<p>I don’t want to guess a year, but the Winter War occurred during the early stages of WWII when the Soviet Union attempted to invade Finland. However, due to glaring strategic errors on the USSR’s part, including Stalin having purged about half the top-ranking officers just prior and electing to send soldier from much farther south so that they would be less likely to feel cameraderie with the Finns, the Red Army thoroughly embarrassed itself, suffering heavy casualities and failing to achieve most of its goals.</p>
<p>Existentialism is a school of philosophical thought, its modern incarnation typically being accredited to the ideas of Friedrich Nietzsche, Soren Kierkegaard, or both, although it did not achieve much popularity (or get its name) until significantly later. There’s no strict definition, but a gross oversimplification would be the idea that there is no intrinsic purpose to the universe or to life (human or otherwise), but that as conscious beings we have the freedom and the capability to forge a definition for our own individual existences. Existentialism is notable because, unlike most philosophical movements, it was accompanied by a movement in the fine arts, particularly literature, which counted my favorite playwright Samuel Beckett among its members.</p>
<p>I am.. I had to read 2 books for AP Lit.. I read Animal Farm the middle of June.
A Tale of Two cities on the other hand.. 382 pages in my copy and I was only on like page 100 last week.
I start school tomorrow and I have 90 some pages left. :S</p>
<p>I got AP English…
Read a non-fiction book , break it into thirds and write a couple page journal entry on each third.
and the second part of the assignment is to follow a columnist and write like a few pages on 5 of his articles!??!
This is by far the worst, and I’m like 1/3 done on each part.</p>
<p>Next is AP US History…
Read 130 pages of the texbook and take copious notes.
I’m like 1/2 done.</p>
<p>then AP Calc.. no work..<em>thank god!!!</em></p>
<p>and last is AP Comparitive Government, and thankfully minimal work for that, which I managed to do already.</p>
