Into another world

These past few days I've been glued to reading. I bring a book to school and read... and read... and read. Reading is actually one way to put my mind off of stress. Theres just been so much going on, that I just wanna put everything behind, leave this world and drift into someone else's. And thats why I read. I read a lot of good books that make my mind drift into the world of the book... and its such a cool feeling. You tend to forget your surroundings. And all you see is the story, the characters of the story, the surroundings of the story. You feel the sadness if something unhappy is in the story and you feel joy if a certain group had won victory.

The only problem is that... when I do read in school... its hard to find a peaceful spot... 'cause theres always someone who would go "Oh Look!! Rhonwyn is reading again, lets go scare her..!" and then, yeah, they BOO me and I jump. They laugh, I almost get a heart attack. =S

Sometimes people tell me "Aiya Rhonwyn... you ah, everyday oso reading, like that no good you know... no social life lah, must go find a leng zhai!!". Yeah, yeah... no social life, find a leng zhai... ZZZZ. " DO you like any guy now??" some ask me. -.- Read my previous post... so what if the lovey-dovey hoo-haa around me makes me sick... if I read a lot and don't "socialise"... You don't have to know if I like someone or not.. its none of your business to know.

I don't lack a social life... I'm perfectly normal. Its just that I love to read and I don't see any problem with that.

So why don't people read much these days?? I did a survey with the boys in class the other day... 50% gave me and answer " Because reading is boring... all you do is see words! Computer games are fun... you not only have fun but you exercise your fingers". The other 50% gave me the answer "Huh??". Riight. And when I asked the girls... they mostly said... "I think reading is ok...". In class, a lot of students, well... most students.. or 95% of the students in class talk if theres a substitute teacher who enters class. Only 3 or 4 of us in the class actually read.

Why don't people read? Haih. Lazy-ness. Well one day they'll go to college and will have to start reading...

And for ok ok poeple to start reading, I recommend Enid Blyton... shes the author who gave me this hobby
For noobs.. I recommend Ladybird books..
For super-noobs, I recommend Barney and Sesame Street.


Just joking-lah.
