Before last

Before last session, we had the chance to hear Prof Vielma's oral prsentation which was called Blue, blue, blue pictures of you. This story presented a great contemporary issue which it was drug abuse, once again! Through the story the author showed the two main characters' lifestyles and the way they wanted to change eachother's life. But why would they want to change their life? Why don't they like their lives? The author author attempts to answer these questions through the whole story. As we can see not only drug abuse is present in the story a lot of contradiction about life itself is present as well. Definitely contemporary aspects from contemporary writers. After the presentation, we discussed the story called Fermi and Frost. This story is how technology is used, and if we, human beings, should trust technology or not. The short story also has "gaps" in order for the reader to have his or her own interpretation.
