Oh! I totally forgot to post this picture of Lupe’s fingernails yesterday!

It reminded me of Minos’ tail – you know how it curls when he judges people. I keep trying to get her to tell me where she got her nails done so I can get a nail done like this for class!

Sorry the picture is so blurry. 🙁

Today, we worked on levels 4, 5, 6, and 7.

When we got the Violence against God, we talked about this artist and his picture, Piss Christ, and how many considered this to be blasphemous.

But honestly, the highlight of my day was when we talked about usury in 2nd Block. After watching the Western Sky commercial, and looking the bank’s interest rates, Ben decided to call Western Sky and talk to a representative. This is his face when he heard that he may qualify for a loan with 130% interest rate:

Best. Day. Ever.

It kinda made up for the fact that my 3rd Block throws MARKERS at each other all period long, and they don’t even PICK UP THE MARKERS! Even Tanner, who claims that he always picks up his markers, left this present for me today:

Boo.

🙁

Sad Riley.

Riley once again played the part of the devil as we finished up Paradise Lost today. Make sure you get the notes from a classmate. Ben, you missed the entire unit. Riley has an old video that you can watch, BUT MAKE SURE YOU GET THE NOTES FROM A CLASSMATE.

We ended the day with Satan’s Letter to his Girlfriend – you can find the letter in LMS in the Hell folder and then clock on the Paradise Lost folder.

Does it make sense now why Riley used the flames for this folder?

Get ready for the hardest thing you’ll ever read. Worse than Shakespeare! Harder than a stereo manual! Even more difficult than trying to file your taxes! It’s John Milton and Paradise Lost!

Make sure that you get the notes from the background information from a classmate for the John Milton background and the first 75 lines.

Big ideas to remember: free will, pride, invocation, topic statement, epic, Adam and Eve, inversion, run ons

If God is all powerful and all good, how is it that evil exists?
