I guess I should have finished school.
Not that it would have done me any good. I mean sure I'll know all about the history of my world and could recite my ancestry backwards and forwards. But I still wouldn't know a damn thing about cells. Or electricity. Or algebra. Science in general. Computers. How to drive a car. Illnesses- diseases- Gravity. TV.
I can shoe a horse. Fix a wagon wheel. I know how to use a crossbow and long bow. Not a gun. If pressed I could make a decent sword. I can hunt game. Skin a deer. I can even fight with a sword. In a combat situation.
I know which plants are poisonous and which'll give you the runs and other's that'll help with a wound. At least at home. Don't know a damn about chemistry.
Long words make me run to the dictionary. Which I have enough problems using cause I have problems reading.
Apparently not being exposed to something makes you ignorant.
It's not like I can wave a wand or something and make it happen. I'm not a god. Despite my powers, I'm not a god.
I don't want to be a god.
I just want to understand stuff.
I like understanding stuff. I like knowing stuff. I don't like feeling stupid. But then again, who does?

It's not my fault my world hasn't moved past the fucking iron age!
