Aw thanks for saying I'm a cool person! I try not to be too crazy and honest. I feel so happy now. :D

Hmm, favorite history class? Tough one...I think the class that impacted me the most was Africa 1800 to Present that I took in junior year but I think I honestly really loved every class I took on Europe and I think maybe my favorite of all time were the two courses I took on the Crusades, one of which was my senior seminar.

Hmmm, I never took African history and all my European was modern.

Honestly, modern African history blew my mind - learning about the different places in Africa and how they dealt with colonialism and the aftermath of being forced into nation-states was incredible. A good book to read on it (although it's a novel) is The Poisonwood Bible - it's about a missionary family in the Congo when it got it's independence and it's mind-blowingly amazing.

Also, what kind of modern European history did you take? Was it WW2 and Communism or the 1800s type stuff?

I took everything from French Rev and Modern Britain from 1870 to more WWII than I know what to do with. WWI was a great class.

Thanks for the book rec, my sister read that, but I never heard what it was about.

The book is so incredible. What kind of Modern Britain did you take - I tried taking a Victorian Britain class when I studied in the UK and the professor was boring as shit. I also took a shit load of French Revolution and France/Germany in the 1800s classes. I've read more Marx than I ever needed too.

Through the 1970-80s, about a century. French Rev was all I needed, no Napoleonic for me.

Hey!

[nolechica.livejournal.com]

1. You friended me and were friends with Kelly, which meant Adam!
2. Other than the aforementioned, Roll Tide!
3. You have some of the best icons ever, and are a fellow sane Southerner.
4. Nothing specific, just general Adam discussion.
5. Did you go to college and if so where?
6. So many to choose from, but I think I like the default best.

[lmichelle599.livejournal.com]

I went to a local college for my bachelor's and Alabama for my Masters degree.

The purple corset one? I love that one, too. I like to do a non-fandom icon as a default one since my fandoms often change.

[nolechica.livejournal.com]

Cool, yeah, DNW fandom default. Plus I love the Pillsbury icon.
