Hehe... I'm doing Ancient Sparta and Persia... and damn, I get sick of those!! I'm going to sleep at night and seeing hoplites(Spartan foot soldiers) while the names Cambyses, Cyrus and Xerxes(persian kings) are constantly floating around my mind! Am I losing it?

we had about 4-5 classes a week, but we did the same topic the whole way through. Thats really weird how you do different topics, wouldnt you get confused?

We did those topics too! Cambyses, Cyrus, Xerxes, Darius, Artaxerxes...trust me, they never leave you alone!!

No, you're not losing it at all...you're an ancient history student. Welcome to the club :) (Well, I'm ex now, but I was pretty insane for most of my ancient classes)
