking; I just want to learn French from the locals. Best way to learn a new language is by living in the country for a while and if the locals happen to handsome Frenchmen I say...Bonus

I wouldn't mind taking a class on singing. To get my vocal sounds more in key.

You start some interesting discussions yourself, keep it up. This is a hard one to answer to, hm. I'd probably study in an european prestiged university, either in France and Germany and I'd doctorate on political affairs. It's something that really fascinates me but as I haven't been born in an influential family nor am thaaaaat of much of a genius, it's sort of impossible to fullfill in my lifetime. Maybe on the next one then ;)

Yes, when one is not born into money, it is very hard to realize a dream that one carries in their heart.

I think I would rahter study close to home than to have to travel somewhere to do so. I am not sure what I would want to study either so that makes it a bit harder for me to decide also.

Hi my friend Ambie Pam. I would like to study at the University of Sydney in Australia. It is my favorite city so it would be excellent to live there and study for a year or two. I would study something I am interested in like Education. Maxine. My baby Amber shows she likes art so perhaps she will study the History of Art when she is older.

I think I'd have to say the same thing. I don't know what I'd want to study and where. Though I do have courses I want to take, I guess I'd have to say there's nothing recreational I'd want to learn, or any particular place I'd want to learn it.

I want to finish PhD in Management (Public or Business) and/or a degree in English. Where? I am hoping to take in a very good University in the city, abroad is an option too as long as I get scholarship. Vocational education-wise, I want to take up photography and some computer-related courses like photo-imaging, etc.

Being an undergraduate in an African country studying computer science and information technology i would love to study in the UK because they really have good education centres but the WEB is still the best place to learn. It is cheaper, everybody can afford surfing the net. By the way is there anything you search for not found on the internet?

Well, i would love to study ancient history in Alexandria, Egypt... in the ancient times it held the biggest library in the world but a lot of the books were destroyed when part of it was submerged under water... but there are some that are still equally interesting to study... but of course i would need to learn how to read latin and other ancient languages that these books were written...

Hello AmbiePam. I graduated from college deacdes ago, but I have a dream to graduate from postgraduate which is hard for me to realize as I have a family to support. What is more, I am no longer young to study for it at university. I don't have energy and enough money for it. I have to work for my family. Otherwise I would like to spend time working hard for it to pass the exams. Now I can only wish my son to have this dream of mine come true some day.

Hi AmbiePam, hope you are fine. I pop in now or then since I recently started my own Traffic Exchange. So your question about where I would go to learn new stuff. Well, since internet is in my home, but I can access lots of new things to learn from any corner of the world, I of course use internet to do so. And to start a new program where I almost have no skills I also turn to friends who has their own program already or search for the information I need. Have a nice day
