For me, insanity is super sanity. The normal is psychotic.

How to do the About Me Meme

1) BOLD all the statements that are true about you.
2) Italicize all the statements you wish were true about you.
3) Underline all the statements you wish were not true about you.
4) (Optional) Include an explanation on why it is or isn't true about you.
5) Post this and then tag 10 other people to do it too!

I'm an English Literature major. I did both my BA and MA in Literature. But I've mostly gone against the grain as some of the so-called great books on this list I only read because I had to in school, while others I read for me. I'm surprised that Kafka"s Metamorphosis isn't on here though. As aren't any of Shakespeare's works, but they were plays. Hamlet, A Midsummer Night's Dream, Twelfth Night,  Henry IV, Macbeth, The Merchant of Venice and Richard III are just a few of the one's I really enjoyed.
