A Little Introduction


Well Welcome, Welcome!

History, one of the most hated classes in school, is more often than not taught wrong. To put it short and sweet, history is not just memorizing dates and important figures in the past. In fact, I am quite against such methods. History, quite frankly, is learning about real people. They are individuals, like you or me, who have lived their lives and made some scale of impression on the world, big or small, good or bad. The most fascinating, intriguing, disturbing, comical, brilliant, and horrific ideas and events in history are not taught in history classes! …Until now in my “Unorthodox Classroom.”

History is quite ridiculous if you ask me. One must remember and keep in mind that historical famous figures are indeed real people. It is this often over-looked reality that intrigues my interest in this subject. In these “lessons,” I am going to relate past people/events in modern terms and shed some light on the topics in contrast to the world that we are living in today. This is going to be a mixture of unprofessional, sarcastic, satirical, serious, and comical views of crap that has happened.

You will learn more in the few minutes it will take to read these than you did in your entire school career. AND lets be real here, it will be more entertaining.
