Post by: Anonymous on August 08, 2005, 06:39:25 pm

Ok here's my issue. I have to read the Iliad for english class..... Im reading about 50 pages a day until school starts (the 15th) Im already about half way done with it... but I'm having a bit of trouble getting my who did what and what the hell happened list straight... if anyone has read that, can you just give me your interpretation of the story in a nutshell so I can check that against my notes? Thanks and much appreciated! :)

Well, I don't remember exactly what happened but you can always look up summaries at:

and

If you don't already know about them. They should have some summaries and notes for it

yes but unfortunately watching tv doesnt get you an A in honors english, doesnt get you a scholarship so you can go to a nice school even though you have poor ass parents, and it doesnt get you a good job. I want to go to school in new york and my parents are poor as shit. So i need to work twice as hard so i not only get accepted but i get a scholarship. -.- But dont fret blue, il see you one day, asking me if i want fries with that.
