Final Realizations.


Hello dear friends! How are you? Are you through with the reading?

I am glad - I finished to read the "Great Expectations". And I can say that my expectations realized. The main character Pip changed his life a lot, but it cost him too much I think- his relations with people who loved him and worried about him, especially Joe. Pip was so blinded with his new life that he forgot about all that good that Joe did for him, his support while he felt bed, especially when Pip`s sister treated him badly. But at the end Pip understood how stupid he was and that he hurt Joe with such behaviour. And I was very glad to find out that Pip realized his mistake and initiated his relationship with Joe, and Biddy as well. I also was happy that Estella changed her mind and understood that all that taught her Ms.Havisham is nonsense and became a woman who can love and appreciate the other`s love towards her.  It`s good that Estella and Pip remained together. 

There were many surrprises at the end of the book: Pip`s real benefactor was the convict he met many years ago ( in the very beginning of the story), and Estella was this convict`s daughter. I could not even imagine such a turning-point. 
So all`s well that ends well! 

P.S. My dear fellows and dear teacher, holidays are coming... I wish you a lot of success and a lot of strength, so that the next year would be even better than this one! 
Happy Holidays!!!
With love,

Hello, dear friends. How are you? I am sorry that I haven`t written for long time.
I continue reading "Great Expectations". Pip`s life changes little by little, and Pip changes as well. He is still in London. He gets a letter from Biddy. Joe  will be in London and wishes to see Pip. But Pip doesn`t want much to see Joe. He is ashamed of him. Joe feels that and he is not comfortable in Pip`s presence. Joe tells Pip that Ms.Havisham him to visit her home, because Estella came back from France. Pip meets Estella. She is not so rude with him like many years ago. Estella is glad that Pip changed and has another company now, not so common as Joe. Pip decides not to visit Joe at all. Pip believes that he is destined of Estella and wants to be with her.
Pip`s sister dies. After the funerals Pip stays at Joe, but the next day he leaves. Pip knows he won`t come back.
I am very dissapointed. I didn`t expect that Pip could be so unthankful, so dependent on peoples opinion. He is ashamed of Joe, the only one who supported him when he was a little boy and helped him. He doesn`t want to see him. He prefers more his new friends. He is blind with his new life.  I think he will be sorry some time about that...

Pip goes to London to Mr. Jaggers. The later tells Pip that he is to stay with Mr. Matthew Pocket’s son at the Barnard’s Inn. The son will take Pip to his father’s house so Pip can begin his education. . He tells also that Pip shouldn`t worry about his finances.  When Pip meets Mr. Pocket`s son he recognizes him from the first look. It is that red-headed boy from Ms` Havisham house whom he fought with. But in spite of that they become friends. Pip also gets acquainted with Pocket`s family and some of his friends. Some time later Mr.Jaggers takes Pip to the court with him. Pip notices that everyone is afraid of Jaggers. He is impressed.
I am glad that there are changes in Pip`s life, as I expected . But are they so good as it seems? We`ll see.
