GREECE
Today was our first Honors Western Civ class. We talked about Greece and talked about the cultural features. This includes the land, sea, and everything in between. We were given a textbook and we were told that we could change the name of our blog. We were also told that Mediterranean meant "the middle of the Earth." Then the bell rang and we headed out. Tomorrow we will learn about the impact that the mountains have on the communities. We will also learn about how there are very few roads, and the roads that are there are made of dirt. I am sure we will learn more tomorrow about the community and their benefits from the environment and their struggles but that is all we did today.

When they gather their things to leave, just tell them, "good luck getting a job when you refuse to work".             I think that you should be like Rowan. Rowan had to sneak behind enemy lines in Cuba to complete a risky job, to deliver a letter to the general. He didn't refuse, give up, or even give an excuse. He simply accepted the mission and went to work. Now a man that obeys an order to go behind enemy lines and risk h
