Gah! Gah! Where is my Siren Cytheria?, she'll be bound to have an opinin on this. As do I- go with your heart. Try telling your parents "If I take history, I will most likely end up in a field I dislike, and not try as hard, wehereas if I go into music, I should enjoy what I'm doing, try harder, and hopefully be successful" Remind your parents that they arn't you, and vice-versa. You are your own person, and should follow your dreams, not theirs.

Take into consideration what your parents said..but over all go for what you want. I think you would rather be happy with your decision to study music, rather than not looking foward to going to study history everyday. Go with what you want to do and not what your parents want.

Think for yourself which subject would actually make an impact on your life. Would you like to be able to recite the exact date for every important decisive military battle in the last 3 millenia, or would you rather enjoy learning a few instruments and musical theory in general? Personally, I'd go for the music. Especially since I'm a DDR player. I read the screen the same way I used to read sheet music; I can divide the notes in quarters, eighths, twelfths, sixteenths, and thirty-seconds easily. My experience in band from middle school and freshman year has molded me into a drummer. I don't play much, but when I do, it sounds good.
The choice is yours, and not your parents'.

Dont listen to your parents about school. I did and im in the gayest classes. They dont ahve to take them, you do. If you want to take music take it. Your parents have nothing to do with your school work. Good luck
