Topic

I have been thinking that the American Revolution is one of my favourite time periods in history, but I seem to be having difficulty coming up with a topic. I've been tossing around the Boston Tea Party or The Stamp Act....but they seem to overdone. Something along that line of thinking though is what I'm going for. Something that really heated up the situation in the colonies and pushed people closer to Revolution.

Why I want to be a History Major

I would like to be a history major because I enjoy studying the past. I have a great talent for remembering little pieces of information that I find interesting. History classes are fun and you learn an incredible amount every time you pick-up a new book or read a new source. It really makes you grow as a person to be able to see into the minds of other great men and women and see how they thought, comparing their times with ours and using that information to guide your actions today.
