1984
We are in a world of uncertainty and we can only guess and make predictions about what tomorrow will bring us. The book 1984 by George Orwell, was written in 1949 with his predictions about the future in 1984, thirty five years later. The part that interested me the most was where Orwell explains how we will no longer think on our own and that our thoughts and emotions would be controlled by the "thought police" for example. It was interesting to read about what a person thought in the past about today's society and read how some of the predictions came true. Freedom was taken away from everyone, they did what they were told and they had to obey, or harsh punishments would take place.

Never again will you be capable of love, or friendship, or joy of living, or laughter, or curiosity, or courage, or integrity. People nowadays can alter their face to look like a completely new person, like how it was mentioned in the book. "Our surgeons can alter people beyond recognition. Privacy was invaded with telescreens and microphones, which were placed everywhere and our privacy is invaded now not as harsh but still invaded with hidden cameras and other devices that invade ones personal life.
