Writing is something that has always been difficult for me. I’ve always been a bit of a perfectionist‚ but instead of it being a driving force‚ it’s been more of a dead weight. I worry about everything and if it’s perfect‚ okay‚ just right‚ or downright terrible. Because of my perfectionism‚ I find it difficult to start or finish work‚ sometimes even both.

1984 by George Orwell talks about one’s life in a dictatorial society. During my progress of reading‚ I realized how simple I used to think the world is. This book shows a different style of governing‚ which leads to a different way of surviving in this dictatorial society. The story introduces the “Big Brother is watching you” idea which seems to brainwashed everyone. People either truly believed or they pretended to believe this Ingsoc political ideology.
