Today in class, we pretty much took notes the whole time. Every once and a while, Mr. Schick would give us a break to give our hands a break because all of our notes are handwritten and he goes kinda fast when continuing the slides. He was explaining some poems that a guy named Homer wrote and then he told us about how when his daughter, he would read her The Odyssey as her bedtime story. It is a poem with over 12k lines. It is a poem that isn't easily read by younger people, so he was surprised that she was getting into it and really liked it. I thought it was cool how at such a young age, she really did enjoy the poem! When he was done telling us that story, we go the last slide of notes, ended the powerpoint, and then one minute later, the bell rang for class to end.
