Every year on Thanksgiving, we would gather either at my family’s place or my friend’s house. This year Thanksgiving was a little different because instead, we had dinner on Thursday we moved it on Friday to make sure everyone was available for the dinner gathering. On Thursday, i decided to spend time cleaning and taking advantage of catching up on my school work. On Friday, friends and family gathered all together for dinner. I helped my mom with turkey, mahsi, goulash, and other more. There were a few laughs here and there sharing a few memories, and gladly, we were able to go to the mall since it was close to my house.

Reading the article Notre Dame and watching some videos on youtube had given me flashbacks when I first found out about the tragedy when a fire severely damaged the Notre Dame Church. It’s very disappointing for one of the essential histories building in France that lived for almost 850 years burned down by cigarette or an electrical malfunction. All around the world and architecture are willing to help to rebuild the Church. I understand no matter how beautiful they restructure the building; it just will never be the same again. But the fact that there is still part is saved from the fire. They should rebuild the part that is missing to hold the Church; that’s for it not to collapse. Let’s not give up on rebuilding this Church and give it as much attention that it needs for it to stand again and educate our next generation about the gothic Notre Dame histories.
How Evil Was Commodus?
Who is Commodus Antoninus? Commodus was the youngest Roman emperor that took his father Marcus Aurelius’s place. Commodus was born on August 31, 161 AD and assassinated on December 31,192 AD. Due to his power and personality, he was given a title as God. Also, Commodus change the name of Rome to Komoti Anna, the Universal colony of the earth. Commodus had no fear in him. However, for someone to have a power or becoming a leader doesn’t mean that they could be a positive person. If I described Commodus, I would say that he is evil, disgusting, selfish, and corruption. He was so evil that many people were waiting for his death.
One of the examples heinous act that was created by Commodus is. He shot hundreds of animals with his arrows because they considered being useless to him. The second example, according to the passage The Life of Commodus on page 291 “He put a starling on the head of one man who, as he noticed, had a few white hairs, resembling worms, among the black, and caused his head to fester through the continual pecking of the bird’s beak – the bird, of course, imagining that it was pursuing worms.” The third example, handsome men would be put to death. Also, according to the same passage, “He often mixed human excrement with the most expensive foods, and he did not refrain from tasting them, mocking the rest of the company, as he thought.” Tell me if all the examples above aren’t crazy. He has killed thousands of people for no reason and sacrificing people’s lives. Even the statue built for him provides some details that show people that he has power. For example, his left hand is full of fruits, and his right hand, he is holding a weapon. As we know, a lion or tiger is recognized as power, and for that, the statue has a lion on top of his head used to represent as a crowned. All he cared about to show people his power but didn’t have any sympathy for the innocent people that he has killed.
