Great Expectations: The First Stage

The quote refers to Pip how his actions forever got him into his situation. Just having contact with Miss Havisham altered his life forever, for she is the one who introduced Pip to Estella. She herself is the sole purpose of why he wants to change. He wants to be with her but she was trained to ruin him. He thinks if he changes, she will love him. All he wants to be is the upper class, which he is the exact opposite. And the only way he would reach that goal is to leave his past life behind him.

Today, I am who I am only because of one important day. My "chain" day started the first day of 3rd grade. Previous years before that, I went to a private school where everyone knew everyone, and all together, the school had about 50 kids. But when I came to a public school with over 500 kids, I felt overwhelmed. Everything was a change. A cafeteria, big assembly's and overfilled classrooms. That day and that year forever changed me to get used to real life. Although I was very young, I learned so much about what it was like to have changes in my Life.
