SUDS (sydney uni drama society) puts on some very good and very bad shows
UNSW always has some really great art shows on the fine arts campus in paddington
macquarie uni has a great museum (big stuffed bear, dinosaur footprints, etc) (this information is actually very dated now that i think about it but i’m sure it’s still wicked). they also used to do free camel rides @ their open day…….
omafiets is a great bike shop in alexandria
south dowling sandwiches in paddington has The Best Sandwiches. 16ishAUD for a truly scrumptious sandwich as big as ur head. i recommend the hugo……. it has caramelised carrots!!!!
indian home diner, also paddington, is soooo yummy & makes curry wraps that r to die for. also has a great student deal
lake parramatta is a beautiful beautiful spot 2 swim - nice fresh water, never toooo busy
& on the central coast, an hour’s beautiful train ride north:
excellent thrifting (woy woy specifically, & also fairhaven op shopping village in point clare)
the gosford hieroglyphs - there r proper conspiracies about this. they’re tucked away in a gully in the middle of the bush. super easy walk to get to them, but not easy to find
pelican feedings in woy woy & the entrance
the australian reptile park - a zoo but almost exclusively for native animals (the 1 exception i can think of is their komodo dragons). they helped develop anti-venoms for all of australia’s most venomous creatures, & u can watch them harvest snake & spider venom. also not just reptiles!!!!! many bugs & spiders & mammals & birds!!!
some great camping spots: little beach & frazer r my favs

obviously a classic - and i obviously think "WOW! no wonder this is a classic" every time i read a classic HOWEVER... truly so incredible in its themes and imagery - betrayal, revenge, nature, god, no god, death, love, passion! i reread it for the first time since i was a teenager and i just cannot believe how powerful and disturbing this book is, i can't even imagine how scandalous it would have been.
one thing i love most about wuthering heights is how married human life is with nature and the environment. animals, plants and the moor landscape are intertwined with the two houses and the families. i loved the constant mention of dogs and birds throughout. so incredible and so wild. can't believe she wrote this and died.

the in our time podcast discusses heaps of classics with a panel of experts, great way to hear what academics have been thinking about texts and the key themes they draw out. it's really chaotic because they have to get through a lot in a short time and the host (melvyn bragg) is always pressing them to give a straight answer.
the secret life of books podcast is also really good, they discuss the backstory and context of classics and how they contribute the books overall identity, but also its legacy.
i'm sure there's heaps more out there but these two are quite in depth when it comes to easily available literary analysis !
