OVERTIME [again]

OH MY GOODNESS.

I'm going to have to go into overtime homework again!!! In English you know how we did the Tale of Two Cities book? Well now we have to do great expectations, which I bought yesterday, and it's soooo long. :( UGH.

Ok I know I sound like I'm making this out to be a drag, but I honestly am kind of excited about reading another novel...I love to read. I just don't like doing it with a paced effort. You know??? But yeah anyways, we had our break in between the books where we read, Miracle Worker the play version, but that was over much too soon. We watched a little bit of the middle and all of the ending of the movie version, and oh gah I cried. It was soooo emotional, when Anne tells Helen she loves her at the very end...It was amazing.

But yeah, yesterday my mom and I went to the bookstore and I bought a couple of books. I got Treasure Island , Great Expectations , Alice In Wonderland , The Historian , and Romeo And Juliet [play version]. I'm probably not going to have time to read much till summer comes...but I'm going to have to read To Kill A Mockingbird which I've already read like twice AND I have the movie. Soooo That shouldn't be too hard, just breezing right through that one. I can't wait to get started. I love reading. I told my boyfriend that we should try reading some books together and discussing them with each other you know? And I'm surprised he actually read a book for me! 'Cause at first he just kind of made it sound like I was crazy or something...but he read one, and it's GREAT! I'm so happy we finally had our first "Intellectual conversation" [over a book], but still...it's an accomplishment to me. I feel like he's learning something. Books are wonderful. I love them.

So I think I need to get started on Great Expectations now.

Sincerely,
