I Will Not Bow

Is Odysseus Really A Hero? How could you call “The Great Odysseus” a hero? This man was hated by many gods, he cheated on his wife, he was cocky, and a murderer. Odysseus was hated by the gods; it was pretty clear to me when that they hated him because of the constant obstacles place in front of him. While leaving Calypso’s island, “his raft is destroyed in a storm and is thrown to the shores of the Phaeacians(P.51)”. After blinding the polyphemus, Odysseus tells him “ That if any one…

received his powers from his divine father Poseidon. Theseus also lifts a rock and finds the gifts from Aegeus; whereas, in the movie he smashes the rock and finds the Bow of Epirus. The Bow of Epirus itself is a falsehood because there is never a mention of any bow in the stories of Theseus, this could possibly be referring to Hercules’ bow. The movie also depicts that the Titans are held in Mt. Tartarus when in the myth Tartarus is in the underworld. One of the most terrible modifications of…

Cheyenne Narrative Gather around children so that I can tell you the story of how I became one of the first women warriors of the Great Cheyenne Tribe.

We held lots of ceremonies to honor “The Great Spirit” and all of our tribal accomplishments. Back then the buffalo wasn’t as rare so we had an abundant supply of food and a lot of…

On September 4th, 15 years ago, I was born. I was born in Duluth, Minnesota and lived in Superior. After living there for 5 years, I moved to Arizona. I lived in Arizona for 3 months. My family realized the weather was just too hot, so we moved back to Hermantown. I've lived here since. I like living in Hermantown way better than Arizona because I like snow and snowmobiling. Some of my hobbies include lacrosse, snowmobiling, hunting, fishing, and shooting my bow. In the winter, when the…

The Day We Went Into Minecraft One day… I was at my house in Richmond Hill, GA. Suddenly, there was this new looking invention my friend made. He made a portal into Minecraft, yes, Minecraft. I jumped in with my 5 other friends.

We played a game on the server. It was called Egg Wars. Everyone's favorite game, or at…

I was young ,free , and unstressed, and at the time I did not know what learning was or how it felt emotinally nor physically. I was so young that little did I know I was about to. That specific day, was the day I learned and accomplished tying my shoelaces, that I now do every day and has become a part of my life, and has proved to be one of the uttermost memorable experiences of my life. At the time I was the only child , around three years old, I was dependent on others, I had no…

they were jesut made of different metals. This is lastly shown by the fact that Knights used a crossbow, and the Samurais used a regular bow and arrow. The only things that are different between a regular bow and arrow, and a crossbow, is that the regular bow and arrow is held vertically, while the crossbow is held horizontally. All of the following examples I have listed are pretty much the same thing, but have slight differences. Overall meaning…

The book I read this month was The Ruins of Gorlan, the first book of the series Rangers Apprentice by John Flanagan. This book was about a boy in medieval times who didn't know his parents. Once young people turn fifteen they were selected to become an apprentice to one of the castles craft master. This boy's name was Will something, because of not knowing his parents he didn't know his last name or what he was suppose to do once he turned fifteen. Most kids followed in there parents foot…

Sometimes you need something to represent you, say a team. But you don’t have anything. I made a crest to symbolize myself. Three things I but on my Crest are symbols, values, and a motto. So let's start with the symbols on my crest. They are a hook, a key, a bow, and an arrow. The hook means I like to fish a lot. The key means I can open up new paths for myself and choose where I want to go. The bow means I am watchful from afar. The arrow means me watching can’t always be a good thing. Next up…
