In class today, we talked a lot about philosophy and this painting of a pipe with the words, in French, "This is not a pipe." I didn't really understand what it meant or why in the world we were looking at that picture or what it meant for most of the class. We talked about how it relates to the Allegory of the cave and how things, like the painting can be perceived differently, like how the "not a pipe" was a painting of a picot of a pipe. You could keep going on and on about how it's a picture of painting of a pipe or a picture of a picture, so on.
After we talked for like more than half the class on that, we got into the powerpoint on Greece. I actually am really liking this class, and this seems to be something that I good at, I like learning about  different places like Egypt, Mesopotamia and Greece.
