I love American history. I guess that American Exceptionalism kicks in. However, my first love is Cold War. Most people describe it as the "most boring war ever," but I look at it like a soap opera. You spend four real weeks on one day. I use to watch All My Children (I know, I know) and my roommate from Uzbekistan would walk by when I was watching it and he would be like, "WTF they are still trapped in that cave? Its been three weeks." lol I like finding periods in history and finding the weird, insignificant stuff and writing about it. Like I did a paper once on a specific group of Catholic Nuns who served as nurses during the Civil War. The professor asked to keep the paper. Random stuff I love and its all history.
