Today we got our test back and reviewed it. I got a 91% on the test. The test was easy because all the answers were in my notes. I finished the multiple choice so fast, I thought my answers were going to be all wrong. The second half of the test was easy as well, although I did get two and a half questions wrong. The main problem was I couldn't think of works that relate to polis. It's too bad now I can think of several different words that come from polis, because I really needed those points. Also, I couldn’t get the bonus question. I knew it was a mountain up north, but I couldn't think of the name. The written responses I did well on. The class voted guilty: 5 and not guilty: 16. I voted not guilty. Socrates committed two very major crimes in that era, he was bound to be killed. If I openly sided with the losing team, there would be no doubt that I will surely die.

Today we talked about the effect humans had on the land and how they changed it. For example, Manhattan was a plain island. Not many buildings or skyscrapers reaching into the sky. There wasn't even that many people living on the island. But then they started to build homes and workspace. Now more people came to the island to find a new home or job. When people think of New York city they think about new opportunities. When the buildings were finished, many people came to the city, they started their own businesses.  Soon more and more people came, and the population grew. It could be compared to the gold rush in the west when everyone moved out to find fortune. The city is always working and always moving. Now the people of New York city are living life with hope of a better future. They wake up each morning to become a better person than they were yesterday.

We got our tests back today. The class averaged around a 75%. We had notes to use and we still tied with the honors class who didn't have notes. I need to take better notes for my blog. All my notes were in my notebook but we won't use that. We will only be using the blogs. A couple of people got A's on the test. Others not so much. Fun fact every single person who took the test got this one question wrong. It was a trick question that messed with our perception and our thinking. The question had specific coordinates on it, but it doesn't exist in the world. Everyone just took one glance at the numbers and and assumed it was absolute location. It worked because no one got it right, next time we won't be tricked
