I wonder why that people think reading is so weird. Or that being a girl, as I am, I shouldn't game as much as I do, nor should I play the games that I do. Or the fact that I spend less than 3 minutes on my hair every morning and only a bit of time on make-up. that when people say mean things I'm supposed to react and hate that person. It is just so confusing, I will never get people. NEVER.
I'm actually surprised by how many people will say they admire sports people or aspire to be just like an actress whos body is only about 30% her own, and little awkward me, sitting in that corner of there says people like "christopher paolini, he wrote the first draft of eragon when he was 15" or "John Green. DFTBA!" and other such people. I just don't understand why you would luck up to people who get paid to be someone else or get paid to play a sport, which is supposed to be recreational.
Nor do I understand why people take such an aversion to reading books! One period in the morning for reading, no work and all anyone can do is complain? I mean. Really?
I also dislike that at such a time when someone makes any sort of reference to reading there is at the very least one snide comment directed at me, me as myself who has never spoken to said person before because quite frankly, they're usually horrible. I just don't see how "reading" "books" "writing" becomes a direct word that means "that nerd over there" I find it unfair, because... I just do.

this is exactly how i feel. reading for pleasure is such a rarity now, but it's good to know that others still just read a hobby.
ReplyDeletei wish i could answer about why there much be such differences between avid readers and those who abhor books, but i'm still trying to figure it out.
