Vampires and the Grim Reaper

So in class today we had to do some writing that wanted us to loop our thoughts starting with the main focal point of fear. Somehow my writings managed to deal with the Grim Reaper and with Vampires. Both of these characters interest me greatly although I don't know exactly what it is about the Grim Reaper that fascinates me so much aside from the fact that it coincides with my fear of death. Now vampires on the other hand have always fascinated me for as long as I can remember. Count Dracula, Lestat, Nick Knight, Lord Byron and Seline are just a few of the characters that I have either read about or seen in movies or television shows that deal with vampires. I have always been intrigued with the thought of living forever and never growing old. The only drawback that I would forsee would be the drinking of blood in order to survive. I'm not sure if I could actually take another persons life in order for me to survive. I think I would probably drink the blood of animals to survive instead. I can see myself as being a kind and noble vampire who is interested in obtaining vast stores of knowledge over time and using it for good. I would love to be a vampire like Blade from those movies in which I have the ability to walk in the daylight and not be hindered by the sun. I guess he would be the best example of the kind of vampire that I would like to be in that he has all the vampire strengths and none of their weakness's. I know that it is not humanly possible for this to occur but I would love to become a vampire and live the rest of eternity never growing any older than I am right now.
