So what would you do if you had one chance to go back?

I think I'd choose quantum mechanics, or maybe medicine.

:O

Film, or screenwriting, or creative writing, or fine art. Or.... there must be a degree on Doctor Who by now. :)

I don't get people who read books, see movies, look at art and then bang on about the meaning of them as if thats what the creator intended. Its like a mini religion, everyones got a bloody opinion but all the guy who made it wanted to do was paint a pretty picture.

Agreed.

If only we could harness the power of our common sense. We could take on Aaron socialism. :P

Me toos.

Like that woman who painted flowers. Everyone says they all represent lady bits. But she said they don't.

She painted 'em for f**k's sake!

I did English Lit (minor) at uni. It was fantastic.
Poncey but wonderful. I like (what most people think of as) poncey!

Oo er, what is it that they think of as poncey that you like?

The radical feminists (and there were lots) were the biggest nightmare on my course.
I once got ripped to bits and talked to like a piece of shit because I read and interpreted an Emily Dickenson poem as something other than women's suffering (it was about a beach or something!!).
The lecturer sat and let it happen as well.

And you take notice of people like that? :(

Well. Here's a poem by Shelley. Go and sit in a darkened dusty library for days on end reading poems and wearing scarves and immersing yourself in his difficult childhood, his tragic life and his penchant for Byron.

Okay!!

In the film Now, Voyager (1942), the main character is pretty much kept locked in the house by her domineering mother. She carves wooden boxes as a hobby. According to one of the lecturers on my girlfriend's course (don't go the the University of Westminster), this represents female masturbation.

No. It represents CARVING PATTERNS IN A FUCKING BOX.

(Pun not intended.)

Ooooh. I salivate.

I think we have to choose what to study at uni too young.

CHRIST!

You just gave Adam the horn.

I used to send off for uni prospectuses every year from the age of 14. I was a bit too keen.
