I'm starting to forget alot of shit that once upon a happy time in my life, I actually knew in-depth. I (think?!) am starting to come to terms with it. I should be alright with it, because history is about learning something about God, government, Truth and not making the same mistakes as your predecessors. It's not about learning facts, but I want to remember my justifications. I also want to sound worldly and intelligent at cocktail parties. xD
Eventually, this knowledge will be replaced by knowledge of shit I have to learn to be a pharmacist. And then I'll be like, "oh yeah...British politics...C-SPAN...meh".
Well, I think it's sad.
But it's really hard to love history in this environment. I only got one person asking me what I was reading about (The Zimmerman Telegram btw)...and he's more preoccupied with WWII.
School is an one ass-load of work after another, but I think I am starting to get back into the groove into school. Physics is just a lot of math, but so is chemistry, really. My labs are actually fun this semester, except Biology, which I dislike anyway.
BUT I made it past the application for RA! Now all I have to do is get my individual and group interview over with and I'll be in the clear! There are lots of people competing for the position, which I am not happy about, but I feel like as long as I genuinely care about the position, I will be okay.
ETA: What is wrong with me? I am so apathetic about everything right now. Lolita bores me, school bores me, I don't even feel like reading to be cheered up. Maybe I work too much?
