That's so me!

I'm translating Patricia Briggs' "Moon Called" at the moment, and I just love this quote: I have a degree in history, which is one of the reasons I'm an auto mechanic.

That's so... ME! But I would say: "I have a degree in history, which is one of the reasons I'm a translator." University pummeled my love for history right out of my hide, thank you very much. Since receiving my degree, I haven't been able to even look at anything history-related! *shudders*

Aww, see I'm the opposite - since receiving my degree, I rarely read anything that isn't history related.

Since then, I find historical stuff boring. And Holocaust? That gives me the creeps becaue we had been studying WW2 a whole year!

Ah, see, I don't do modern history. I'm a medievalist!
