Today I have just studied World Civilization for the fourth time and I found it fun to know what is going on in the past. The topic that interested me the most is Ancient Egypt. The chapter starts with telling about the environment of Egypt and comparing it with Mesopotamia. The reason that they compared these two is because they are in the same period of time. The similarity is both of them depended on the water, Egypt depended on the Nile and Mesopotamia depended on the Tigris and the Euphrates. The Nile is a benevolent river, it annually swells gently and made non damage but the Tigris is in contrast, it’s frequently destructive made a lot of damage. The difference is the Egypt land is a great place to intensive agriculture but the Mesopotamia isn’t. Egypt supports three crops a year. They have no storm and no frosts and sun shines an average of 361 days per year. The environment there seems to be good for me except the temperature that is too high to stand. The temperature goes up to seventies and that is much higher than Thailand.
The part that I interested the most in this chapter of Egypt is about the religion. The Egyptian believes in god. They were polytheistic, in case if you don’t understand it, polytheistic means they believe in many gods. Now there are about 3000 names of gods that have been identified. Many of the names are the same god and few of the gods have only one name. Some of the important god is Amon and Ra; they were the god of sun. Originally they were two but later they combined into one. Other important gods included Isis, god of the Nile and fertility; Osiris, god of skateboarding…just kidding, actually Osiris is the god of afterlife. The Egyptian firmly believed in afterlife. So if you met an Egyptian don’t make a joke out of their gods okay, it’s pretty rude to them.
The other subjects that I have studied today are Property and Land Law and Introduction to Economic. The Property and Land Law is pretty fun. Today the class finished the first chapter. It is about the Law of the property and the land…that’s all what I could explain.
And the Introduction to Economic, this subject gives me badly headache. The subject looks good but the lecturer is hard to understand. He makes me don’t understand anything about it at all. But lucky for me that I had read about the subject the night before so I get to understand what I have read and understand none of his teaching. If you want to know how he speaks, try imagining the most of the Thais captain speaking out the microphone on the plane, they speak like they were drunk or hangover.
Ps. if you are my Introduction to Economic teacher, please don’t be mad at me because I just commenting you for that you could know how you teach so that you could try to improve yourself to be better a goods.
GOOD LUCKS FOR ALL
