Month: September 2016

It was a cold night of winter, and it was very dark and rainy  it felt like a cinema but with rain in it but with no big screen, the cold felt like I was naked with no clothes on. The cars where moving fast like little children running around their noises were pleasant and unpleasant at times. I could see tons of people moving around like little dots controlled by a puppet master. I was observing how people were behaving, some people were happy and some normal , it felt like they were trying to transmit their emotions to me. All the shops on the line the odor of the foods that where impressed in my mind gave me a feeling of tastyness that made me fell like i was tasting them without eating them. It looked like it was a big event with all the shops and all the people around but that day was  christmas eve , and i really felt deep in my heart that it was becoming warmer. I didn’t need eyes or ears to see or watch from the smell of the air that was giving good vibes and good smells that made you fell like you were really in a good enviroment.

Pip’s outlook is brighter the next morning, though he fears his prospects will change before the week is over. Joe and Biddy only refer to his leaving when he mentions it. Pip feels liberated when Joe burns his indentures. He feels superior to everyone and pities the drudgery of their lives that only death will relieve them from. He thinks of his association with the convict in the past and avoids the shame of it by remembering it was a long time ago, and the convict was probably dead by now.He wonders if Miss Havisham is grooming him for Estella. He falls asleep out in the marshes. When he awakes, he finds Joe smoking his pipe besides him. Pip assures Joe he won’t forget him. He is rather annoyed by Joe’s lack of emotion. He tells Joe he always wanted to be a gentleman. He expresses regret that Joe hadn’t made much progress in his lessons. Joe admits he is dull and only good at his trade.Pip wants to help Joe once he is in control of his property. He is sorry, though, that Joe wouldn’t have the proper manners for his rise in station. He asks Biddy’s help in improving Joe’s manners. Biddy tells Pip that Joe is proud, and he would not be willing to be taken out of a station where he knows he is well suited. Pip accuses her of being envious. Biddy promises to fulfill her present duties and to keep a good opinion of Pip irregardless of how he feels about her. However, she tells him he shouldn’t be so unjust, particularly when he becomes a gentleman. Pip is upset, and his spirits remained dampened for the rest of the day.The next day, Pip is once again in good spirits and reconciles with Biddy. He goes to the tailor. Pip tells Mr. Trabb that he has come into property and needs new clothes befitting his new circumstances. Mr. Trabb’s attitude changes with this news, and he becomes deferential to Pip. He asks Pip to refer people to him. Pip goes to the other tradesmen to get what he needs, and their attitudes change as abruptly as the tailor’s had.Mr. Pumblechook has been looking for him after hearing the news. He is pleased that he is probably responsible for it happening by introducing Pip to Miss Havisham. Pip warns him they aren’t to mention that. They dine and drink. Pumblechook gets drunk.Pumblechook reminisces about them being closer than they were in Pip’s childhood, but Pip’s attitude towards him has thawed. Pumblechook is pleased that Pip wants his clothes sent to him, and he is glad Pip doesn’t want to show them off to other people—for it makes the privilege greater.
