So I'm Reading The Great Gatsby...




...and I think it's a pretty good book so far! ^_^ I'm on Chapter Seven, and supposedly the climax is in that chapter. I can't wait to find out what this "climax" is. Though I kinda spoiled the book for myself because I found out that Gatsby gets shot, falls into his pool, and dies. Oh well. *shrugs*

The only thing about reading The Great Gatsby is that I'm reading it with my Honours American Lit class, and my teacher is POUNDING EVERY SINGLE FREAKING THING OUT OF THE BOOK. Every little detail, EVERY tiny thing that happens, we have to make a note of it and we have to analyze EVERYTHING. It's like we have to know the entire book inside out and upside down!! >__< It's really taking the fun out of reading The Great Gatsby on my own because I'm not reading it for pleasure. I'm reading it to know every single thing and have to read and understand every little nit-pick detail. So in a way, I can't wait until we're all done reading Gatsby. Yet we're gonna have to write a paper on it when we're finished. =_= It's just dragging on and on now...

Errrgh.
