Aren't you a history major?

So life is crazy. I have come to grips with that fact. Each season I go through has its times of absolute insanity, and also its periods of lulls. Right now its one of those "I'm not going to panic stress will not and cannot kill me" times.

In spite of all the pressure and my friend Mr. Stress, the Lord continues to show me favor. Today the history "quiz" was returned, and I made a B+. After class my professor and I engaged in conversation, and I found out I was one of the top grades. During this casual chat he said, "So did you tell me you were majoring in history, English, or classics?"

I know my expression was like "Say what!" Of course I couldn't help but laugh. He had a similar reaction when I told him I was a Nursing major. "But aren't you a history major?" Nope. "Ah, but you have such a sharp mind."

Looking beyond the fact he insinuated that nurses aren't very sharp...I was very flattered.
