History is a very nice subject, actually all subjects are. Only in our education system are sciences gratified at expense of arts.
But its important to just do your best in the field you choose, and things will always work for you.
For example while Kenya's leaning at independence was capitalist, sometimes I wish we had encouraged students to go to the East, for in the East they joint and were allowed to do Engineering related disciplines WHILE the west, America and western Europe wanted us to do economics and business related subjects. REASON, to sustain their trade and industries they wanted businessmen while the East was teaching us to build own Industrial muscle.
