//**#1 9/1/09** Please describe Ulysses-what does he look like and act like? Try to be specific


 * Ulysses was a fearsome leader in Greek. He is smart and clever. He could be also selfish sometimes. In chapter 1 when he found the treasure, the put all of his treasure and gold in his boat to his home town.

In front cover of this book, there is a picture of Ulysses. He has a beer on his face that goes up to his face. The color of his hair is blonde. In his head, he is wearing an armor hat. His skin is dark. He looks like he is very angry about the fight. He looks really strong and brave in this picture. Also he has many white hairs and wrinkles. So he looks really old. This was the appearance of Ulysses.

Ulysses was a great leader in Greek. He was a strong and brave man. He takes danger to save other people’s life. Also he is really smart and clever. This is why he is a great Hero in Greek. **//

//#**2 Why did Ulysses' men betray him and open the bag of winds from Aeolus? What happened to those men?**

Ulysses' man betrayed him and opened the bag of wind because the man thought that Ulysses was not dividing a great sack of treasure that Aeolus gave. When Ulysses was sleeping, the mens were trying to open the bag with the knife but the bag was twisted in a strange knot. So It didn't come out. When the men scratched with the knife, suddenly the winds screamed and went crazy and the wind which were in there went back into the air, and went back again to where they first arrived, the Bronze Wall. Their mans were about to arrive in their home town but because of those greedy mans, they couldn't arrive to their home.//

What would it be like to live on Cannibal Beach? What problems would it create to have a quicker cycle of day and night? How do you think this kept Ulysses from discovering what the trees were**?

It would be really demanding to live on Cannibal beach because it's different from where I live and the ogres live at the Cannibal beach.. Also, the lack of supply will make hard to live on the Cannibal Beach. If day and night change fast then it would be hard to know the time and you will have problems in the night. Also, since it is dark it will be hard to get food and shelter. Because it was too dark, Ulysses thought that the ogre's leg was a tree and the mens were dead by the ogres.

**What does he decide to do? Have you ever been in a situation that required you to make an important decision on you own? How did you decide what to do?**

Since the ghost was not thrust worthy, Ulysses ignored the ghost advice and made his own decision. When the sailor's heard strange sound coming from the rock, Ulysses made the ship sail way and turned into circle so that the rock will not follow them. After that, Ulysses decides to go to the Sun-Titan, which is Thrinacia. When I was 5th grade, I had to make a decision about going to summer school or not. I wanted to go to summer camp to learn or play and I also wanted to stay in Korea and play all the time. I decided to go to the Summer camp because you could learn many things and also have a good memory about it with all the friends. This was a good decision of myself.
