Five intresting things that i liked from the aglon saxon times.

1.The CRIME from before was better in someways because they didn't have jails. so they punished the people by cutting something out of their body, like the nose or fingers or just pay the family depending what was the crime. well now and days there's jails and people do years in there depending on the crime they had done.

2.The CLOTHES caught my attention the most because of the way the woman actually cover all their body as their skin, they looked very decent. But now the woman wear clothes really short that makes them look really bad and not decent.

3. I like it how simple the HOUSES used to be before, they were very empty from the out side and very simple. now the houses are 2 floor or more and bigger also attracts your vision more.

4. Its interesting how WARRIORS used to look before then now and days, the most interesting part is the weapons they used back then, like shields, arrows and stuff like that. They also used to have everything cover from head to toe. But now we use guns tanks and things that do more effect faster and easier.


5. The JOBS from before and now are kind of the same because the men do the dangerous and hardest jobs. But a little different now because some women work on jobs like being cops or fire fighters that's dangerous now.

My favorite part of the story.



I swam in the blackness of night, hunting monsters out of the ocean,
and killing them one by one; death was my errand and the fate they
had earned.

I picked this part of the story because when i read it, it talked about how he got to grandel he impressed me on how he did it. specilly because he was brave enought and had a lot of courage to travel alone across the ocen figthing monsters and killin them one by one. well when he killed them that ment to him that he was gettin more respect and showed how strong he is. Also that people should fear him.

Something About Me.

1. Tell us of something you have done that no one in this class has done?



What i think of something that no one in my class has done would be stood up the hole day.

I mean like a twentyfour hours of the day no nap or nothing.



2.Provide three adjectives for yourself.

One of my adjectives that i have for my self is handsome. The second one would be friendly from my point of view. Last one would be polite thats what i think about my self.



3. Give us a brief history on your name.

My name is Alex it comes from Greek, the meaning for it is "defending men". In Greek mythology this was another name of the hero Paris, and it also belongs to several characters in the New Testament.
