Monday`s Expectations

 This week I expect to find out  more about the man who wants to take Pip with him to London, especially I want to know if he really wants only good for Pip.  I think there in London will begin the most interesting events. I am interested also if Pip will meet Estella  more or will he forget her.
Well, I continue to read and I will share my realizations with you on Sunday.
Good luck to everybody! Have a nice week and full of success!!!)

Hello my dear friends. How are you? Hope your weekend was wonderful)

And what about your reading? As to me I read some more chapters. Things are getting more interesting. There are great changes in Pip`s
mind. He finishes his education with Mr Wopsle`s aunt as he gets too old. And he realizes that he doesn’t want to be Joe`s apprentice.  There are also many changes in his life and in life of his relatives. Their home is attacked by an unknown, and his sister is a victim. After this she can`t speak, her vision, hearing and memory are affected too. Biddy takes care of her.
In his four year as an apprentice he meets a man, who he once saw at Miss Havisham. This man identifies himself as Jaggers, a lawyer in London. He tells Joe that he is to take Pip from him so that he can have a better life.
I think this man can help him. But it is strange- why he wants to help him. I will read further and  will  understand, I think.

Sunday`s Realizations


Pip visites Ms.`s Havisham house.  He is surprised because it  seems  as though this house and everything in it stuck  in the past. Even all the  clocks are stopped on twenty to nine. Ms. Havisham is dressed in a wedding gown, which looks very old. It looks like she dressed it up  long  time ago, and since then has never put it off. She tells  Pip that she has a strange wish- to see him playing. There Pip also meets a girl, named Estella, who is the same age as him, but she considers herself more superior than others and, therefore, looks elder. She is a pretty girl, but proud as well. It makes Pip to feel embarrassed.
When Pip comes back home his sister questioned him about his visit to Ms.Havisham`s house. She thinks that Ms.Havisham can help him in the future. Pip doesn`t tell his sister the truth what happens in that house, because he doesn`t believe that  his sister will accept such answers. He is afraid  that she will not understand him and will punish him. But Pip tells the truth to Joe. He can`t lie to him. He tells  him about Estella, that she considers him very common. Joe says that it is not good to tell lies and it doesn’t matter are you a common boy or a king, because everyone has a common start before they make something of themselves.
This conversation with Joe and this day became memorable for Pip. It changed Pip`s  thoughts and he decides to make changes in his life.|
I think here starts a new period in Pip`s life. It is very interesting what will happen next.

Expectations!

Hello dear teacher and dear fellows! I`m sorry I`m late with my expectations. But it is better late, than never))
A new week of reading started. It is getting more interesting. I am curious that will happen  with Pip next.
I worry about him, because he lives a very hard life for his age, a life not for a child.  Every time I begin to read, I expect that he will find someone who will love , except his brother- in- law .

Good luck to everybody and have a nice evening!

Realizations


This week I read that nobody find out about Pip`s theft of the pie from his mean sister`s kitchen.  At the beginning he wanted to tell his brother-in- law that he took it, but  , he didn`t. He was afraid that if he tells it to him, he will lose his only friend and his support. He thought that Joe will be disappointed with him. Joe`s attitude was too valuable for Pip.
Pip started learning to read at Mr. Wopsle`s aunt evening school.  Mr. Wople`s aunt had a granddaughter Biddy, who was also an orphan and was brought up by hand like Pip. She helped him to learn to read. 
One night Pip discovered that Joe can`t read. Joe told him that he didn`t learn anything, because he had difficult childhood. Pip wanted to teach Joe. And he also decided that he wants to become a scholar. But he didn`t want his sister find out about this because she was not fond of scholars. They even decided that Pip should teach Joe in secret from his sister.  They both were afraid of her,
Later  Mrs. Joe returned home , She was helping Uncle Pumblechook with his shopping. She teld them that Miss Havisham wants Pip to come and play at her home. She  heard about Pip through Uncle Pumblechook.  He took Pip to Miss Havisham’s home the next day.
She gave Pip a good washing and put him in stiff clothes. She turned him over to Uncle Pumblechook, who took him to his home.
Pip could not understand what for was he supposed to go to Miss Havisham`s home.
