In Class Essays

Today in class, we had to write our essay portion of our westciv exam. We had to choose three essays to write out of about five. I chose the one about what Jared Diamond's theory of "geographic luck" was about and how it applied to what civilization is like today. I though that essay was one of the easiest ones because the answer to it was easy and I already had a good idea as to what I was going to write. The second essay I chose was the one about the differences and similarities of ancient Rome and ancient Greece. You also had to talk about the type of entertainment and culture that ancient Rome and ancient Greece had. That essay was kind of easy I mean it was a little harder to write because I had to remember things about ancient Greece and we talked about that a while ago. The third essay I chose was one I did on the last exam which was the one about Socrates and his famous quote about life. I already knew what to write for this essay also because I already did it before and we talked a lot about it in the first and second semester. The essay writing wasn't as bad as I thought, but we really needed more time and maybe another class to finish because there was a lot of writing in the whole combination of the three essays. I also didn't think it was really fair that we had to write three and another class had to only write two essays. I am just happy it's over with and done.
