New semester
This new semester means we are going to be reading a lot of new books and writing a whole new portfolio of essays for class. I think im looking forward most to finishing up the Odyssey because its a book that I have heard all about through elementary middle school and have always wanted to read. In latin class and world history we hear about all the myths and stories behind the tale of the great odysseus and gods that help him get back home from his journeys and now I have finally got to read about them together instead of in portions. The Odyssey also brought its share of reading challenges and was extremely confusing at parts. Book 10 was the easiest for me to understand because we read parts of it in class and got to discuss it while we were reading. Although it has been interesting to learn about the gods and this epic journey, I am also ready to start a new book for the semester. Im ready to learn about a new story and see what the next adventure is for second semester.
