I know this is supposed to be about pride, but I couldn’t think of an example that fit that description. So I am going to write about the time I was having fun but I regretted having fun. I was in the hallway with my laptop with Justin and Cameron like usual. And we were going to go onto Digg, but I decided to play NFS most wanted instead because I thought that the middle school rule were you could play video games before school applied at HTH, but that wasn’t the case; obviously somebody thought it would be too good of an idea to do that. So I was having fun playing NFS and then Mr. Jana and Ben daily come around the corner. Justin, Cameron, and I look up at them and then continue playing. Then Ben daily calmly says to me as if he was simply saying hi to me: “I’m going to have to confiscate that. You can get it from Marcus at the end of the day.” So I gave it too him and Cameron and Justin started talking about why you couldn’t play video games before school if you can play cell phones, iPods, and PSP’s without someone taking it away.

3/2 Iliad Assignment
Summary:
In the beginning Patroclus drives Hector in to back all the way to troy. Then later were we pick up on line 800 a lot more stuff happens. A reference to Hubris and cosmos is made. Patroclus gets knocked of his chariot. Hector and Patroclus fight for a while and neither of them can win. Apollo rips off Achilles armor and then Hector lays the final blow to kill him.
Questions:
At the end of the book Hector tells Patroclus not to come back to the ships, I was wondering what he meant by that because Patroclus is on the verge of death.
I was also wondering if Hector took Achilles sword or something like that.
