“For Jung, there are two kinds of shadow: one consists of the possibilities in life that we reject because of certain choices we have made. The person we choose to be, for example, automatically creates a dark double- the person we choose not to be.”
-from, “Care of the Soul,” by Thomas Moore

Even in Sleep by Cirilo F. Bautista, National Artist for Literature in the Philippines.
“A poet to me is the topmost kind of writer in litertaure. God is a poet. You don’t hear God telling short stories. God speaks in poetry, lines, and verses.”
Cirilo, who was edified under the hands of one of the most sought-after universities that concentrate on the field of art and literacy was touted for his dedication and contribution to Philipine Literature, sparking nationalism and marking zeal on the hearts of the Filipino youth. Pursuing a degree in writing wasn’t always the plan for his educational endeavors; he wanted to paint and attend the UST College of Fine Arts in hopes of becoming an painter. However, due to his family’s financial instability, he then took a left turn and pursued writing instead which only requires a pencil and a piece of paper. His savvy in writing poetry, essays, epics, novels, and the like secured him the title of National Artist for Literature in 2015.

no powers , who is winning, mar'i or jake?
what is Damian and Jake's relationship like?
do the Grayson babies ever go to college, if so , what are they studying
1) It’s a real REAL close call between these two, though only Mar’i slightly triumphs over her brother via exploiting relatively smaller size between them
2) The relationship Jake has with his Uncle is one of mutual trust, closeness and this overall energy feeling like the two are cousins in a weird way especially given said Uncle is only 2 1/2 years older than Jake.
3) Mar’i would take up a double major of Biology BA and Astronomy BA while Jake in turn takes up a similar BA major in both Litertaure and Economics and Finance

“Le Fanu’s Victorian novella Carmilla offers one of the first extensive accounts of the vampiric femme who (…) threatens to destroy young and untainted foils. She departs dramatically from Romantic villainesses (…) who embody a departure from Byronic portrayals of the aristocratic vampire. Though Le Fanu was associated with the sensation novel genre, he denied connections to its most popular writers (…).  Le Fanu’s Carmilla (…) employed such sensational framing devices as first-person narration, detailed medical testimony, and female doubling. This tale was one of the first of its kind to rewoke Romantic accounts of disguised female demons in search of physically appealing yet vulnerable female prey” (p.97)

I was always during high-school at school competitions, first sports, then arts and then litertaure. For my last competition I presented an oral about Dante’s Divine Comedy, but I didn’t win.

"I care," he said in a trembling voice. "I care so much that I do not know how to tell you it without seeming inconsequential to how I feel. Even if I am distant at times and seem as if I do not want to be with you, it is only because this scares me, too."
The Goddess Test, Aimee Carter

“Carmilla embodies the breakdown of social boundaries that Laura has subscribed to all her life: courting rituals, accepted behavior between young women, and specifically the separation of waking and dreaming” (p. 98)
