Charles Hollis Assignment 1 A hero is someone that dedicates there lives to something bigger than themselves. My heroes are the men and women that serve our country overseas. These people go and risk there lives for other people that they do not even know. Since 2001, soilders have gone overseas to prevent anymore terrorist attacks from happening. It is not only the ones still fighting that are my heros but wounded and the dead. They have given themselves to the greater good. All of the soilders had a choice to go to the army. They help others while other people stand and watch. They perform fantastic phisical deeds. Without these people we would most likely not be here today.

Assignment 2 My golden age would have many things in it. First of all, My friends and family would be their. We would play baseball and football all day. We could also eat whatever we wanted with out our appearances changing. We would still have school but only for limited ours and no homework. The world we be at peace, no wars. The world would also revolve around me. I would get whatever I want Whenever I want, and I could do whatever I want to do. Their would be no consequences for me and I could anything. I know this all sounds selfish but it is my golden age.

I think i might have to say my xbox was probably a 2 sided gift though. My parents get mad at me when I play it because I usually do not eat. When I don't eat i start getting very cranky. They do not like this. It is also a good thing. It makes my happy when i play it. It is very fun for me. But I'm not very sure whether that is a good thing. I feel like it is a two-sided gift though. It can be used for good and evil.

Assignment 4 One thing that i feel has really ended my childhood was entering middle school. I feel like I had to become much more responsible. I could not get anyone to do school work for me. My teachers have been more hard on me than middle school. I also feel that when i go to the upper school i will not be child even more than the middle school.

Assignment #5 I was fishing at the bay and the fish were bitting that very day. It like they knew something was coming but how could they know, they were only swimming.

Later that day the clouds were becoming darker. The wind was getting stronger. Lightning was coming down with a crack and the waves hit the boat with a smack.

The water was rising 40 feet. The boat started going out to sea. I knew my fate was the same as the blue-eyed son. All I knew was that i was done. https://redtreetimes.files.wordpress.com/2010/08/baucis-and-philemon.jpg Assignment #6 In the story, Baucis and Philemon many changes go underway through out the story. at the beginning, the gods changed their opinion on the human race. They figured out that human were not very generous. When they came to the small house of Bacius and Philemon they were greeted warmly. They rewarded them greatly by destroying everyone who didn't appreciate them. They changed their house to a temple. This change was a reward but I think that Baucis and Philemon didn't care. They just wanted to be together

If we wanted to, we could destroy our selves with nuclear weapons. The power that we know have could end us all. We could change the way the world is know. Our way of life would end.

One reason that spring is my favorite is that my birthday is in spring. Easter is also in spring as well as the end of school. Spring is also the start of baseball and spring break. The temperature during spring is perfect. I can wear shorts and a t-shirt without it being 100 degrees. Spring symbolizes the changes archetype in that the flowers bloom and the weather warms up. Spring is the beginning of a new life.

Final Post I have learned to see what the archetypes, that we've learned, do to help us in our daily lives. They symbolize most of the events that happen to us daily. For example, the changing of the seasons from winter to spring represents the changes archetype. Another example is the the End of Childhood archetype. My childhood is ending right now. I am starting to have more responsibilities, I am becoming more aware of problems in our world, and I actually have to work for something if I want it. The archetypes have been occurring for most of my life. The most significant thing to me about what we learned in mythology is probably the fact that the changes archetype applies to so many stories. The archetype is in many stories in the bible like Noah's Ark. I did not know that the flood cleansed the world of evil. I've learned that the changes archetype and the End of Childhood are happening everyday.
