I hated Social Studies. It was required every year. The books were thick with tiny print. Everything was in black ink with small, black and white photos. Boring.
It was just memorization of dates, treaties, purchases, and wars and I had no interest in any of it. I had no concept of those things yet.
It was the only class I didn't get an 'A' in.
But then in a stroke of luck, a new teacher came to teach 'History' one year and she was young and fun and she made it so interesting, that suddenly, I got it. I got an 'A' that year, too.
Now of course, we all know that history is one of the MOST IMPORTANT subjects you must learn.
