PASSAGE 54 I was a sunny Monday, 9th May, 2013 when I woke up during the mid-
terms. It was my birthday and everything seemed to be the same unlike
last year when I woke up and saw a big birthday cake on the table in the
Nobody seemed to be moved as though they had forgotten that it was my
birthday. My dad went to work without wishing me 'happy birthday' as
he used to do every year. But I didn't utter a word. My mum did the same
thing; in fact no one in the entire house wished me anything. I felt very
sad and bad thinking no one cared about me. Gradually, they all left and I
was the only one in the house.
None of my friends even called to wish me 'happy birthday', not even
my closest friends; Anita and Lorretta. My cousin, Ransford who
promised to be the first to call me did not even 'flash' me. I spent all day
thinking about the reason why no one bothered to say anything to me.
At about 8.00pm, my mum and dad returned from work and still said
nothing. I was about to go to my room when Dad said, “Ama go and buy
me a pencil" I was shocked because my dad never used pencil. When I
returned, the lights in our house were out. When I opened the door, the
lights came in and everyone shouted, "HAPPY BIRTHDAY !" I was so
stunned. Ransford and virtually all my friends were there. Only God
knows how my parents managed to organise them.

9th May is Ama's birthday but on 9th May 2013 she was expecting a very exciting birthday but when she woke up everything was normal everyone was following their daily routine. She was very disappointed that no one remembered her birthday, not even his closest friends Anita and Lorretta. Her cousin, Ransford also forgot to wish her that made her very sad. But when her father asked to buy him the pencil she was shocked because his father never uses the pencil. But when she returned home she was surprised because everyone wished her "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" and celebrated it.

gilgamesh is an epic hero from birth, as he's brought to the world by the hand of several gods who shaped him with the goal of saving humanity. there's a passage from the text that reads "the glorious sun shamash bestowed upon him glory; adad the terrible god of storms bestowed upon him courage. the great gods perfected his magnificence beyond all others, terrible like the great wild bull". this is a great example that show some of the super-human qualities that the gods gave gilgamesh upon his birth.

as gilgamesh grows he has to face many challenges that put his heroism to task. the courage he displays along the way, prove that he's ready to live up to the godly qualities brought upon him. at one point he has to overcome a wild beast by the name of hubamba "whose roar is a flood, whose mouth is fire, whose breath is death", as the text reads. the actions taken by gilgamesh, beating the beast with the use of his super-human force, examplify why he shoud be thought of as an epic hero.

hope this !
