For years Percy Jackson has been fighting against all odds to protect what he believes in. There are many books to his story, but The Last Olympian is definitely the best of the best.
Kronos, the main titan in this glorious book, has been trying for eons to get out and take over humanity and the Olympians. Finally he has gotten out and has gained enough power to take over may monsters and kill may of Innocent lives.
There is a prophecy that says that at the age of 16 that a young hero will save the entire way of life... will it be Percy or will it be someone else?
Julius Caesar
Julius Caesar not one of my favorite books. Surprisingly, this play of Shakespeare was much less interesting to read than much of his other plays or stories. For me the read was very complicated, and the text was very confusing to read because of all the old terms and phrases used in Julius Caesar.
The first thing that made me lose my attention was all the very long and confusing phrases that the book used. Usually I will not have a problem with that, but in this book it was just to complicated for me. I didn't understand what they were talking about most of the time, and also I would not get the complicated ideas, feelings, or thoughts that Shakespeare was implying at the time.
Another reason I did not like Julius Caesar was because the book was not really about Julius Caesar, it was mainly about Bruits and his decision on weather or not to join the conspiracy to kill Caesar. I think that if a book or play or story is going to be titled after someone, then I think that they should be the main character, not the secondary character.
Julius Caesar was actually the first work of Shakespeare's that I really did not like. With all of the long and confusing phrases, to the play not being about Caesar, I just could not get into the book and enjoy it. But if I was to see the play I am sure that I would change my mind.

What does my name mean?
There are over 6 Billion people on earth, there are just as many names, but I happen to just have one of those names, and that is Nathan. I'm sure that every person on earth has a story of how their name came to be, my story is not long or very interesting, but it's a story.
By now you have already found out that my name is Nathan, well Nathan Edwards, anyway here is my story. About 16 years, 14 days, and 15 hours ago I was born. My mother has just suffered an agonizing 8 hours of labor, and had not really thought about my name. Well, what I mean to say is that she did think of a name for me, but at that point in time that was the leas of her worries. My name was going to be John Thomas Edwards, but when the Dr. came into the room, holding me, he asked what my name was going to be. My mother and father looked at each other and both said "Nathan." Although every time I ask my parents why they named me Nathan the story changed, but this was the first one that told me, so I'm sticking with it.
Nathan means "Gift from God," I personally think that this meaning is both truthful and, yet wrong. The reason I think that the meaning is truthful is because if you ask any of my family they will probably tell you that I am a gift from God. But the reason I think that the saying is wrong is because I think that maybe I might be a gift from God, but just because I'm a "Gift from God" doesn't mean that I am going to live up to all the expectations that everybody has put on me.
For example, I am a big procrastinator and right now I am doing this paragraph right before its due, also I have put in a lot of "its and 'is's" in this paragraph when there are not supposed to e any. anyway that's me and how my name came to be. Later!
