15. Historically Damned

Well, you see, History and I don’t get along very well and I have evidence to prove it to you:

I must have been sleeping when God was generously throwing away History knowledge for free. I’m the type of person who is usually good with memorization and doesn’t find it hard to remember important dates. Then why is it that I always get a low grade in History? Why is it that I still find it very boring despite the interesting discussions my classmates are very fond of. I think I’m cursed–no. I’m pretty sure I’m cursed. I get the most terror prof, I get a D. I get the easiest prof, I get a C. I get the most boring prof, I get an F. I get the funniest prof, I get another C–to think of it’s my second time taking the subject. What is wrong with me? Why can’t History be as fun as Math? (A lot of people might be cursing me now.) Fine, why can’t History be as fun as Chemistry? (I can imagine Chu’s eyes grow bigger as he reads that sentence.)

I guess the frustration’s coming from the very hard History finals I just took hours ago. I studied–a little. Enough to get me a C, I think? God. I hope I pass that test. I don’t think I’ll be able to handle HI166 for the third time.
