    Pip's Life

  • Pip meets the convict

    As Pip is in the graveyard looking at the graves of his late parents, he meets a convict that threatens to kill him unless he brings him a file, food, and promises to not tell anyone of his appearance. Pip, scared, rushes home to find the items to bring to his convict.
  • Uncle Pumblechook takes Pip to Miss Havishams

    Uncle Pumblechook, Mrs. Joe’s beloved uncle, takes Pip to the house of one of the richest ladies in town, Miss Havisham. His first visit and other visits forever changed how he viewed himself and his social class.
  • Pip meets Estella

    As soon as Pip meets Estella, he knows that she is his “true love.” Yet despite all his attempts to woo her and make him love her, she never loved him because of his class.
  • Pip found out he has a secret benefactor from Mr. Jaggers

    While Pip is in the pub eating with Joe, a mysterious man known as Mr. Jaggers approaches Pip and tells him that a secret benefactor is giving him money. Suddenly overnight, Pip is on his way to London to become a gentleman.
  • Pip moves to London

    Pip moves to London to become a gentle, and to hopefully woo Estella now that he is of a higher class.
  • Pip discovers his benefactor

    While Pip is asleep in his house while Herbert is away, the convict comes into his house and reveals that he is his secret benefactor. Pip is disappointed that his benefactor is not Miss Havisham, because he wanted Miss Havisham to hook him up with Estella. He now wants to refuse Magwitch’s money because he is a convict and it looks bad for his image.
  • Pip saves Miss Havisham from the fire

    After Pip finished saying good-bye to Miss Havisham for the last time, Pip walks around the Satis House garden. There he looks up into the room of Miss Havisham and sees her jumping into the fireplace. He runs to her room to save her, but she remains only a ghost of her original self. He burns both his hands while saving her, but doesn’t realize it since all of his energy is on saving her.
  • Pip and Estella reunite in the Satis House garden

    After years of not seeing each other and living their own lives, Pip and Estella meet up again in the garden of Satis House, where they said good-bye many years before. Estella talks about her abusive marriage to Drummle, and how he died a couple years before then. Satis House is the only thing left in her possession after Miss Havisham died, and he is now selling it. They agree that they were meant for each other from the beginning, and walk off hand-in-hand into the distance.
  • I was born

    At around 12:30 in the morning, I was brought into this world to Amy and Jeff Howe in Long Beach, California.

    Allie's Life

  • My sister was born

    My sister was born when I was 3 ½ years old. I was so excited to become a big sister for the first time. She taught me responsibility and made me become a better role model so that I could be a good influence to her.
  • First Day of Kindergarten

    My first day of kindergarten was a fun experience, and it started the years of education I have been obtaining so that I can have a successful and bright future.
  • My brother was born

    My brother was born when I was 6 years old. I was older this time around, so I was able to help out a little bit more, and I was able to remember more of his younger years than when my sister was born.
  • Accepted into Oxford

    When I was in 6th grade, I never even wanted to go to Oxford. I was planning on going to Walker, my home school, until my mom told me to try out to see if I could make it in. When I made it in, I felt so special for being picked that I decided to try it out and go. If not, I could always go back to Walker. I have met so many great friends here and have been so successful that I’m glad I never went to Oxford.
  • Adopted my dog Lily

    After my family’s first dog, a golden retriever named Buster, died, we (or more specifically my mom) decided right away that we were going to get another dog. Two days later, we adopted a yellow lab named Lily.
  • Learning to Drive

    This summer, I am going to be taking drivers education classes so that I can hopefully get my license next winter.
