What I have learned in Honor's this semester
It was said that we could blog about what we have learned. I have learned more about Greek mythology than I have ever known. I knew nothing about the gods before entering this semester, so keeping up with each and their purpose has been difficult (especially when their names change). I have learned to appreciate some of it, even though I am not very fond of Greek mythology. They are all very tragic and sometimes depressing. They can be beneficial though. The play about Oedipus was my favorite. His blindness in the beginning to his physical blindness in the end makes for a brilliant play, even though it seems like he would have caught on sooner. In a sense we are all blind, and I feel like we know it a lot of times, because sometimes the truth is just too hard to bare.
