This dream again, of a clock. The clock keeps falling but it never reaches the ground or it will break.
I am the clock, and I can’t break.
My life has always been controlled by time. Time. It's such a vicious circle. Torturing you until you break. But you can't break, and shouldn't break if you are a vampire.
Tick-Tock Tick-Tock.
But I feel like I'm breaking.
RINGGGG.
“What time is it?”
Headaches, restless sleep, and memories.
Sometimes it is almost not there, while at other times that is all there is, and the pain always coincides with memories. It is less a headache and more a memory ache. A life ache.
No matter what I do, it never goes completely. I have tried everything. I’ve drunk liters of water, had lavender-scented baths, listened to lute music and the sound of waves on a beach, lain in the dark, slow-breathed, meditated, did a yoga course, stopped drinking caffeine, turned the brightness down, but still the headaches stays, as stubborn as a shadows, not leaving my head.
For now bullet Journaling is all that helps.
I got up, back in my grand room.
It has too many memories. Too many ghosts. I suppose the way I understand my life is as a kind of Russian doll, with different versions inside other versions, each one enclosing the other, whereby the life before isn’t seen from the outside but is still there.
For years, I thought the key was to keep building new shells on top of the old ones. To keep moving into something else in the eyes of society. But sometimes it turns hard. You lose the strength to keep building new shells. You get tired.
My mom always said to never give up hope. But you lose hope as time passes by. Now I have a different life, a different family.
In this life. I am a queen.
One week and one day before it happened yesterday.
Two boys fighting near an impromptu pen of pigs.
An apple stall.
A bread stand.
Radishes.
Lace.
Broken Bracelet.
A girl, no more than ten, carrying a basket full of plums.
Roast goose stalls on both sides of the road.
Lettuce lying in a puddle.
A well-dressed blind woman being led around by a scruffy-looking orphan girl.
Lame beggars.
I smile, I love this town, but even though my face is happy my eyes tell a different story as people say, my eyes show pain and grief.
I’ve lived through a lot, but you can find the best in everything. I now have six sisters and am a princess, the dream of any little girl.
But the pain doesn't fade.
A servant from the palace runs up to me. He is wearing the palace uniform which is all blue and has gold stripes. The queen assigned it recently after the war started.
The war with Dragon shifters, repulsive and manipulative creatures who only want power. Now they want all the land, but did they really think vampires would go down without a fight. The servant that is in front of me is out of breath, his voice is ragged as if he ran for a long time, from the corner of my eye I see sweat coming down his forehead.
“YOUR MAJESTY, THE QUEEN...SHE.. SHE IS DEAD, MURDERED THROUGH THE HANDS OF A DRAGON!”
The crowd around me stops, people gasp. I just stare, I don't know how to react, I’ve learned to adapt to certain problems but this... People start whispering and a man comes up and says.
“LIES! YOU TELL LIES!” He was holding a lute.
My mother used to sit beside my bed, singing in French and playing her cherrywood lute, her fingers running fast across the strings as if escaping something, now I know what it was.
“He doesn’t tell lies, our servants swear to tell only the truth, if he says the queen is dead..that is the truth,” I say.
The man looks at me bewildered, “Well, who’s going to run the kingdom then, right now during war. It's bad but without a leader it's going to be pure chaos.”
I look at him and at everyone surrounding me and say the words that I now regret.
“I am the new queen.”
1 week before it happened, back to normal.

Explanation:
Parallelism is the repetition of the same grammatical structure inside a sentence. The purpose of using parallel sentences is to make them sound better as well as to make them easier to understand. Parallelism is often used when we provide examples or list items in a sentence.
Let's use sentence 1 as an example:
1. We have begun to exercise more, to get regular check-ups, and dieting.
We are listing the things we have begun to do. Out of the three things listed, two use the structure "to + verb", but one uses "verb + ing". Thus, the structure is not parallel. To correct it and make the sentence sound better, we can make them all use the structure "to + verb):
1. We have begun to exercise more, to get regular check-ups, and to diet.

6. In a complex sentence like, "Although she's late to meetings, she always contributes good ideas," where is the emphasis?
O A. On the independent clause
OB. On the adverbial clause
O c. On the predicate
O D. On the dependent clause
Answer:
A. On the independent clause
Explanation:
The question above presents a complex sentence, which is the sentence formed by a dependent clause and an independent clause. The dependent clause is one that cannot have a coherent meaning on its own. In the sentence above, this clause is "Although she's late to meetings."
The independent clause, on the other hand, is one that manages to convey a coherent meaning even alone. In the sentence shown above, this clause is "she always contributes good ideas," which is also the point of greatest emphasis in the sentence, where the main point of the sentence is presented. In this case, we can affirm that the emphase of the sentence is presented in the independent clause.
Which sentence provides evidence to support the writer’s claim?

