T2 B56: The War at Troy

Hey! So updates on today. We had our Brain Project lottery today, which was quite epic. Everyone was holding their breath, crossing their fingers, and hoping that the name being called out wasn't theirs. I got a really good spot, right in the middle, not too close to the beginning, but not to close to the back. I'm so glad I got #17. I also admire Chris, and Kevin D, for coming forward and volunteering, because no one else was ready to go. They both had really good presentations, and inspired everyone to make their own presentations better.I'm finally close to finishing my project, so hopefully I can fine tune it in the meantime.  

In English, we started watching Troy, which is supposed to be a great and sad movie, according to Natasha. It features the Spartans in war against Troy. Achilles is of course, one of the main characters, and he is played by Brad Pitt. It was really awesome, but some parts were gruesome, such as times when Achilles was in battle, and other war scenes. But after Gladiator, I don't flinch at scenes like this anymore. We only finished a part of it, so I super excited to find out what happens next.

In P.E., we had our first gymnastics test on upside-down balances. I tried my best to hold a frog stand, and actually got a pretty good mark. I'm just glad I got this test over, because the next one is probably going to be way better!
