I think the unit I am most excited for is the Greek Unit. The reason for this is because I am a huge Greek fan and love anything and everything that has to do with Greek Gods or stories. Another unit that interest me is the Japanese unit because, as of 3 years ago, I have fallen in love with all different types of Asian films and Japanese happens to be my favorite because of the way they show the action.

The reason that I chose this image because it shows what I am most excited about.  As a kid I have had a fascination with Gods and Goddess and to this day still do.  I find it interesting to read all the stories about the different Gods and Goddess and find out the different ways they were revered whether it be Egyptian or Greek ones.  It is fascinating how many cultures have different ones they praised and how each one was praised for a specific reason.
