So when I was a lad… I had to walk 15 miles in the snow, just to change the TV channel. Just kidding it was more like 20 miles.
So when I was a lad… in year 9 at school I really wanted to choose history as one of my options, I was denied access to this class as the history grade I received in year 9 was an F. Apparently if you are crap at a subject, you are not allowed to improve your understanding of it.
I wasn’t very good at school generally, fortunately you don’t have to be a genius to be a Graphic Designer (according to this book, you do have to be something else though). I would have to say that History was my worst subject in school, by far. I have a terrible memory and stood no chance of remembering names and dates (apparently not all schools taught History like that… but mine did).
Today’s question is… What was your worst subject at school. Is there anyone out there, who like Albert Einstein or The Ultimate Warrior failed at school, but turned out to be freakishly intelligent.
Answers in the comments box… please do not copy anyone else’s answers, anyone caught cheating will receive an F, you may begin.

I was good at everything. No honestly, I was. My worst grade was a B. Its a pain in the arse though ’cause it means its very difficult to choose what to carry on studying. And it means nothing in terms of long term career prospects. I’m probly gonna end up on the dole when I graduate.

I was special at school!
I think i found A-levels the hardest, choosing what to do especially. I ended up doing AS French (A* at GCSE, E at AS) and Economics, History and Computing - obtaining E, C and C respectively!
School was crap - i stood no chance but still got to uni so 2 fingers up to the education system as far as im concerned!

Cheers for the google bomb!
My worst subject was art (you will see next week for the website visualisation gallery) and RE.
Maths and Science though? Fucking ruled.

I failed history too in year 9! I’ve never done it since… not because I wasn’t allowed; I just didn’t want to.
Got a joke for you though from the other post!:
A French man, an Italian and an Aussie were talking in a bar talking about sex. The French man says in his thick accent; “When I am having sex with my wife, I bite her shoulders, and she rises a foot above the bed!”. The other two men nod, and then the Italian says, “Well when I have sex with my wife, I touch her neck with my tongue and she rises two feet above the bed!”. The other two men nod, and then the Aussie says; “When I have sex with my wife, I cum on the curtains and she hits the fuckin’ roof.”
Hehe, I found it funny.

History was one of my favorite subjects back in high school but I knew I had no future in looking back at dead people and fantasizing about Hitler’s dictatorship so I chose a different path and figured History would be too boring for me to pursue anyway.
Haha I was THE WORST at Physics, it basically caused the downfall of my academic life. The same goes with Math, but Physics would have to be the main culprit.

Maths. I’m so crap at Maths. That side of my brain just doesn’t work. Maths and Physics just don’t compute.
However creative subjects like English, English Literature, Drama, Textiles I was brilliant at and I’m not too bad at Languages - I got an A overall for my German.I love History and was quite good at it - B.
