DUE WED 3/14 - Personal Reflection (Plato)

1) Recall a time that you heard a statement of “fact” that was later found to be untrue. It can be from a parent, a teacher, a friend, a government official, a book, or a film. How did you find out it was untrue and how did it make you feel? Did it change your outlook on anything?

I remember this one thime when one of my clos friends told me that every year you eat at least a spiders in your sleep; thats why sometimes whe you wake-up thats why you have that bump on you lipe he said. It sounded so real and so true that I scanned every word he said in to my brain. It was so creepy to now know that each year I scarf down 8 nasty spiders. When I told my aunt she said that what my friend said was not true. She said that it would be hard to swallow a whole spider without feeling it move around in your throat. Now what she said made me really think about what my friend had said. That made me loose some trust in him saying and making my believe that you eat spiders asleep. So when my class went to the science fair in Del Mar I asked some people and they to said no. It started sounding really stupid once I realized that i would be almost impossible to swollow a live spider while sleeping. Even thougth its not true, I still like telling people.
