Yeah, you were talking about novels by Dostoevsky and mentioned Anna Karenina.

Anna Karenina was written by Tolstoy, not Dostoevsky. Catch 22. Satanic Verses or anything else written by Rushdie. Contact by Sagan. Guns Germs and Steel by Diamond. Richard Branson's autobiography. Starship Troopers by Heinlen. Hunchback of Notre Dame by Hugo. Picture of Dorain Gray by Wilde.

(Clockwork Orange) I started reading this on new years eve when I ran out of shit on my phone to read and wanted something to do on the train to my party. He's the biggest dick.

Nah, that's what the interwebs are for. Being a dick. And cats.

Woopdee-fucking-do. Want a medal? I'm guessing you come from the country or western Sydney because only out there would this even need to be clarified.

Duckwork L'Orange. Dystopian cookbook.

It will, but in the same way that learning a language or going on exchange will; it'll add to your life and interpersonal skills. It won't actually complement your studies.

Re: The Thread that never Ends Bitch please. Yellow only. Purist experience.

Actually understand the courses and what the lecturers want from you. I worked my arse off for some courses and still did poorly just because I didn't get the course or understand what the lecturers wanted. Others I didn't do shit all semester because as soon as I flicked through the lecture...

Read Salman Rushdie. That shit cray.

What? Decline and Fall was a good book. I read it. It was fucking ace. Put an entire era of history into a new perspective.
