Hamlet

Yes, I got all the awesome books people.
About Philosophy

When I see a youth thus engaged,—the study appears to me to be in character, and becoming a man of liberal education, and him who neglects philosophy I regard as an inferior man, who will never aspire to anything great or noble. But if I see him continuing the study in later life, and not leaving off, I should like to beat him - Callicle

- This Boy's Life
- Chinatown 
- The Boat
- Hamlet
- The poetry of William Blake
- A Passage to India

Lit's ridiculously easy - just verbose, sesquipedalian bullshit (how about that for hendiadys?), and you'll secure yourself a comfortable A+ with any examiner.

The Tempest - William Shakespeare
The Aunt's Story - Patrick White
The Hunter - Julia Leigh
Tennyson's poems...

Our school chose some odd books to do, still don't get why my teacher threw White in the pile. It killed everyone.

yeah its great, and you can pretty much pull anything from it because it is so abstract..
but i am so not prepared as i could be.
so, planning on winging it a bit..
i love reading it as opposed to writing about it.

Haha fair enough. I say just keep looking at the six poems which haven't been on an exam yet. I haven't studied anything else, so I'm praying VCAA will be nice to me!
