Like I'm Not In Debt Enough Already

On a few occasions recently I've found the idea of going back to school for another degree wandering through my head, upon which I have pounded said head against the nearest brick surface.

But man recently the idea of studying history for a couple of years has seemed really appealing.

WTF IS WRONG WITH ME.

My dad got his MA in humanities and his PhD in History. He has been like walking SAT prep since I was 4 because of it.

History becomes this lifestyle, it's the darndest thing. You should do it. Knowledge is power.
