Pipıs
house was nothing more than the basic necessities. In the kitchen, was a basic
setting; table and chairs. There was a door in the kitchen somewhere. Basically
I have no idea where it even talks about what his house looks like and I am
bull shitting my way through this. I looked for the answer for long enough and
now I am quite sick of it. I just got back from cheerleading practice and I am
exhausted and I want to go to bed. But instead of failing your class by not
doing my homework, I felt the need to actually do the assignment and pass
English this year. Therefore, I do not understand this book at all so far, BUT
you do help me out with it ion class which is a good thing for me. It also
means that you are doing a fabulous job teaching. Oh, and by the way. This mad
sketchy guy that like stalks my boy Pip is crazy disgusting! His little
side-kick there that is psychotic and we never know his name according to nasty
man in the graveyard is pretty sketch-ball-ish, too if I do say so myself. What
kind of guy creeps around in graveyards looking to scare little boys at 6, 7,
or even 8 years of age? Thatıs so coolNOT! If I was that young Pip at 6, 7, or
8 years old, I would have been like ³Punk, shut your mouth, and get your grubby
paws off me shoulders!² and walked away. Thatıs how bad ass PHS has made me
over the past two years! So, chapter 2 in this awesome ³Great Expectations²
novel is confusing. If you would not mind explaining it to me or even the class
tomorrow, that would be grand. Oh, look at that...my 300 words are up! (305
words!)
After Pip steals all the food he can bring, he heads to the marsh.
As he walks through the marsh-mist he feels guilty about having to steal from
his sister. As he was walking he saw someone sitting and thought it was the man
he was supposed to bring a file and wittles too. He went up to the man and
softly touched him on the shoulder. The man instantly jumped up, and it was not
the same man, but another man. Pip realized that it was the young man who was
with the other man the day before. The young man tried to punch Pip but missed
and almost fell. He then ran away. After that, Pip spotted the man who he was
supposed to be meeting and he was sitting there waiting. Pip handed him the
file and he laid it on the grass. Then he emptied his pockets and gave him the
food. The man for a second, thought that Pip had brought someone with him but
he said that he didn't and the man believed him. Pip watched him eat the food
and asked if the man was going to save any for the young man. It seemed like
the man didn't know that the young man was there and asked where he was. The
man walked off looking for him and Pip said that he must go but the man didn't
hear him so he just slipped away.
Uncle Pumblechook (Joe's uncle, but Mrs. Joe appropriated him), was ³a well-to-do corn-chandler² in the nearest town and drove his own chaise-cart. Pip was not aloud to call him Uncle Pumblechook, so he was called him Mr. Pumblechook. Mr. Pumplechook was ³a large hard-breathing middle-aged slow man, with a mouth like a fish, dull staring eyes, and sandy hair standing upright on his head, so that he looked as if he had just been all but choked.² Pumblechook brought Mrs. Joe a bottle of sherry wine and a bottle of port wine. Every Christmas Day, the exact words come out of his mouth. Mr. Pumblechook told Pip to respect the people who brought him up by hand. He basically was the uncle of Mr. Joe and Mrs. Joe (by marriage.) Pip was not aloud to call him uncle, so he was forced to call him Mr. Pumblechook. He always brought wine to every Christmas Day, and everyone expected it. He carried the wine like dumb-bells in his hands. He often voiced his opinion and scolded Pip for not respecting, or being grateful, of Mr. and Mrs. Joe because they brought him up by hand. He likes to hear the sound of his own voice, is what I am getting from him. He is like the relative that nobody invites to anything because all he does is talk, talk, talk. Besides the fact of never shutting up, he was actually a kind man in the way he spoke. He was not rude or disrespectful. Like I said, he did sternly talk to Pip about his respect for his sister and his brother-in-law. He always talked to the adults in a way that he wanted to be talked to. He followed the golden rule, in modern terms. Basically, he was a nice person, not a very good-looking man, but is definitely into the respect within the different generations. (319)
