I liked this story, Poe uses a lot of words so that the reader can perfectly imagine what is happening, I also liked the paragraph written in Latin at the beginning of the story, for me it's like a resume of the story.

It's a cute story about a special master-servant relationship, but on the other hand it shows that different cultures crash in their ideals.
I didn't like that much this story, it was interesting but I didn't like it.

For all of you Twilight fans!!
-But I thought it was a good representation, it's hard and cold and it throws rainbows in the sunlight... My heart is just as silent, and it, too, is yours.
-For almost ninety years I've walked among my kind, and yours ... all the time thinking I was complete in myself, not realizing what I was seeking. And not finding anything, because you weren't alive yet.
-I could see it in your eyes, that you honestly believed that I didn't want you anymore. The most absurd, ridiculous concept---as if there were any way that I could exist without needing you!
-Of all the things you could worry about, you worry about my driving.
-Amazing how can something so small be so annoying?
-If you bring her back in less than the perfect condition I left her in, you'll be running with three legs dog
-Its Twilight..
Its the safest time of day for us, the easiest time. but also the saddest in a way.. the end of another day, the return of night. Darkness is predictable, dont you think?

It is a story about a girl. While at the funeral of her own mother, she met this guy whom she did not know. She thought this guy was amazing, so much the dream guy she was searching for that she fell in love with him right then and there but never asked for his name or number and afterward could not find anyone who knew who he was. A few! days later the girl killed her own sister.
Question: What is her motive in killing her sister?
Give this some thought for a while before you check the answer.
Answer: She was hoping that the guy would appear at the funeral again.
If you answered this correctly, you think like a psychopath. This was a test by a famous American psychologist used to test if one has the same mentality as a killer.
914 arrested serial killers took part in this test and 904 answered it correctly.
If you didn't answer correctly - good for you.
If your friends hit the jackpot, may I suggest that you keep your distance

Pretty difficult exam, not because of the questions but because of the time we had.
I mean even if you copy all your answers you don't get enough time to finish it.
Sorry if my answer isn't very long.
