			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Pages Read: 10</p>
<p>    Jane gets a letter by Mrs. Bingley that the whole party including Mr. Bingley will be leaving Herdforshire for the winter. Mrs. Bingley says they have no intention of coming back soon. While they are down there she says they will be seeing alot of Mrs. Darcy, the sister of Mr.Darcy. Mrs. Bingley hopes to see her brother and Mrs. Darcy together soon. Mrs. Bingley does not see how they will not be together. They will have many intimate dinners and talks. As jane reads this to elizabeth, elizabeth can not believ what she is hearing. Jane is tore up and thinnking that what the letter says is true. Elizabeth calms jane down and tells her that Mr. Bingley does like Jane.<br />
    She said it is very hard for someone to see you two together and not know that you like each other. Jane knows of her not liking Mrs. Bingley and says that is the only reason she is telling jane this. The sisters come to an agreement that the only reason Mrs. Bingley is doing this is because she wants one intermarriage in hopes os getting Mr. Darcy and them having another. Meanwhile the next morning Mr. Collins sneaks out and goes to Charolette Lucases house. He asks her to marry him and she says yes. They talk to her parents about a date and they all agree it should be soon. Charolette then comes over and tells Elizabeth. Elizabeth is in shock and cannot believe she would say yes. Charolette is twenty seven though and she would die an old maid. This is her only chance at having a comfortable home and being happy.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Pages Read:10<br />
Pride and Prejudice<br />
By: Jane Austin</p>
<p>Right now Elizabeth is faced with a terrible decision. Her cousin Mr. Collins has just asked for her hand. He tells of his feelings and will not stop to let Elizabeth answer. Finally she has time to answer and strogly declines him. When she refuses he takes it as a compliment and says that most women refuse the first several times befoe excepting. Elizaveth tells him that she strongly refuses and that she is not like other girls and does not do that.<br />
When her mother hears of her rejecting his offer , she got really hotheaded and ran to Mr. Bennet. After her mother tells Mr Bennet he asks for Elizabeth to come. in. When she comes in, her father asks if Mr. Collins has asked for her hand. When Elizabeth says yes, he turns to the mother and she says,&#8221; I will never speak to her again if she does not accept.&#8221; So Mr. Bennet says that this would be very lucky for Elizabeth. Mr. Bennet comes to decide and says, &#8220;From this day you mst be a stranger to one of your parents. Your mother will never see you again if you do not marry Mr. Collins, and I will never see you again if you do.&#8221; This is my favorite line from the book.<br />
After Elzabeth hears of this she is so content. Her mother on the other hand is mad. Mrs. Bennet then decides to turn to her sisters .<br />
Jane then gets a leter from the Bingleys. The letter said that they were leaving town and did not know when they would be back. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Pages read: 7<br />
By: Jane Austin</p>
<p>Elizabeth and her family are at a ball at Netherfeild. Jane and Mr. Bingley the host of the party and engrossed in conversation. Elizabeths mom is talking loudly about how she wants her daughters to marry rich men.She gets embarassed by the rudness of her mother and wonders what everyone must think of her. Her sister mary is sining and doing very poorly. She looks to her dad and after she sings her second song, her dad tells her to let some other girl have a turn. At dinner her mother starts again about how two of daughters should be married off soon. Elizabeth is worried what Mr. Darcy might say and glances over at his direction several times. She now believes thanks to her mother they will not get respectable marriages.<br />
After they leave the ball they all talk about the time they had. The next morning Mr. Collins their cousin asks Elizabeths other if he can talk to her alone. Elizabeth knows what he is going to ask and she begs her mother not to leave her alone with him. When they get alone he tells her his reasons ffor wanting to get married. One reason is he believes the home would be better with some company. Second his patroness, Lady Catherine de Bourgh wishes he get married and he doesnt want to upset her. So he wishes to marry Elizabeth. Her mother believes it to be a good idea because he is to inherit the house when the father dies and her mother will do anything to keep the house with them. Elizabeth refuses to marry him.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I read part of Act 2 of julius Caesar.<br />
In Act 2 Cassius is finally getting Brutus on his side. it starts out by brutus thinking about what he should do. He knows how caesar is and how he does not think with his heart he just thinks with his head. Brutus feels that if Caesar comes into rule that he will get a big head and start changing everything around.<br />
Brutus gets a letter from Cassius and it tells him that they ill to do it that day but it all  is in like bits and pieces because people an read other peoples mail and they did not wanting it to get out. So a few minute, later he gets a knock at the door and it is Cassius and other conspirators come in. They take a oath of some kind and discuss how they will do it. Brutus tells his thoughts and says if anyone is scared and going to chicken out then they should not do it and to hide their evil thoughts behind grins and laughter. To himself he is scared that the plan will fail and he does not know how he will be able to hide his plan for very long.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I have read six pages. </p>
<p>What I have read is Mr, Wicham and Elizabeth Bennet are discussing Mr. Darcy and his estate. They get into talking about his manner and how proud he is. They believe he is very disagreeable and believe he is very rude. Miss. Bennet talks about how she believes that seeing him once is one to many. She tells Mr. Wicham about staying with her sister when she is sick at Mr. Bingleys house. Mr. Darcy was there and how very disagreeable he was. He constantly made rude remarks at her and how she presents herself.<br />
Then they go on to talk about how his dad and the late Mr.Darcy were real close business partners. When his father had died,the late Mr. Darcy promised to take care of him but when he died Mr. Darcy would give anything. Then it goes on to say how lady Catherine de bourgh and Mr. Darcy are related. They discuss how the two estates will be united and that Mr. Darcy will marry his cousin. Elizabeth believes this to be funny because Miss. Bingley is obssed with Mr. Darcy and will be very furious that he is already promised to another woman. </p>
