Themyth that I choose a celebrity about was Narcissus. The celebritythat I chose that I think most represents Narcissus is Heidi Montag.I choose her because last year, she had 10 plastic surgeries in oneday to make herself look better. Narcissus who is so beautiful diedbecause he liked to look at himself. The plastic surgeries made HeidiMontag lookbetter in her eyes because she wasn't beautiful enough. So shechanged herself to be more beautifulso she could look at herself in the mirror all day. Below is thelink to her storyof plastic surgery.

3. Create a poem alluding to a myth.
MyBride-to-Be
Thevigorous hours of labor
Butall the effort worked in my favor
Herlifelessness overwhelmed me
Thereshe stood
MyBride-to-Be
Thewaxy ivory glistening in the sun
OI wish she could breed me a son
AsI scamper closer to her lifeless self
Iwould give anything for her