You have read passages from the novels The Georges and the Jewels and Black Beauty: The Autobiography of a Horse. Both were written in the first-person point of view.
Write an essay in which you compare the way the authors use the first-person point of view to develop the characters.
Be sure to cite specific examples from both passages.
Both stories are below! :D
Answer:
In this essay I will talk about the passages from the Georges and the Jewels and Black Beauty: The Autobiography of a Horse. These two passages talk about horses riding and teaching in a scenic matter and in a first person view of the trainer and the horse.
With the the first passage (the Georges and the Jewels) they develope the characters by the way they enter the scene, actions they committed and how they talk to the other characters. You can tell the dad is very passionate about horse riding, wise and has been doing this for quite some time. He's wise and passionate because of the talk he has with Abby in paragraphs 8,9 and 10. He is also done it for a long time with the evidence "I started riding when I was 3 and started helping my dad train the horses when I was 8...". Abby is a child that doubts herself in her ability to train this certain, thinking its impossible. Hou can tell it has bucked her multiple times when she depicts the situation of when you get bucked perfectly and switched into a situation she was in herself. You can see that in these lines: "...you might lie there, as i did, with the wind knocked out of you and you think about how nice it would be to not get back on, because that horse is just dedicated to bucking you off. So that what I did..." This lassage describes characters in a less obvious way. Now on to the next passage.
In the second passage depicts less of the characteristics but more of the experience of the specific character. The horse mentioned in the story is a younger male horse who debates on whether the horse back riding industry is good or bad throughout the passage. He talks as if he is talking in past tense or telling a story. He develops throughout the passage by giving cons then debunking them with pros. At first the horse seems to think that horse back riding is bad but then he changes his mind as seen in: "...and under your chin and no way in the world you can get rid if that nasty hard thing; it is very bad. Yes, very bad. Or atleast I thought so..." The "Master" is described as a gentle and kind person. He was nice to the horse and placed stuff on and "in" the horse quite nicely and less rough. You can see this in: ",what with the nice oats, and what with my masters pats, nice words and gentle ways..." This passage described characters by how they talk and treat other characters. Now I'm going to compare the two and close out the essay
These two passages describe characters in similar and different ways. As we can tell they both describe the characters by dialogue and how other people talk about them. Black Beauty is in the perspective of a horse so the impression of people is different than of a human. In the G.A.T.J they talk more about the father and daughters relationship and how the father knows alot about the horses. That is the end of the essay and how Black Beauty and the G.A.T.J compare in terms of character development.
I hope this helps.
The comparison of the way the authors use the first-person point of view to develop the characters is:
Through their actions.Through their speech.Through their introduction in the scene.What is First Person Point of View?This refers to a writing perspective where an author makes a narration from the perspective of one person using the pronouns "Me", "I", "We", etc.
With this in mind and from the comparison of the texts, there is the use of direct and indirect characterization to describe the personalities and actions of each character.

Read this excerpt from "Hope, Despair, and Memory" by Elie Wiesel and answer the question. Of course we could try to forget the past. Why not? Is it not nature for a human being to repress what causes him pain, what causes him shame? Like the body, memory protects its wounds. When day breaks after a sleepless night, one's ghosts must withdraw; the dead are ordered back to their graves. But for the first time in history, we could not bury our dead. We bear their graves within ourselves. For us, forgetting was never an option. Deducing from context clues, what is the best statement of Wiesel's purpose in writing We bear their graves within ourselves? (A) to entertain through alliteration of "graves" and "ourselves" (B) to educate about the Holocaust (C) to establish connection with his readers (D) to enlighten with comparison of their souls with graves as the resting place for Holocaust victims
Answer:
The best statement of Wiesel's purpose in writing "WE bear their graves within ourselves" is:
D. To enlighten with comparison of their souls with graves as the resting place for Holocaust victims.
Explanation:
Elie Wiesel (1928 - 2016) was an American author originally born in Romania. Wiesel was a survivor of the Holocaust, when Jews were arrested and killed by German Nazis during World War II.
"Hope, Despair, and Memory" was an address given by Wiesel when he received the Nobel Prize. He speaks of his soul and the soul of other survivors as if they were graves in which the ones who were murdered are buried. His intention by comparing souls to graves is to emphasize that the survivors will never be able to forget what happened, that they will always carry, figuratively speaking, those who died within them. The atrocity and injustice were too great to be forgotten.
Italics, as used in the sentences "Only a week ago? One night? One single night?" are used
O to show these are foreign words
O to create irony, the opposite of Wiesel's intended meaning
to show the word is part of dialogue
O to show special emphasis or emotion

Read this sentence: twisting her break between her fingers Marcy jumped whenever anyone enter the room. What method of characterization does the sentence use to describe the character?
This question is missing the answer choices. I was able to find the complete question online. It is as follows:
Read this sentence:
Twisting her braid between her fingers, Marcy jumped whenever anyone entered the room.
What method of characterization does the sentence use to describe the character?
A. thoughts
B. dialogue
C. action
D. appearance
Answer:
The method of characterization used in the sentence is:
C. action.
Explanation:
There are several ways an author can choose to show us something about a character's feelings, state of mind, or qualities. Those ways are called methods of characterization.
In the sentence we are analyzing here, the author uses action to show that Marcy is scared of nervous about something. The fact that she is twisting her braid and jumping so easily whenever anyone comes in is a typical sign of nervousness. Notice that we do not know what Marcy is thinking about. She is not talking to anyone, so there is no dialogue. And, we not know what she looks like at this moment - if she looks pale, or tired, for example. The only possible answer is, indeed, letter C. action.
