Born in the Ionian Greek city of Miletus, Aspasia has been mentioned as a conversationalist and adviser in the writings of Plato, Aristophanes, Xenophon, and many others. She has been seen as a hetaera, and in some cases a harlot because of her decision to not marry the father of her son, Pericles. As a figure for all women, she held her independance and education to be the highest of priorities and will always remain a mystery in historical figures.

Journal 9
There seems to already be a holiday for everything ! If I could commemorate anything it would just be youth. Everyday there would be a reason to celebrate this. Whether it be an insane spur of the moment roadtrip to see a band you like or simply just being able to run a mile without being winded. Of course this isn't an 80's movie, nothing that amazing can happen everyday. Being young is not as great of a perk as many make it. Sure there is some good here and there but it goes half and half. The cons of course are being ignored and being underage. Most just want to be able to drive and go as they please, but age comes with responsability. But the on the brightside, we don't have to pay bills or rent. We do not get insane stares for crowd surfing at shows or wearing a bands t shirt. The biggest worry we have is getting through school and making something of ourselves. We strive to prove others wrong, and to carpe the hell out of this diem. That is why if I could commemorate anything, it would be the beauty of being young and careless. Of course, no need to tell the rest of us twice.
