Hello again wed world. I don't believe anyone reads this anymore but I wanted to post something as I sit here and think about other things while I am supposed to be writing an essay exam which is due in just under 4 hours (I have my intro already so the rest is smooth going). Anywho a couple thoughts:
1) It appears as if disjointed random thoughts are the in thing. As I read through others blogs I read things like:
"It's snowing. Snow I like. Snow makes me happy". This is a quote made up by me because I do not wish to actually make fun of particular people by using a real quote.
Maybe that's what a blog is all about so maybe I'll try it.
2) I like reading. Reading is good for my brain. It makes me happy.
Hehe I'm not so good at this. Anyway I am almost done exams and even before I am done I am getting overly excited about the fact that I get to start reading again! I am planning out what book I will start with but I am never really that planful in my reading material...meaning I don't create book lists which I want to read. I just pick up the first book that I see and start areadin'. I used to hate reading because I couldn't get over the idea of it just being words on a page. My head wouldn't get into it. Now I have the oposite problem. I get so into my reading that I forget about the real world. I can read a book and actually become the main character. It is scary actually. If I read I will completely faze out of life. Is that a good thing or a bad thing? I can avoid all problems in my life by reading a book...hummm...doesn't sound too bad but I think there is a risk to living in a fantasy world...it's too easy to run away from problems. Well it's been 4 months since I actually had the chance to read so we'll see if I have changed. Who knows, maybe it will just be words on a page.
Oh boy time is apassin' and I need to get writing!

Hey Lynn, There's nothing wrong with enjoying some fantasy once in awhile!! ;)
'Course .. it's me talking ... but really, we live real life every day, so why on earth should we have to read about it too??
loveya
Reading is not escaping, it's gaining perspective by stepping away for a little while.... that's how I justify it. I can get so into a book that it takes me a few minutes after I stop reading or get interrupted to reorient myself.... I love books.
as long as you're not losing sleep in order to finish the book. for me, that's the mark of a good book (or a good hook, anyway...) and i'm addicted until it's done, at any cost, including sleep. it can be dangerous! but i love it! :)
