Philosophy Day

Today in Honor's Human Geography we watched a Crash Course on Philosophy and all of its different definitions. Philosophy can be described in an infinite amount of ways. One example that we learned was "questioning the reality of nature".Another definition was "is the world made up on energy and matter or does it all just happen." This definition really made me think. We know that certain things in the universe are made up of matter and things happen using energy. We also know that matter makes up things. But, what makes up matter? Particles? If so, what makes up particles? The questions and answers would keep going on until you get to the 'ultimate answer'. This answer would be the answer to everything in life and would provide a logical explanation towards everything the universe has to offer. After watching the video and talking in class, the bell rang and ended the day.

Test

Today in Honor's Western Civilization we took an Ancient Rome test. In my luck the test was open blog, our very first one all year long. I thought the test was pretty easy considering the test was open note there were a couple that I was confused on but they were mainly because i was absent for one class when we went over Julius Caesar's reign. However, I think I still did pretty well on it. I did well on the other questions about the Punic Wars and the government of Rome. I still found it interesting taking the test and seeing how similar America's government is to that of Ancient Rome's. After we were done taking the test the bell rang and ended class.
