another Anne note

April 24th,

I'm reading Anne of the island now, another Anne series book.

I do love Philippa.

She is my second favorite character now, the first one is Anne, of course.

At first I thought Philippa was just one of those shallow, frivious frivolous teenager girls, giggling and talking endlessly with each other.

But this impression all changes a few minuties minutes later, when I read about the part that Philippa fell in love with Jonas Blake.

Suddnely I found that this girl is not shallow but pure, and with a simple yet beautiful nature.

Her feelings about Jonas shows that she didn't know or understand love before, and the sudden realization of the feeling of love simply caught her.

Her reaction is so cute, like a little innocent deer.

I love her for her pure heart, and her way of speaking out her feelings so candidly.

I will keep reading tonight. I really want to know what happens to those lovely charaters characters later in the book.

Gilbert is clearly a good choice for Anne, but a good novel can't just represent our heronie's heroine's life journey this easy and plain.

Back to the real world.

I'd like to comment a few words about today, April 25th.

Spring indeed comes today, in Boston, from the JFK beach to our small apartment on Gardner Street.

Trees with unknown names blossom like a parade on our way to the beach, though the road is crowded----people flooded into the shopping center today, I enjoyed the view of the flowers when we were caught in the middle of the traffic.

I like spring, it makes me feel like everything is cheerful and splendid, with unlimited hope in everybody's life.
