If I could bring to life one of any character from any book or reading that I have read this year, I would definitely bring Jay Gatsby (of The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald) with me to college.
Why would I do this, you ask? Simple, Gatsby could teach me the ways of success and fame and partying in the ways of the Roaring 20's, and show me the ways of not-smuggling-drugs through pharmacies in America. I have a feeling that knowing Gatsby as sort of my personnel mentor of mine would be beneficial to my future.
Gatsby was a partier, a romantic, a business man, and a genius drug smuggler (or..not), but unfortunately he was shot and killed in his pool for revenge, even though he didn't actually do anything to deserve.
That would be the best...
