What is your sign?
So I am doing this big project/research paper on something that has to do with Greeks and ancient...world, basically. I chose to do the Zodiac and everything that intitles. Umm, I have some research I typed up about each sign of the zodiac. (Don't worry, im not some freak without a life, I had to type up the stuff before and I just copyed and pasted) It's very interesting and I think you'll enjoy. That is if you belive in Greek Mythology, O'well, It's fun. Well I'll let everyone get to whatever and I hope you learn somethign about yourself.
