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.

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.
