DANG IT YOU'RE OFFLINE LAURA. NICE JOB.
Okay so why an owl Duolingo? Why do people think the owls are super wise they can just rotate their heads and hear things from far away...
Well, I know that it's Athena's main symbol/animal, and she's the goddess of wisdom. I don't know, maybe it has something for that.
Yeah, but is the owl a sign of wisdom because it was Athena's symbol or was Athena's main symbol an owl because it represents wisdom?
No, I'm asking which came first. I was basically asking if because it was Athena's symbol it became a sign of wisdom, or if the owl was ALREADY a symbol of wisdom before, and then since it was a sign of wisdom it was made her symbol.
No, I know, I think they were at the same time. Athena thought that is was wise, so she made it her symbol. I'm not completely sure though, you could probably just look it up :)
Yeah. I just signed up for Epic Reads. You guys should, too.
It's a website with a bunch of news on books and such.
I think its an owl because people are stereotypical and they think Owls are super smart. IDK if they actually are.
And more! That "unlock the selection" thing with The Queen sneak peek and exclusive epilogue was from there. And it's only for teen books. And they have tons of stuff.

That's the thing about pain. It demands to be felt.
