      Hello, fellow sophomores let me just enlighten you about my first day of sophomore year. You see the night before it took me forever to pick out an outfit because I wanted to wear sweatpants and a sweatshirt or not come at all but my friends were all dressing nice so I felt inclined to dress nicely as well. Well, you see my nice is a white t-shirt, blue ripped jeans, and a sweater. And yes the sweater was needed because no matter the weather outside the school will always be fifty degrees.
      Anyways I get to school and I feel like I'm in the movie Groundhog Day because I swear it's like my life is on a loop. I was sitting on the same floor, in the same spot as I did only two months ago. After a few minutes I slumped to homeroom and then my first period, which if you were wondering is not at all interesting, just ask Gabby C. But the rest of my morning classes weren't as bad and the afternoon went by at a relatively...slow pace. You see after my favorite subject, lunch, I went to gym class or "drivers ed" and then choir. If anyone is wondering choir is so much fun and I love everyone in that class. But anywho after that, I went to my science period. It went by as usual. I sat down and saved a seat for one of my besties but, as you can guess we got our seats moved across the room away from each other in a matter of seconds.
      Last I had culinary which would be a great class if I had many friends in that class with me. But I think I can sacrifice because I will be making a LOT of COOKIES. Then I went home. Sike I had a three-hour practice after my long day. But after practice was over you can guess that I went home, ate some cereal, and took a long nap. That sleep lasted until 6:00 am when my annoying alarm clock woke me up for the second day. So I got up and redid everything I did yesterday. It's just like a Groundhog day am I right.

    I get this feeling, school can feel very repetitive after awhile. It gets especially repetitive in the first few weeks of school because everything still feels the same, and it takes a while to get used to the new school year and everything that comes with it.

    I agree school feels like the same thing day after day and it looking back it's just a blur of the same old thing. Also, in the beginning of the day I felt the same thing going to the same homeroom with the same people... it was like a continuation of last year that felt fake and wrong. Now I'm glad that the year has actually started and I am getting used to it.

    I can definitely say I feel, or at least felt, the same way as you. Everything is relatively the same as last year, only different teachers and different classes. The same homeroom, the same friends, the same people, the same schedule. It feels like a continuation of our previous year. It doesn't feel like we are in a new one, but we are.

Ancient Greek Heroes VS. Modern Day Heroes

-
Image
Heroes in Greek/Anglo-Saxon (I am grouping the types of historical literature we have read) writing are very obvious and much of ancient Greek literature involves a central hero or a supernatural story. In modern day English, however, the plots are less often mythical and more realistic. Since each person has a different definition for heroism, modern day heroism literature can be more varied. Ancient Greek writing is very often far-fetched, however. There are many similarities and differences between the two types of writing, but first I will run through the most significant differences. In Greek mythology, heroes were often religious figures, like demigods, while modern day writing focuses more on ordinary people. This could be because authors nowadays want the readers to be able to relate with the heroes in their stories. Greek writing had heroes that had the power to protect or destroy the people depending on prevailing circumstances. In contrast, modern day heroes are acknowledg...

My Brother by Elizabeth Hailey DeGasperis

          When I contemplate what is most important in my life, my mind is drawn to my 21-year-old brother, Tom. There are not enough words in the English language I could use to describe what he means to me. I cannot imagine the past fifteen years of my life without him. Allow me to start from the beginning.           Even when I was an infant, he never failed to take me out of my crib, strap me in my high chair, and cook scrambled eggs for us (at the tender age of six). He did this so my mother could catch up on sleep in the mornings and take care of me however he could. I only wish I could return the favour in some way. Though we have always been tight, we used to fight frequently as all siblings do. As immature children, we viewed every ordeal as monumental. The apocalypse would occur if either of us decided to give the other access to the TV remote or the pogo sticks for five minutes. However, we would always make-up in the end and...

Not Fate, Just a Coincidence - Sila Paniker

The idea of fate confuses me. I don't really understand how something will happen no matter what you do. It just seems very unlikely. I think we're constantly making choices that lead to occurrences. We make so many decisions a day that it seems impossible that fate can find a way around it all.  Awhile ago, I saw something called the Butterfly Effect, which doesn't exactly relate to fate but it makes sense to me. The idea is that a butterfly flapping its wings can cause a tornado on the other side of the world. Essentially, small changes can have large impacts. In my head, this connects with the thousands of tiny decisions we subconsciously make each day. There are people I've met or things that have happened and it feels like it was meant to be but they're just a bunch of coincidences that had the ability to change everything. Thinking about it, there are reasons that can explain everything. For example, I met one of my closest friends a few years ago a...
