  • That's what I think. I always forget how beautiful everything turns out, the reunions..etc. It always gave me hope that I might turn out alright...

    I really should, although it will probably have to wait until I'm done being obsessed with Victor Hugo. Whenever that it. LOL.

    Anne was sort of a brat. Maybe that's why I didn't like her that much.
    um... no im only in yr 7. we done chemistry and a bit of the body science stuff. its all VKMWDVKNOWEFJBEWFJBEWL SACNLNI! i dont get stuff mainly maths though im quite bright im working at a 6c but in french a 4b.
    I cried when Aslan died the first time. I still tear up after The Last Battle.
    I'm a sucker for tragic heroics, so LoTR nearly always gets me. I would love to be able to write something tragic enough to make people cry. There's a difference between something that's depressing, and something that's beautifully tragic. It's hard to explain what I mean...

    haven't read Romeo and Juliet yet, either. I actually haven't done much Shakespear. I did Twelfth Night and the Merchant of Venice for school, and read The Comedy of Errors just for fun.

    I never liked Gilbert much. His name weirded me out. :D
    at least someone gets what i mean!!! everyone else is like ooh its not that bad but in maths i dont get how to find the nth term and the term-to-term rule its just GOBDLEGOOP!!!!
    I don't cry a lot, only when it's really sad. In this case, I'd been reading it all day, so I'd already had a million characters die on me in one sitting, but the end just killed me. The whole "Bye, Cosette, you can't call me Dad anymore" bit really got me. I must have been weeping through the last 50 pages, at least. I need to read that again, but it's over a thousand pages long.
    Of course, I always cry when I watch Return of the King alone.
    I don't know that I've cried over a song, but some of the ones in the Les Mis soundtrack come close.

    I haven't done Hamlet yet. It's much more fun with a class. I read Twelfth Night with my Lit class three years ago. I read the part of Sir Andrew every week. It was awesomeness.

    Yeah, I think she grows up and marries Gilbert and stuff. But who wants to read about Anne as an old woman? Seriously.
    I liked his stubborness. You never knew where he'd show up. the only characters I really hated were the Thenardiers. What stinks is, he killed off all the characters I loved. Gavroche's death was the worst, I think, though the only one I cried over was Valjean.

    I'm reading Julius Ceaser out loud to myself. It's not as fun, but I did fall over and die when he got stabbed.
    I always thought Anne was far to romantic, and rather dumb. But that's just me. I never read the sequels, but I'm not a huge fan of 'girl classics'.
    Who was your favorite character? I loved Enjolras, Javert and Eponine. And Jean Valjean. And Gavroche. Heck, I love them all. Of course, I love anything I've read by Victor Hugo. He writes with such compassion that I wish I had.

    I haven't read the Space Trilogy yet. It's on the list of things to read, but It takes me a while to get around to them.
    Oooh, and Ender's Game is a great book, too. It's also science fiction, although not by a Christian author. There was a lot of cursing, but it was still very well written.
    I'm reading Julius Ceaser for school right now. It's pretty good.
    I read The Secret Garden ages ago, and remember liking it. And I remember that Shirley Temple was in a movie that ruined it. I never liked Anne of green gables. It took me five tries to read it as a kid...
    The Chosen sounds familiar. Who wrote it?
    My favorite book...wow, that's tough. I love Les Miserables absolutely to death, though. It took me about a month to work through and it made me cry. It's truly amazing.

    I also love The Brothers Karamazov, 1984, all the narnia books (of course), The Count of Monte Cristo....
    I like a lot of books. What's your favorite?
    I did chem in ninth grade. (I'm in 11th now) It was the worst.
    I like lit, normally, but I've had a heck of a time with Homer. Ew. I want my Dostoevsky and I want it NOW! hehe.
    I'm not to big into ancient greek stuff. Although Oedipus was good.
    Chemistry was awful. I failed.

    Yes, I am homeschooled, although I'm going to take a composistion class at a college, starting next week.
    I used to go to this great homeschooling organization called "New Hope Tutorials", but that was three years ago, and I moved. But they had really great lit classes.
