Epithets

Lover of Shoes
I really enjoy collecting shoes. I wouldn't call myself a "sneaker head," as I like collecting dress shoes as well, but I do like my sneaker collection. I have approximately 45 pairs of shoes and am not yet even half-way satisfied. My favorite type of shoes are white sneakers, of which I have 11 pairs. Here's to hoping my wife lets me purchase more!

Fan of Marvel
I enjoy Marvel films. Last summer, I interned at Walt Disney Studios in financial reporting. I had the opportunity to report on all Walt Disney theatrical films, but I enjoyed researching the Marvel films the most. I enjoy  stories and the humor in the films.

Visitor of National Parks
National Parks are very beautiful places. I love going to national parks whenever I get the chance. This year I've had the opportunity to visit Yosemite and Bryce Canyon. Hiking the trails gives me a sense of peace.

Cutter of Hair
Getting your hair cut can be expensive, so I've learned to cut my own hair. I started out by watching Youtube videos and following along. If I made a mistake I would go to a professional shop after to get it fixed. Eventually I got the hang of cutting my hair and I've started cutting hair for others, including my wife.

    You sound like an awesome person. I think its so interesting when people have something they love to collect (in your case shoes!) I am not much of a shoe collector, but think that white sneakers are the best. I too hope your wife lets you get some more!

    You have very well-rounded set of epithets! It seems like you have a creative set of hobbies, which you have aligned with your creative choice of company. Marvel sounds like a wonderful place to
    combine fancy shoes, self-cut hair, and the great outdoors. I hope that you get to incorporate your interests into daily life as you focus on financial reporting. I am also a fan of shoes and national parks--I agree that I hope your wife lets you continue purchasing sneakers!

    Ammon! I can't blame you for finding joy in collecting and wearing good looking shoes. I try to do the same although my collection is not quite at your level, at least in terms of quantity. And as you mentioned I will have to see if that will ever change based on the fact my wife currently thinks I don't need any more... Also what do you charge for a haircut?

Ancient Roman and Christian Morals

Ammon Kou Insalaco CL CV 201 Similarities between Christians and the ancient Romans in the works "Samuel the Lamanite on the Wall" and "The Rape of the Sabine Women" Ancient Roman and Christian Morals Despite small differences in similar morals, the ancient Romans would have found Christianity appealing. Christians and the ancient Romans valued honor. Both societies also valued chastity. Both societies also valued war, specifically the victory of it. Though these morals have slightly different connotations and levels of importance, the differences are not significant, and the ancient Romans could have easily accepted Christianity. Creusa and Aeneas The value and moral of honor is highly sought after in ancient Roman and Christian societies. This is evidenced in Christian societies by the line in the hymn Onward Christian Soldiers , in which victory yields honor “ On, then, Christian soldiers, on to victory” (Baring-Gould 2). And in The Aeneid

Grecian Honor vs. BYU Honor

Ammon Kou Insalaco CL CV 201 Grecian Honor vs. BYU Honor Though hundreds of years separate the ancient Greeks and the modern-day BYU student, the notion of honor holds immense importance in both societies. These societies regard honor very highly, although the idea of honor differs greatly between them. While honor holds a spiritual meaning to BYU society, it holds a temporal meaning to the ancient Greeks. To gain honor in BYU society is to overcome internal conflict, while in ancient Grecian society, it is to overcome outer conflict. Although losing honor in BYU society can have negative consequences, it is not as severe as in ancient Grecian society. Unquestionably, the concept of honor is important in a civilization. Even though BYU society and ancient Greek society esteem it to the highest degree, the meaning and value of honor is different. For the BYU student, honor is defined by the Honor Code, which provides protection. “[The honor code rules] are to protect us,
