Única

Sim, de certo modo, sou única. Não conheço mais ninguém que olhe para as relações dos adolescentes de hoje em dia, como eu olho. Talvez isso me prejudique, talvez não. Sei sim que, agora, nesta idade, os rapazes não têm maturidade para compreenderem e partilharem da minha maneira ingénua e singela de ver o mundo. Por isso terei de arcar com as consequências.

I had a Summer blast :) (even though it's not summer yet)

Eu sei que ainda só estamos em Abril.Mas o dia de hoje pareceu mesmo verão, e eu estava verdadeiramente feliz :)

Jane Austen's World (L)

Sinto quase que não pertenço aqui... Pertenço ao mundo que Jane Austen descreve nos seus livros tão maravilhosos, que se fazem ver nas adaptações de cinema que me fazem sonhar.

Sinto-me quase como uma menina pequena, que acabada de ver um filme que adorou, anseia chegar a casa, e usar tudo o que estiver ao seu alcance para ficar igualzinha à personagem do filme. Hoje senti-me mesmo assim. Mas, como é óbvio, aquilo que precisava para imitar perfeitamente 'Orgulho e Preconceito', 'Persuasão', ou até 'Emma', não me está, nem nunca mais estará ao meu alcance e dispor.

Pride & Prejudice - Jane Austen

Vanity and pride are different things, though the words are often used synonymously.... Pride relates more to our opinion of ourselves, vanity to what we would have others think of us.

I'm kind of what you call: a LOSER

Persuasion - Jane Austen - Captain Wentworth's Letter to Anne Elliot

"I can listen no longer in silence. I must speak to you by such means as are within my reach. You pierce my soul. I am half agony, half hope. Tell me not that I am too late, that such precious feelings are gone for ever. I offer myself to you again with a heart even more your own than when you almost broke it, eight years and a half ago. Dare not say that man forgets sooner than woman, that his love has an earlier death. I have loved none but you. Unjust I may have been, weak and resentful I have been, but never inconstant. You alone have brought me to Bath. For you alone, I think and plan. Have you not seen this? Can you fail to have understood my wishes? I had not waited even these ten days, could I have read your feelings, as I think you must have penetrated mine. I can hardly write. I am every instant hearing something which overpowers me. You sink your voice, but I can distinguish the tones of that voice when they would be lost on others. Too good, too excellent creature! You do us justice, indeed. You do believe that there is true attachment and constancy among men. Believe it to be most fervent, most undeviating, in
