Update on my school

This semester i am taking the History of Geology and the American Revolution. I was seriously excited about these two classes at the start of the semester but i don't think i realized how much work they were going to be.

For starters, Geology is AMAZING. I think i have learned more about the earth in two weeks than i have ever learned about any other subject ever. It is a lot of memorization and charts but the earth is all around you, so its hard NOT to be interested.

The American Revolution is so so so much reading. I'm finding myself wishing my textbook was on an audio CD. I have read 1 million essays that were probably written by a dictionary and every other word is 15 letters long. I love history more than anything but come on, its like they want me to fail by sucking the life out of it. I like to study the passion of the people, not a 20 page long essay about the rational explanation of why the revolution occurred through the eyes of a dictionary. I will muddle through it some how, better get to reading!
