Weird or fantastical courses you would take?

I've always wanted to take a course in the History of Fairytales and Greek and Roman Mythology. It would also be cool to take a course in Interplanetary Diplomacy, History of Medieval Castles

I've taken numerous courses on myths, iconography, pre-christian cultures, a feminist history of Grimm's Fairy Tales, a literature course called "Monsters and Mad Men" all at my university, plus I went to art school, which is more or less, "Someone Be As Bizarre As Possible While Naked... Everyone Else, Quick, Paint It!"

I feel like my schooling was already pretty weird. :/


But if I could learn anything at all:
"How to Apparate"
"How to Breathe Under Water"
"An Accurate History, as Taught by Ghosts"
"Magical Curing Plants of the World"

Per @Wonky Oracle 's post:
Does anyone remember when Tonks told Harry she never bothered to perfect her household charms? When I read that I thought, "OMG!!! Why???!!!!" Why would you not learn ways to make cleaning easier and faster?
 
How to be a domestic goddess, I would pay thousands of dollars for that course. Seriously.

Oh, and a History of Mermaids

I've made a willow basket, and I can assure you it's difficult enough out of water.

A friend of mine makes Willow coffins and baskets. It took me nearly two days to make this. I was mightily relieved when it was finished, and vowed to leave it at that!002.webp

I do love it though, it's ideal for Chantilly mushroom foraging, one of my favourite pastimes!

As long as it's separate Black Hole's we're talking about, I'll allow it.

Now, I want to think of a whole bunch of punny course titles that push the limit. But I won't. :mthumb:
