Jansie is just as old as Sophie but she is very different from her.
Bring out the contrast between the two friends citing relevant
instances from the story,’ Going Places'.

Sophie and Jansie were different from each other. Sophie was a dreamer who enjoyed creating her own fantasy world using her imagination. She showed an urge to transcend her working-class status and attain sophistication by pursuing the ambition of a fashion designer or an actress. Jansie, on the other hand, was more practical and realistic than Sophie. She tried to pull Sophie back to reality, but all in vain. Jansie’s sensibility and maturity are evident in her attempt to remind her friend that they were earmarked for the biscuit factory, and expensive dreams were inappropriate to their financial status.

Sophie was a day dreamer who use to fasinate things a lot. She use to imaginate her own world, but at the other hand her friend Jansie was a practical and sensable girl. She knows that they were earmarked for working in biscuit making factory. She was aware of their future as to be middle class. she knows they didn't belongs to upper social order and doesn't have so much money to fulfill their aspirations and desire. Whereas, Sophie seems as to if living in her own imagination, she use to go higher and do something bring to earn money. when Jansie told her about her family and their livelihood she changed her profession again and again as to live in her own thoughts and imagination.The condition of her house was also not so good they had a small house that was steamy from the stove windows and the dirty washing piled up in the corner. Sophie was too felt suffocating  at her own house.
