Hello!
Sorry for not updating! I'm bad about that, as you can tell. :-)
On http://www.handbagplanet.com, you can register to win a purse! There are some really cute ones! I picked the blue hobo bag. :-) And posting that, I earn 25 more entries! Yay! LOL
I've been listening to "Jane Eyre" on my iPod. I love it, and I'm only on Chapter 5! Jane reminds me of myself, in some ways. I'm generally the girl in the background, reading a book, or not saying much, though not for all the same reasons as Jane. (Unless you get me around certain people!) I like Bessie, even if she is harsh sometimes. As for the Reed children? They're the definition of spoiled brats! And Mrs. Reed was so mean!
(By the way, if you have iTunes, you can go to the iTunes store, search for "Lit2Go", and it will bring up several audio books that you can download for free. They're good quality, and that fact that they're free is really nice; some audiobooks on iTunes cost $20!)
I'm reading "Wives and Daughters" as well. I really like the movie, and the book is just as good! I'm finding that I like classic books a lot. There's so much more substance in them, and the use of words is amazing. I wish people still talked and wrote like that! You get so much more out of the story, and you can paint a clear picture in your mind of the scenes, the people, etc.
Tonight is pizza and a movie night. We're watching "Nicholas Nickleby". It sounds interesting. Hopefully it will turn out to be very good!
Tomorrow we're going grocery shopping. I need to buy some blue jeans, because I only have one pair now. We're also going to the library. They have "Funnyface" in now, which I had reserved, so I'll get that. I'm hoping that the book I wanted to get last week will be in too.
I need to go; Mary is dancing around the house, waiting for me to be done!
Hugs,
Rebecca

Hey!! I love meeting other Christians in teh blogging circle, so hi!!! I've was reading your profile and some of your posts and it seems that we have a lot in common! I loved Jane Eyre! I read it in one sitting. I also love all the classics (Jane Austen... More of Jane Austen!) I also am studying French. I've been studying for about six months. I love it more each day. I'm also almost fluent in Spanish, so if you ever do start learning that language, I would love to help by answering any questions you might have! So anyway, I hope to hear from you soon! Blessings and peace from our Lord Jesus Christ!

Oooo - fun books! I love Jane Eyre. We read that in our book club a few months ago. And I've seen Wives and Daughters but haven't read the book. I think I'll get it from the library!
Blessings,
Amanda
