Reading

          I've just recently got a kindle and oh boy, I forgot how much I loved reading. I mean, I LOVED reading. I spent 12 hours a day reading in high school, and I don't think that's an exaggeration, at all. My parents had to confiscate my library card because I read too much. Obviously I just had another one made but still, it was a LOT. My eyesight got so much worse because of the constant reading, I have bad posture from sneak-reading in class all the time, I never went out to eat with my friends because I wanted to stay in class and read. Yeah, it was that bad. Now as soon as I graduated high school, I pretty much stopped reading books. I still read news and reddit and stuff but no books literally since high school. It's BAD. I bought books as if I still read them, and they just sit in my shelf looking all pretty.

          So I got the kindle, right as I had 4 hours a day to read (see previous post) and oh boy, the time just flew on by. Like I literally didn't notice that 2 hours were gone, just like the old days. I haven't read in effectively 4 years, and now I'm reading an average book and I'm already blown away. This kindle, (though expensive) has to be the best purchase I've ever made. It's amazing, I love it, and I'm sad I didn't get it sooner. Maybe with dad's money instead of mine (jk).

          If anybody wants to get back into reading, kindle is the way to go. It looks like actual paper, not a screen, at all. And it lights up, unlike a real book, which means reading at night! If you're a person who jumps around books (you monster), then you don't have to carry all those books with you wherever you go. Plus, you get free books to read, so if you think about it, it kind of returns the cost of it.

          Anyway, what I'm trying to say is, I'm a big big fan, and I look forward to catching up on everything I've missed.
