Born in the Wrong Century

Born in the Wrong Century

Submitted by: alicia_celeste_loughrey_1

I was born in the wrong century I'm oft known to say<br /> I look back wistfully at the lovely styles and traditions of back in the day<br /> <br /> Jane Eyre and Wuthering Heights are among my top favorite books of all<br /> I love how back in the day a boy or a man would come to call<br /> <br /> The manners and the customs were so classically reserved<br /> But that made it all the more enticing and so much more deserved<br /> <br /> I'm not a fan of the way woman were lower class and of the injustice<br /> But I admire the tenacity of Elizabeth Bennet in Pride and Prejudice<br /> <br /> For a woman who feels most comfortable wearing slacks<br /> I'm not sure if I would be able to wear the petticoat hoop skirts and all that<br /> <br /> The programs that I most enjoy and the genre of books that I read<br /> Clearly show the romantic I am indeed~   Submitted By: Alicia "Celeste" Loughrey
