This quote is referring to the bad things that happened to Pip on the day he first met Miss Havishams and Estella and how he lied to Joe and his sister about it. After realizing what he had done and realizing the effect his lying had on Joe, he learned he should stop lying and this helped to further develope who he is today.

An event in my life that had a chain effect was the first time I played on a soccer team. I came to really love playing and after I realized I liked playing soccer, I decided I would try other sports since soccer was so much fun. Because I first started playing soccer, I tried all different sports and enjoyed them a lot.

In my body paragraphs, I wrote about the three couples and how they react to each other. The main point I make in my paragraph is that opposites attract. Although they are attracted to each other they all have different interests and attitudes towards life. The quotes I used for concrete details were on pages 27, 41, and 52. They show how the couples are opposites. Each of these quotes help to further explain the topic of opposites attract. For the commentary parts of my parapraphs, I further explained my point of view on each couple and how they can be viewed as opposites but they still attract. I also tied in to that how Oscar Wilde uses literary elements to describe each couple.
