Chinese Ghost Stories

What I saw and observed with one of the chinese ghost stories is how my own perspective and view of how The Return of Yan Zhenjing impacted me in a new way. The main topic of this story for me is the battle between Zhenjing and Xilie and how their fight and confrontation interests me in a narrative point of view. What I found interesting was Zhenjing’s motivation and faith in the son of heaven along with fighting for heaven and earth while his opponent fought for rebels, thieves, and murderers with no belief in anything. I found it interesting on what they fought for and how they were going to attain their goals with completely different motives in mind. In my opinion I would only change how their goals would be accomplished and what would happen afterwards for the future along with the future of the story. From my point of view I would have personally wanted to see more of their backstories and what caused Zhenjing and Xilie to fight to where they are now.  I would want to know more of the meaning behind it along with their thought process on their true intentions not only for their people and themselves but to the world. I would want to know how they would impact the world in a different way from my own perspective. Even though Zhenjing dies the son of heaven takes over and keeps fighting for his beliefs. I would want to know what the end goal would be and what would be accomplished when everything was said and done with their fights. In my perspective I would have routed for the side of heaven to win but I would want to see both perspectives of the story like a first person viewpoint of how they became who they are now and it shows more of the characters purpose in the long run.

Future in 15 Years and 50 Years

What do you think the future will be like in 15 years? I believe the future will have a more advanced society with technology surrounding and becoming more and more dependent in our lives. VR haptic suits will be created and virtual reality will be a very popular use I believe, augmented reality will take over phones and phones will be far more superior and I believe there will be more wearable technology that more and more people will use. Overall, more wearable tech in 15 years and starting a colony on Mars. What do you think the future will be like in 50 years?  Society will have a different landscape and technology will be everywhere you look in this time period. The first would be how I could see bigger and more expanded cities but way more people than ever before. There would be more advanced ways of traveling. Space travel to other planets would be possible along with a society on Mars for sure. Wearable tech all over someone, clothes may have tech inside them while society h

Interview With a Vampire

I found this novel to be quite interesting with how a vampire’s life is along with his experiences. I found it interesting that Louis the main protagonist explains his life story on his life before and as a vampire. The main idea I want to get across with this novel is the conflict between Lestat, Claudia, and Louis and how it affects their story and perspective on the story. In my opinion, Louis should have escaped Lestat the vampire villain sooner without the consequence of Claudia being turned into a vampire. In my perspective I find it interesting that Lestat teaches Claudia how to kill others but Louis and Claudia start to hate Lestat and try to go against him. I find it interesting how both conflicts of Louis and Lestat grows and evolves into a warlike atmosphere with the two. In my perspective I would want Claudia to attack and fight Lestat with more training and advanced training from Louis to stop Lestat along with their dire experiences. I would want to find a way to see all

The Anubis Gates by Tim Powers

In this story The Anubis Gates by Tim Powers that I found to be interesting in my opinion was the entire books theme and purpose with how time travel works and how old egyptian magicians face off against the british empire in Egypt. One thing that I observed was how Doyle a character that is trying to protect the present along with the british finds himself in a new body in the past in an attempt to stop magicians and Romany from altering time with the time gate. The main idea that I discovered was how time and space have to stay in equilibrium in order to protect the past along with saving present/future of Egypt and the british. I found it interesting how the british and the ancient egyptian pharaohs and magicians from the past try to take back Egypt in the future which is the present time for the briish. Another part of this story that is really interesting on my take is how they use time gates to time travel from time period to time period to try and save Egypt from Egypt’s past.
