a fairly intense meal

Today in Western Civilization class with Mr. Schick we ate food that was usually eaten in the Ancient Greek times! The food was very good. The first dish that they handed out was a triangular shaped piece of dough that was eaten by the ancient greeks. It tasted good but it was fairly dry in my opinion. The second piece of food that they handed out to everyone was another triangular piece shaped piece  of food, but it had a hard, crispy outside. On the inside it was full of spinach, it was delightful. The last thing that they served was desert. The desert was a nice and smooth piece of some kind of cake with roasted almonds on the top. All in all I would say that it was a pretty good class, just don't let the school board know about it though

One day on his way back home, Martin's horse chariot was struck by a lightning bolt. Luther thought he was dying, so he made a plea to God that he will forever worship him if he helps keep Luther alive. Shortly after this spectacle, Luther became a monk and devoted his life to worshipping the Gods.

Cleisthenes and Isagoras

Today in human geography class with Mr. Schick we learned about the historic events in Greece when Isagoras and Cleisthenes were at uneven terms. The two leader has many hardships and they were following up the banishment of Hippias. The two political figures had various views.  Isagoras was the horrible tyrant whom everyone disliked. Cleisthenes was the political leader who was loved by everyone and was the favorite to be picked. For no apparent reason, Cleisthenes was not picked in the end and ended up getting ostracized by Isagoras out of Athens. Later on, Isagoras was revolted against and was thrown out of office by the citizens of Greece, he was then ostracized for good when Cleisthenes was later elected into office.
