Iā€™m gonna expect youā€™re gonna be more inactive this week to study, right?
My history class is very easy, but I really like it. (Honors in my grade doesnā€™t mean much, at least for history)

Indeed I am.

Is AP as bad as Iā€™ve heard it is?

US history in general.

Tons of studying but it is worth it.

You ever get into the History Bee?

World and US History classes sort of bore me. Itā€™s usually just ā€œThis country didnā€™t like this countryā€™s vibe, so they invaded.ā€ However, as soon as you delve deeper, and start to look into history on your own via nonfiction books, history is siiiiiick.

Nah.

It would destroy me for sure.

Usually the AP test is easy because I go off of recognition and hints. Going off of the top of my head is hard.

Yeahā€¦
There was one kid who answered the questions faster than I could think.
Not even kidding.
Iā€™m slightly scared by those people.

I didnā€™t memorize anything.
Iā€™m just a history buff.

I have the AP Euro test Friday as well. Honestly, my only regret with that course was not being able to cover all European history, not just Renaissance and beyond. Of course, thereā€™s no way we could do thart in a year with sufficient detail in a high school setting.

But yeah, I often find that my favorite parts of history are the ones Iā€™m currently studying, especially if itā€™s heavy in war and politics. Understandably, Iā€™m fascinated by European history.

(Those crazy Europeans.)

Otto von Bismark anyone?

I think this man was one of the more instrumental players in setting up WW1.

Please close this topic before a fight starts.

Do we need to switch the discussion to ancient history, then?

No, that also can start a fight.

Ancient Rome FTW! though the monguls were more powerful.
