Comparing Alice
During the clip we watched in class it was interesting to see how Burton portrayed the characters in his movie. The Dormouse was very small in the movie when it seemed in the book with the pictures that the dormouse was a decent size and wasn't that small compared to the other characters as well. The hatter was very different in my opinion with the way he acted in the movie which in my opinion i didn't like it at all. In an honest opinion i thought of the Hatter in Burton's story very creepy and freaky. No Thanks. The March Hare was the character i liked the most in the movie clip that we watched i liked that he was very weird and very short with his answers and very cautious with what he said. Alice i picture the same in any format that i see her in. I didn't think she was very different in Burton's movie maybe other than her appearance but overall i viewed her as the same as the book itself. The Tea party in Burton's clip definitly gave me a better view of what the tea party was like in the story. Overall i think Alice and Wonderland is crazy in it self and is a very interesting story.

Alice and wonderland perspective
The character that i am going to be is the dormouse. The dormouse is at the lunch table with the march hare and hatter. Now from the dormouse point of view. "I would really like if these two dumb people would stop bugging me and using me as a couch. I am very tired and want to go to sleep in peace and quiet. Hmm as i sleep who is this new person who sits at the table. I have never seen a creature like this before she said she goes by the name Alice and claims to call her self a little girl. She seems very interesting and sporadic. She doesn't like to be bossed around at all by the hare and hatter which i don't like to either but have to deal with it because its 2 vs 1 and they are bigger than i am. O well eventually they will leave me alone once i start to fall asleep numerous times. Why do they wake me again and force to tell me a story...i have to think of one or else they wont leave me alone i think i will tell the old story i know about the teracle well. This is pointless to tell the girl is annoying and so are the hare and hatter. I think the girl finally had enough she finally got the hint to leave while im still stuck here getting tossed into a tea pot. One day they will receive harm for what they did you will see. Ill get them back one of these days."

Victorian Era
Well to be perfectly honest i do not know that much about the Victorian Era but ill give it my best shot. So bare with me!!! Well the Victorian Era was when the queen Victoria had her reign of power and became very wealthy and powerful. This was the time when new art styles arouse and other ways to run a society. I was reading a little bit about the Victorian Era and they said to be the start of the modern era which i find very interesting. Different lifestyles came into play and people started living in the elegant era and became very petite and prestigious. It was a modern class of royalty. Middle classes starting growing and social classes were reforming and transforming. I found it very interesting how this era set the trend today of the social classes and jump started the world into the modern era. Queen Victoria is a boss. I might sound smart in this post but i did a little reading on this topic so that i would have something to write about because i had no clue before what the Victorian Era was all about.

My Favorite Book
My favorite book has to be the Bio on Micheal Jordan. I encountered this book when i was entering my freshmen year in high school. Why i like this book is, because i like learning about the process legendary athletes had taken and the road they took to get to there legendary status. It was real interesting learning about Micheal Jordan who in my opinion is the greatest basketball player ever. It was real interesting learning about his past and how he became who he is today. Also it was interesting to learn that he was cut from his high school team his freshmen year but persevered through it and become the greatest basketball player of all time. The Micheal Jordan bio is my favorite book for the reasons i described in my blog.
