Let's say you can read either Don Quixote OR Moby Dick, but knowing that if you read either one you can never ever in your life read the other. Which one do you pick?

Check out the Goodreads page. There are some old comments that compare passages between multiple translations, with some really good examples and there is some discussion over all that. Or at least there was, years ago. Look for a guy named Nate D.

There's something I like about your writing in your college stories, but the stories themselves are boring and quickly fall flat on their noses. Did all that actually happen? Because of it did, therein lies your problem. Don't limit yourself to what "really" happened. Sure, if you're a good storyteller, you could recount taking a shit and make it a worthwhile read. You're not quite there yet, so make something up. If it is made up, then make up more.
This is all meant as encouragement so, more anecdotes, please.

Maybe the big guy up there is just about ready to do a world purge.
