Edwin - Week 13 Reading Journal lyrics

11/4/13 Today I read one of my favorite books. I read that real poets are not afraid to show themselves. I read about animals symbolic for kingdoms. The Leopard is for Alexander the great's empire. And the Bear was for the Persian empire. The Beast with iron is the Roman empire. The Lion in the Babylonian empire. This is a good book, and a book that every serious student should read 11/5/13 Today I read about Semitic languages. I read that they are spoken in the middle east. Many of these include Hebrew, Aramaic, and Arabic. The most widely spoken is Arabic. Hebrew is the original language spoken. The place where Syriac is spoken in in Syria. Hebrew is spoken in Israel, and Arabic is spoken all over 11/6/13 Today I read a little bit of an Iron Man comic. I read about A person stuck in a glacier. I read about a Giant Man. I also read about other people's opinions about a certain topic. People have different opinions of the same thing 11/7/13 Today I read a poem from the 20th century. I read that someone didn't want to be black because she thought she was not pretty. I read that she used to run home crying because she wanted to be lighter. Her mom told her she was fine. There should be no respect of persons. This is a sad poem 11/8/13 Today I read about Herman Rorschach. He invented the inkblot test. He was a psychiatrist that was a Swiss man. He bought a monkey and kept him to see what his parents would think. He made the inkblot test popular, this is used in psychiatry
