Brain off due to technical difficulties

Being a grad student, my brain is constantly overworked and underpaid. I love learning. Theology, exposition, missions, music, art, culture, anthropology, languages... all subjects I love! But I'm reaching my limits here.

My brain is not doing its job. Why? There are two ways my brain doesn't work.
Philosophy and history.
I wish I didn't hate learning history (so NOT cool) but I don't do history. There's just too much to grab hold of. I'm reading a THICK book on the history of europe, and there are too many people getting into too many wars. France hates this country, Germany just made a bunch of enemies, Russia is jealous. But wait, who are the Ottomans again? Oh yeah. But the Balkans? I have no idea :(
And then with philosophy, I'm just lost. I have no idea what is being said. It doesn't make any sense. Why are we talking in circles about hypothetical nonsensical theories?

History is too much to wrap my head around. Philosophy gives me nothing to actually grasp; it's so head-y. Wish me luck. My professors don't excuse me from assignments just because I don't like the subject.
