The dance features five sensuously sinewy assertive women. It strikes with its sensual, bravura movements. In this dance, a contemporary view of women’s sinuous strength and arrogance underneath the exterior of gentleness, women proclaim they are the stronger sex.

Wazzup Pilipinas Original Short Stories Series: The Murder Case

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Id is the most basic part of the personality, and wants instant gratification for our wants and needs. For me, the Id of the story was when Rebecca Bloom, the main character, got to her instinct and started investigating about the case of her parents. She didn’t know what to do at first until she figured out there were only four people in their house that time including her. She kept investigating and found out that the suspect was her.

The ego deals with reality, trying to meet the desires of the id in a way that is socially acceptable in the world. For me, the ego was when Nathalie confessed that Rebecca was the suspect but Rebecca kept on denying it. Rebecca gained some pride during that time. Another part was when Rebecca kept on arguing with her mom instead of saying sorry to her.

The superego develops last, and is based on morals and judgments about right and wrong. For me, the superego was when Rebecca knew that she did it. It wasn’t said in the story but somehow being the author, Rebecca gained some conscience in herself after knowing what really happened. She didn’t expect that she could do such a thing due to depression with her family.
