That is true. Which is why I have to wonder why people don't like them. . . *stares at TV* Oh, that's why.

Dae - I should too. The only thing that would stop me is I don't bother reading textbooks. >.<

Normally, I wouldn't really do it either but for most of my classes, it's practically required D:
I should take a picture of all my textbooks (when I get them >.>; )

Haha I hate that. Psychology I'm supposed to but I pay attention in class and she doesn't put anything in tests that aren't anything that she's talked about so I'm safe for that course. Biology though I really should seeing as the notes my teacher gives don't appear on the tests at all but what's in the textbook .. which I haven't even removed from my locker.

xD I keep borrowing books and returning them before I write them down, and I lose track.
There's this idiot at school that keeps insulting me for reading. He tells me to get a life. In my opinion, he should get a brain. Honestly. A life in his idea is going out and getting his rear end in trouble. My idea is a job is being employeed somewhere that doesn't including wallowing in trash, which is where he's gonna end up if he keeps screwing around.

Ugh.. I hate people like that I usually want to take said book and hit them over the head with it. And hopefully it'd be a hardcover when I end up doing it. xD

I would never force my books to come in contact with idiots like that. It might rip their pages. =(
It's hard to ignore people like that, but they'll learn eventually. You can't exactly get far in life without being forced to form a complete sentence.
Edit: We're up to 25 readers now! Yay!

Haha, I'd never actually do it.. I take care of them too good. Even so at Chapters Bookstore where I work, even if I take care of them they're always throwing themselves at me.

Yay I'm actually really excited for this! =] I have a ton of books I want to read, but I always end up being lazy and go do something else... hopefully this will get me reading D<
I do have to study for finals this week and next though, so that will cut back on my time this month =[ But I'll make up for it next month, definitely!
Anyways, I have to study for now :3 Thanks for adding me already!

No problem. =)
I have about one week left before classes start up again. I plan on lying around the house and doing absolutely nothing. That way, I can get all of my laziness out of my system and be ready for school again.

Ooh ;o I was shown this thread by Stardrops :]
I always have a list of "To Read" books but it seems like I never read any books other than the books that are required for english.
>_____>;
I used to always get books from the library and I'd read them because I had the time to. >___>;
Anyway, I guess this seems pretty cool :]
A book I'm planning to read, getting it tomorrow from a friend, Eclipse by Stephenie Meyer, a sequel to Twilight. ;D

I don't think I got enough of my laziness out of my system when I was on winter break... I'm still generally unmotivated to do anything. XD!
But now I have to force myself to revise my english essay and then prep for french, and then I should have time to draw for an hour or so after dinner. =D

@ Kale - xD Amen. Though, good thing I resisted. I was reading the last Harry Potter book when he said that. =P
Once, though, he pulled on my hair. I instinctively threw my hand back in a knifehand, and he dodged it. And once he tried to grab my backpack, and I was halfway through a roundhouse kick on him when he back off. Again. You'd think he'd leave me alone after that, eh?
@ Knred - D= Omg, you have a good point!
Lol. I'm amazed some of the people in my class can complete a full sentence.
@ Heartbeats - I'm reading the book before Eclipse right now. New Moon.
@ Kit - Lol. I insult him occasionally, but that's a waste of my air.

It has actually been proven that people who read, do end up with better futures and jobs. The people who don't read end up working for the rest of their lives with crap jobs to support them.
You should tell the kid that. It'll make him shut up.

He'll learn one way or the other. I bet at some point it'll just click, and he'll realize how much time he's wasted. Hopefully it won't be too late by then.

lol. I stare at people as if their crazy to not like reading.
All the kids in my English class are reading books around 200 pages, or what ever the smallest one is, and I choose the longest one. The longest one is Roots which is in my list. Funnily enough, I'm the only one reading it.
