Skits

Okay, the first scene that i might like to do next week, is was in the very beginning of the book, when the convict and Pip first meet. It would show good initial characterization of both, and would represent the beginning. The next scene I would like to act out would have to be when Miss H. catches on fire, and Pip has to put her out with his coat, merely because it would be entertaining! The only other part of the book i would like to see acted out, is when Pip fights the "pale young gentleman. It would be a good action scene!

Another question

Okay, so i have been trying to figure out what is going to happen with Pip and Estella. "The nature of my relations with her (Estella), which placed me on terms of familiarity without placing me on terms of favor, conduced to my distraction." (325) I know that estella really doesnt want to be with Pip, but is forced by Miss. H., but Pip loves her (*cough* idiot! *cough*) Anyways, i just can't tell how it is going to play out, will Estella break Pip's heart? Or will she do the right thing, and let him down gently? These are all unanswerable questions, I know, but i can't help but ask them.

Que? (what?)

"There's power here," said Mr. Jaggers, coolly tracing out the sinews with his forefinger. "Very few men have the power of wrist that this woman has. It's remarkable what mere force of grip there is in these hands. I have had occasion to notice many hands; but I never saw stronger in that respect, man's of woman's than these." (214) Alright guys and gals. I really need your help on this one. I mean, this is totally out of the blue, but must have SOME significance in the coming future! I also don't understand whether her wrists are just strong, or if she has cut them, or if it was a birth defect, or what! Any help would be appreciated! Thanks guys!

Great Expectations Photo Post

This photo of a lonely boy, reminds me of how Pip must have felt, when he discovered that estella was gone from Miss. Havisham's house. He felt more alone, plain, and unwanted than ever! Also, this symbolizes how Pip is alone in his struggle to be a gentleman, and the tolls that it may take on his life and character.
