ATHOUR PROFILE

The classical Greek civilization is the cornerstone of Western civilization today. The Greeks invented and developed everything from logic and democracy to rhetoric, drama, and philosophy. "Empire of Ancient Greece, Revised Edition" chronicles the remarkable legacy of the Greeks, as well as the diversity of their societies - from the thriving democracy of Athens to the militarism of Sparta to the oligarchy of Thrace.

It explores the conditions that made it possible for the ancient Greeks to develop a culture that set the foundation for our intellectual lives today, and explains why Greek power eventually declined.

Everyday life in ancient Greece, from the wealthy citizens who grappled in the Olympic arena to the farmers who found 50 different ways to use olive oil, is also examined. Connections in our own world to the ancient Greeks are numerous, including the Olympics, much of our classical literature, the scientific method, architecture, and many English words.

My found poem(my opinion about love)

love is just a myth that only happens once in a life time but its not always true love cause true love its only once in a life time your heart can make you think you love some one that you dont really have feelings for at all.love makes you blind and many thing can happen when you think you love someone but do you really care about that preson
.many teens say they know love but they dont cause love is pure and it the strongest feeling know to humans and some guy may take advantage of those girls that say they love them they can pressure her to do things that she might not want to do and the guy tells her come on babe if you love me you do it and they end up doing it and they end up having sex,drugs,diching school, or even been bad in school and at home and even having kids and droping out of school leaving their future behid ,
but all that was it worse it .i dont it was because you dont even know if it true love and you risk your whole future for someone that you thought you love,but love it not around the block or the coner love comes once and i like to tell a girl i love you if i dont really mean it because it not right to play with a girls feelings but some guys just say it to get laid or get the girl to do something with him cause she love him and they do anything for them .........for me the word "i love you"
i wont say it if i dont mean it only to those that i love and care about for me love is special one of the strongst feelings of the humans that it cant be control or stop from happen and it pure the feeling ever to be know that someone love you and you love them.

Essay (themes)

Im going to compare and contrash "Love With Out Love" and "Tonight I Can Write".
love with out love is very different to tonight i can write because in tonight i can write .
he talks about writting the sadest thing in life that he can cry that night.the poem is about sad thing he missing that one lady that makes him fee alive
,and is their for him when he needs that special one and itt a good poem because,
he wrote it in two language spanish and english and it makes so much sence it his a story ,
but sad and touching,but love with love is about love and caring and it verty short ,
but it talks about love alot but love it real once in a life time they say
,but we dont know if it once in a life time.the poem is very sweet and touching too
just like tonight i can write but their different cause in one they talk about love and the other one they talk about love and sad and it longer .
I for my opinion i like both their both pretty good .

Always running (essay)

Luis J.Rodriguez know as Grillo was a gang member.I guess he never imagine how hard life can get into gangs,drugs,violence,and you can losse even your life.
he felt in love with a hooker but hooker just have sex for money that thier job.maybe a regular girl wouldnt be interestend in a gang member because they get in trouble with drugs,gangs,police and they could get kill.Grillo had a rough childhood,his parents got divorce and they move all over the place so he had to make new frieds all the time.


I think that anger he has is from his childhood.He decided to have a easier lif and get money.Being in a gang killing,being the best one and get money quick and have a easier life.I think that been in a gang is dumb you dont get nothing good out of it and you can get alot but losse it all in flash .you can get shoot or kill in gang wars for me i think been in a gang is waste of life because you can do something good for your life and it better for your future.

In gangs u can die and not have a carrer a lifevwit someone you love that it worse been with and u can have a family with your kids and life better then been in gangs.many teens think that by getting in a gang their cool and their friends always got their backs but sometimes does friends be trade you and they think they get respect but no one cares.so for my opinion dont be in gang to cool or get respect it a wasted of time and your risking your life.

vocaulary narrative

Nationalism generally involves the identification of an ethnic identity with a state.

The subject can include the belief that one's nation is of primary importance.

It is also used to describe a movement to establish or protect a homeland (usually an autonomous state) for an ethnic group.

In some cases the identification of a homogeneous national culture is combined with a negative view of other races of cultures.

In former eras, people were generally loyal to a city or to a particular leader rather than to their nation.



I learn it in my History class I was learning about war world one.We talking about total war when all the people help the nation and they help proctect their nationalism.and many people are nationalism because they would anything for their country and for what they own for their nation and they are proud to be in their country

Literary Treassure & Response

What I Love About You
I love the way you look at me,
Your eyes so bright and blue.
I love the way you kiss me,
Your lips so soft and smooth.
I love the way you make me so happy,
And the ways you show you care.
I love the way you say,
"I Love You,"And the way you're always there.
I love the way you touch me,
Always sending chills down my spine.
I love that you are with me,
And glad that you are mine.

where im from (my version)george ella lyon

where im from the land far far away,

i came here to succes for a better

future and have a better life for me,

where im from the below to rise to

the top and become someone

important in this world,

where im from the land nobody

cares about anyone but their

self and nobody will care,

where im from the people

that crys for help and noone

helps them cause they dont

care about others,

where im from the weak and the strong

that work hard in cold or hot, for

their families to support them

and give them what they can

and rise children......that's where

I'm from
