Long random post below:
I am currently working on a research project that will combine two of my interests.
It's no secret that Peter Parker/Spider-Man is my favorite fictional character. So this little project does have something to do with him...kinda.
For even longer than I have been a Spider-Man nerd I have been a history nerd. Specifically I've always loved learning about different civilizations, their culture, religion, etc. Even if I don't believe what they believe I find it fascinating. I think its like how someone interprets the world and life. It's interesting how civilizations can be on opposite ends of the world and have parallels in their beliefs and culture.
So there is that fun fact about me I guess. (PS my favorite ancient civilization to learn about is ancient Egypt)
Anyways I was thinking of combining those two interests of mine and I pulled out a journal to do research on how spiders are symbolic in different cultures. And even though I do have arachnophobia, it has been pretty fascinating so far. Some believe they are blessings and others think they are a curse.
I am still doing research and taking notes but expect that post soon if anyone else is interested.
