Pride and Prejudice


i found an old edition of this book in my room and thought it would be a nice distraction to reread it.
As the temperature has peeked (i do not mean peaked) above zero i took a walk and sat upon the war memorial enjoying the sun. I am concentrating on finding which character i feel the most similar too. So far i think either Mr. Bingley or Mr. Darcy, although their personalities are polar opposites.

Elizabeth "and your defect is a propensity to hate everybody."
Darcy: "and yours," he replied, with a smile, "is willfully to misunderstand them."
I'm not sure which side of this exchange I'd be on. I was planning on saying I empathize more with Darcy, but I think it's a close call. I have the faults of all the characters and the benefits of none. I must be Caroline Bingley. HA. WOW actually... I fawn over the guy who would rather be left alone, I insult people to make myself look better, I am super proud. yup, definitely Caroline. No, I hope I not so cruel as all that.

(P.S. the part where Harry and Hermoine dance in the movie is probably my favourite.)
