My Favorite Thanksgiving Traditions

My favorite Thanksgiving tradition is that I get to see my family that lives in Kentucky. Although seeing distant relatives and friends is typical on Thanksgiving, it is still one of my favorite traditions. My family from Kentucky has my only cousins from my mom's side of the family and makes me happy when I get to see them (which is not often). Since seeing family a traditional part of Thanksgiving, why not make it your favorite tradition.

My Julius Caesar Project


My English class did projects over the Shakespearean play Julius Caesar. My project was about the battles and strategies in Acts 4 & 5 of the play. To learn more about the battles and strategies, I did research and learned some new things. One new thing I learned was that there was a significant amount of time between Caesar's death and the Battle of Philippi. However, the most important thing I learned is that there is more to a story than what there seems to be. For example, everybody thought that Brutus just made a dumb decision to attack Antony and Octavius but in reality Brutus' was pressured to do so.
