I never cared for all those ologies and isms Nan and Di are so crazy about . And there 's five of us going to college already . Surely that 's enough . There 's bound to be one dunce in every family . I 'm quite willing to be a dunce if I can be a pretty , popular , delightful one . I ca n't be clever . I have no talent at all , and you ca n't imagine how comfortable it is . Nobody expects me to do anything so I 'm never pestered to do it . And I ca n't be a housewifely , cookly creature , either . I hate sewing and dusting , and when Susan could n't teach me to make biscuits nobody could . Father says I toil not neither do I spin . Therefore , I must be a lily of the field , '' concluded Rilla , with another laugh . `` You are too young to give up your studies altogether , Rilla . '' `` Oh , mother will put me through a course of reading next winter . It will polish up her B.A. degree . Luckily I like reading .
Do n't look XXXXX me so sorrowfully and so disapprovingly , dearest .
