[Potironette]

With politics I think part of it is definitely that I don't feel affected by it. I'm kind of apathetic and feel bad about that when I should be having an opinion, but it doesn't hit me to try to change it.

...maybe the same with history, since I don't feel like I interact with it much (math is everywhere, science is everywhere, language is at least present, English is sort of everywhere, where history is I probably just don't interact with it much?). Aaand since I don't interact with it much there's little chance for me to see people using history.

And then there's history for the sake of interest. I do find these facts about history here interesting, like how the French Revolution was important to Britain, but I also don't have to drive to delve into these facts myself..?

In any case though, I'll try to remember the next time I'm in class that I should be actively thinking--and then history will be more interesting, and maybe I only need to take notes on important facts with maybe a note on a big trend, not everything I'm reading or the teacher's saying. And multiple choice tests are unfortunate but they only happen once in a while.
