yes the book is finally long enough to write 5 posts on... i'm on pg. 58
the book introduced jane/tiley, and after about 5 pages, i knew that she was extremely obnoxious and arrogant and grr.. T__T but i dont understand how at the beginning her mistress whipped her so much and wanted to kill her just because she 'sassed' her... anyways, the first example of jane's annoying-ness.
The driver said: "Shut up. You ain't nothing but trouble. I ain't had nothing but trouble out since you come in that field.""If I ain't nothing but trouble, you ain't nothing but Nothing." I said. I mean honestly... thats like the lame 5 year old answer... and she had NO idea where Ohio was... shouldnt she have asked someone along the way for directions first? before she headed out and almost got captured? or almost had to stay in that school? and how can she possibly survive on corn and apples?
I feel really sorry for Ned... Jane may be a good babysitter, but I don't think she's very good at the whole survival thing. you can only go so long without meat. when you're traveling a few miles a day, on foot, you're going to get tired, and vegetables won't sustain you. but it was really sweet how Jane took him with her, and she lets him rest whenever he needs to.
It's odd.... everyone uses the N word so... lightly. it's just another word to them. i wonder what made it so offensive now adays. maybe it's just because they were considered not even people back then, so it didn't really matter what they were called.
it stopped raining @ 5:09 PM
