T he most significant thing that happened this week was that i was asked the question of why did I decide to take AP US history? For a second I didn't know what to say, why was I taking APUSH? Besides the fact that I want to go to college, i had to ask my self why I was there? After a few minutes of pondering I came to the realization that I want a class that will challenge me, a class that i can interact amoungst my classmates , discuss current events, and even past events. I want this class to teach me what it means to be an american . I want APUSH to teach me what happened in the past that shaped the united states today.
Knowing what happened in the past , can better help us understand our country and its true foundations. It can help us with desicion making, and learning life changing lessons. Imagine what life would be like if we didn't have history. What if our brains didn't let us have memories? How could we advance in technology without knowing any history? History is knowledge, and knowledge is power! Maybe that is the real reason i am taking APUSH ; to have knowledge and power in my future.
Everyday i am going to ask myself why am I taking APUSH, so I can see how my perspective changes throughout the year. Hopefully by the end of the year all of the reasons I decided to take AP us history will be the right ones. I hope I can reach the goals I have for APUSH or maybe even more.
I CANT WAIT!!! to really start APUSH, im excited to learn and see how the class is really like. I want to see if How my perspective of things throughout the class and if i come out a different student. Hopefully A better student :)
