Well, I better get use to writing about current events because I'm going to have to write three of them each week for the whole year :( Anyway, here's the first event I'm going to be talking about:
The reason why I chose this to write about is because this talks
about the Gladiators and the Roman Coliseum, and I was just there in July! That’s
right, I was at the Roman Coliseum and the pictures I took are right at the
bottom of this post. It was so cool! I mean, it’s one thing to see it on TV or
in the movies, but it’s a completely different feeling when you go see it in
person. Now, back to the story. This story talks about the gladiator school
that was found in Austria. It was found east to the capital, Vienna. After
watching this, I was like, “It’s weird that they found a gladiator school in
Austria, but it’s so cool that they were able to use radar technology to get a computer
simulation of what the school used to look like in the third century. Since it’s
a school, it was probably used to get people ready to fight in the coliseum in
Rome.
When I was at the coliseum in Rome, I saw something like a
maze below. I thought that it would be fun to play down there, but then I thought
about how it must be easy for the lions to find its prey and how hard it was
for the gladiator to escape from the lion and kill it. Now, I’m known for
having bad memory, especially when it comes to anything related to history, so
don’t mind me if I’m completely wrong about this: I remember my tour guide saying something about how the whole
place was flooded with blood. Just thinking about that creeps me out. Are they
the lions’ blood, or the gladiators’ blood? Now I really don’t want to play
down there lol.
OK, that’s it for this week! I made it through my first week of blogging! Let’s see how long I can keep this up. Well, I hope you guys enjoyed my posts so far, and see you next week! Until then, see ya!
