My Twitter Experience
I did not have a Twitter account so this is my first time experience tweeting. This is an interesting experience because I rarely incorporate with any social networking program, including facebook. Having previously thought these kinds of social networking to be only a more convenient way to connect with friends, it never once occurred that a site like Twitter would have legitimate use. Little did I know, it is also an efficient way to connect with varies topic of interests, thus easily getting information of such. My first impression of Twitter after that realization is positive; perhaps it could be quite beneficial and come in handy. Especially if I were to record a list of thoughts, about a specific experience and use it kind of like a modern, digital, and very public diary.
This assignment is quite challenging, as I have to pretend that I am Macbeth and to spell out what is in his mind during various events. Before starting, extensively studying the play is a must. Given that Macbeth is a tragedy, I believe there are definitely hidden hints in the plot that leads to the trigger of the sad ending. When study, I mainly focus in the personality of Macbeth, and his interaction with other characters to estimate why he had such a response to certain events. In my research, the greatest finding was the discovery that Macbeth is indeed a real historical monarch of Scotland in the period of 1040-1057 of the House of Alpin. I am interested to know more about why Shakespeare chose this particular historical figure to portray his play. Thanks to the classical / modern language translator, it has made my studying easier. However, since modern language inevitably ignores some of the important structure of the classical language (as I think Shakspeare wrote the line in certain written structure for a reason), it is important to study the original text, and not to rely on the translator too much.
