Where Have All The Good People Gone?

Have you ever read or seen Pride and Prejudice? I must admit that it was on the suggested reading list in Grade 12, so I decided to give it a try. But every time I started reading, I fell asleep. So I gave up and started reading something else. (It was called The Bean Tree...stupid book.)

But with all the remakes and the A&E production, I have seen Pride and Prejudice. (Maybe I should take up the book again.) This story has 3 guys in it.

Mr Wickham--the suave, good looking, flattering guy, that secretly is junk and has a bunch of gambling debts.

Mr Collins--a bit off, okay, well a whole lot off. But still deep down a good guy, that would give you a nice house and a stable income.

Mr Darcy--arrogant, and stubborn upon first meeting. Kind and loving and lets not forget rich when you get to know him.

Well, in my life so far. I have definately found the Wickhams. Guy that know just the right thing to say, but in the end turn out to be nothing but trouble.

There have also been a couple of Collins. Wonderful guys that would treat you like gold. But there isn't anything to ever talk about, or similar interests. Time with them goes by so slowly.

As of yet, there are no Darcys.

Sometimes you think "Darcy doesn't really exist. And if he does, he isn't interested in me. We are just meant to be good friends forever."

And so you decided that a Collins wouldn't be all that bad. But 10 minutes of them you think that you could never be with them for the rest of your life. You would be too bored.

We have all decided to make this summer the best summer yet. We are on the Cusp of Greatness. What exactly that entails, no one is sure.

Be Positive. Have Faith. Good Luck.
