i'm disappointed to say so, but ever since reading (actually reading) those annoyingly fat APUSH chapters, i've been connecting the events that happen today to the things that happened in the past. i can't tell if this is a blessing or a curse :(
but more importantly than that, i've been connecting strange things together. mostly it was the total involvement our government has in our lives today, but now, i've been thinking about social problems like how society discriminates, thinks and acts today. i wonder why we are so prejudiced against people who are different than us, and why people seem to be born with a need to hate.
but anyway...i don't think blogs are supposed to be this deep. but those are my thoughts. i have LOADS more, but i think the list would be too long to write x) i should find things that will occupy more of my time...

Whoa, this is deep. XD Too deep for break. :D
Yeah, it is kind of interesting to connect history to the current times. What I want to know is how people 50, 200 years from now are going to look back on our history. Are we going to have a chapter in the textbook? What kind of problems is it going to be about? Probably some of the social ones that you mentioned. And maybe by then they'll explain why it happened, and why everyone was so prejudiced. IDK though.
hmm...This reminds me of the problem I have after I "read" the AP World Textbook. All of these connections...It's very overwhelming. Although, I admit, it's fun to over-analyze at times. Maybe that's why I find it intresting to watch all of the social groups in my school.

Sorry for restating, but in the post above, the link to my name is broken. So, just wanted to let you know.
