hey /lit/ with college drawing closer the thought has been nagging me and i seek the opinions and experience of not necessarily well schooled people but wise people
Ive always been told i have a gift for writing and reading its come natural to me, when i was a kid i taught myself how to read before my first day of school and the sheer quantity of what i read would leave me miles ahead of class mates
Now that high school is nearing an end i feel like my literary talents are going to be left behind (since im planning to focus on science seeing as im somewhat of a small scale "renaissance man")
What should i do with these literary talents?
i don't mean reading its a given that im going to continue that passion
I mean how can i utilize these skills to get the most out of them in my rapidly approaching adult life?

i dont know if im overeating or not if so feel free to sage in all fields

I gotta say, that's a pretty ingenious intellectual whoring strategy. Sure beats tutoring IRL dumbfucks, let me tell you from experience.

"Look, it's just the quadratic formula. Seriously. You just put A here, B here, C here."
"Oh, ok."
"Then see where this has A, B, and C?"
"Yeah."
"You put them there."
"Then what?"
...
sigh...
"Just plug it in the calculator."
"Oh, cool!"
"Yeah, calculators sure are nifty..."
"Wait, so how do I do this one?"
"The same way."
"But it's a decimal."
...
sigh...
"A is .3. B is .5. C is .7. They're all tenths."
"Ok."
...
sigh...
"So they're representing tenths of one. The first is three tenths, the second is 5 tenths, the third is 7 tenths."
"Oh. Right. So what does that mean?"
...
sigh...
"You multiply them by 10."
"Oh! Wow! You really know your stuff!"
...
"Yeah, thanks."
