a. I learned about the Greek myth, Atalanta and Hippomenes, Atalanta was never to get married unless the men beat her in a foot race. One man named Hippomenes fell in love with Atalanta and praised Venus and asked her to think of someway that he could win the race. Venus gave Hippomenes 3 golden apples to drop at Atalanta’s feet during the race. Their plan worked and Hippomenes and Atalanta had a happy marriage. But Venus got upset that Hippomenes did not thank her so she turned both of them in to lions.

b. Hippomenes erat iudex. Semper Atalanta celerrime currebat. Hippomenes was a judge. Atalanta always the fastest.

d. Hippomenes dea laudivit. Venus ei tria mala aurea dedit. Hippomenes praised the godess Venus. Venus gave to him three golden apples.

e. Hippomenes mala emisit. Atalanta mala inspexit. Hippomenes drops the apples. Atalanta looked at the apples.

6. Writing

a. Daily spark Critical thinking: 3 sisters went out to dinner and had a bill of $30, and each of them paid $10. When the waiter came to collect the money, he realized that the bill was $25 instead of 30. Instead of giving the sisters back all of their change, the waiter took $2.00 for himself and gave the sisters back the other $3, one dollar each. At the end of the night, each sister paid $9. 9 x 3 + 27, + the $2 that the waiter took = $29. But what happened to the extra dollar? Try to figure it out!

b. In Shakespeare Daily Spark I studied some of his soliloquies. My assignment was to try and think of some ways that modern movies and plays use the same idea as soliloquies.

c. A Soliloquy is when an actor on stage is alone and telling the audience the characters thoughts. Soliloquies are not consistently used in modern entertainment but I came up with a few similar devices used in modern movies and plays that carry the same idea as Soliloquies. Some of those devices include songs, like “The Wizard and I” from “Wicked” Speeches, like in “A Chorus Line” Voice over’s and letter writing like in “The Princess Diaries”

Lock me up in a room full of mangos, kiss a marmoset on the head, try swimming in a bathtub full of artichoke dip with monkeys, pepper makes me sleepy…GOODNIGHT!
