The Homeric world

My classmates and I are officially done with Homer, as of Thursday night. The next book we're reading is the Platonic dialogue, Meno. After the intensity of Achilles, Odysseus, Agamemnon, Menelaus, Hector, Zeus, Athene and all the other characters in Homer's epics, good ol' Socrates, in his calm confusion will be a welcome break...

Crew

6:00 am monday through friday... It's pretty rough. In fact, I slept through my alarm the second and third day of practice. I mean, I usually don't go to bed until at least 1 and even then I can't seem to fall asleep... 5 hours is not enough sleep... Anyway, in order to make sure that I get up for practice, one of the upperclassmen comes and bangs on my door until I open it... it works like a charm. Seriously though, how cool is that?
