Night, Allie!
The four novels I had to read were... *struggles to remember* Jude the Obscure (which I loved), Wuthering Heights (which was fun to laugh at), Billy Budd (which sucked so badly--DON'T EVER READ IT), and Crime and Punishment. It was a little tough to finish everything on time, but MOST of them were good reads.
But if you have less than that, then feel lucky. XD

It was some weird Illustrated Classics thing, it was bad and boring, like the movie, play and book.
Luckily school has not started back yet for me, my Columbia classes are soon (I think) but Union still has until Sept 7th. Yay for some time with no papers!
Melville's obsession with Sailing/whaling.
Budd is a kid on a ship, the ship has troubles, pirates attack and there is mutiny but it is not exciting. There is a lot of talking but no character development. It is bad, much like Moby Dick is bad. And I love classic literature, give me Dickens, Shakespeare, Twain, Milton or even Hardy over the disaster that is Melville though.

Dude.
It's a 100 page book, right? I read fifty pages of Billy Budd before I realized I didn't absorb a single word.
So I didn't read the rest. ^_^ I cliffnoted it. And it STILL sucked.
I love Hardy, by the way. GIVE ME MISERY IN JUDE THE OBSCURE. It made me happy in a sick sort of way.
GOOD NIIIIIGHT, Atrias! Have a ton of fun!
Didn't read Tess. I'll remind myself not to...
But I love Jude to death. I just wanna give the poor guy a hug and say it'll be alright, but we all know it won't be, so you know. XD
Wow, and here I am... I can't listen to it anymore. XD
TURN ON RAUL! COME ON! TICK TICK BOOM! HAIR! DEFYING GRAVITY! THE INTERVIEW! Something.
Em you really dont want to be stopped do you??
hee. Raúl.
I was bored, and I'm not feeling very well so I don't want to do my work, so I pulled up the bookmark with my post from the film set and just re-read it. I do that sometimes. Now Halloween is playing on my shuffle. This was always the song that made me cry after that night.
Weird? I think so.
