Macbeth Act 4 - Riddles and Images!

      This is my image about the first apparition. It is very simple to show how and what they are talking. I feel that the apparition should have much power.

      Here is my second image. This time I drew a horrible skull to show bloody. Then I placed "power" above Macbeth's head.

     I drew a lion and a alive tree. In the image, the tree is fighting and catching the lion. It shows that Macbeth will never be defeated until Birnam Wood marches to fight hime at Dunsinane Hill. I prefer to draw them as cartoons because I love cartoons and they are cute and easy for understanding.

Twittering

It is my first time to use twitter. It's a wonderful experience for me to use it. I heard "twitter" from one of mu friend before, but I didn't have a chance to register one. Now, I have a twitter account! There are so many media tools that we can use to get imformation, to chat with friends, to make connaction with others in the whole world. Internet is amazing that I don't even know how it works. However, It had been used everywhere before I was born. Some media tools I am useing are pretty useful and easy for starters, such as Facebook, Blog, Hotmail, and Wechat. I find that twitter is also a great tool to use. The first thing after I registered twitter is to followed Avril Lavigne.  That is awesome! I will recommed all my friends to use twitter so that I can have more people to follow to!

Macbeth Act 1 - Character profile!

       Macbeth

 After reading the first Act in the play "Macbeth".  I pick the main character who is named Macbeth, a Scottish general. At the beginning, he plays as a brave hero who gained recognition because of his battlefield valor. However, his character status seems to change after he encounters three witches with his friend, Banquo. The witches predict that Macbeth shall be Thane of Cawdor. I start to realize Macbeth has a very deep impatient ambition. He calls himself Thane of Cawdor, "Glamis, and thane of Cawdor! The greatest is behind. Thanks for your pains." ((I.iii.119-120). Macbeth also has a thought to murder King Duncan in order to let the prophecy come true.

I feel a horrible, gloomy and tragic atmosphere when I am reading and watching the play. I am wondering why those witches have such power to determine the future. On another hand, if there is no witches and no prophecy, will Macbeth’s destiny be changed? In my opinion, the prophecy from the witches is the reflection of what Macbeth is thinking about in his deep mind. After he knows his “destiny”, he has a perfect excuse to commit crime which is to murder King Duncan. Because of the prophecy, no matter what he does, he will still be Thane of Cawdor. Macbeth starts to play an evil role in the play.

      I hope to see that Macbeth can realize his mistake before he murder King Duncan. His amdition makes him to lost himself and lost the spirit to be a general.
 

Macbeth Act 1 - Destiny?

           The three witches are decisive roles in the play. In the first scene, the witches say that they will meet Macbeth very soon. Also, in scene three of Act one, they tell Macbetn that he is going to become king of Scotland and tell Banquo, he shall generate a line of kings. The prophecies have the great influence for Macbeth. It is very important that Macbeth think it will come true or not. If Macbeth do not believe those three witches, everything is not going to happen like the prophecies. Another possible that i am thinking about is what the witches say are the reflection of what Macbeth is thinking about. Shakespere creates three witches to show the ambition of Macbeth.
      
          Well, i think our dentiny is always changing may because of one important decision and one important person. No one can pre-determined our destiny but all people want to. Although we cannot pre-determined our future, we still can do things that may have good efforts to our future.

Macbeth Act 1 -- First Thoughts

        Before reading the first Act, I know Macbeth is one of Shakespeare's "Tragedies". The other three "Tragedies" are Hamlet, Othello, and King Lear. Macbeth is the shortest tragedy but the darkest one among the four tragedies. It takes place in Scotland. The play mainly talks about how a brave general who called Macbeth becomes a curel killer at last.

        I know it will be a tough reading for me because Shakespeare's plays are really hard to understand. Although, it is a big challenge for me, I will try my best to learn more about the play.

       After reading scene 1 and scene 3 in Act one, Macbeth and Banquo meet three witches, who prophesy that Macbeth shall be Thane of Cawdor, and Banquo's children will secceed him on the throne. Macbeth's ambition is totally showed in the play. It is hard to imagine what is going on next. I cannot wait to read the next scene!
