-319 The kids at school always reading a book wherever they go are kinda sad, amirite?

by Anonymous 12 years ago

Sometimes, the worlds in books are so amazingly constructed, I simply cannot put the book down until it ends. This doesn't mean that I'm sad, it just means that I appreciate and enjoy literature. I feel bad for people that cannot find the beauty in being able to escape to another world created through a novel and your imagination, even if it is just for 20 minutes.

I literally get made fun of almost every day for reading. So, who cares? I'm mostly like more intelligent than any one who says that anyways.

It's not sad, it's called they just like reading.

This reminds me of Rory Gilmore.

I've actually had teachers stop me and ask how it is I don't run into walls and people when I'm reading and walking, they couldn't believe that I navigated the school with my nose in a book without incurring injury.

you people who disagree are missing the point. reaading is great and all, but when you are in the midst of a group of people, you should take advantage of it and be social! connect with the world! make your own story

I almost disagreed... Then I remembered those lunchtimes spent reading were because I had no friends.

I have no friends except for the ones in my books :P Okay, that did sound kind of sad. But, reading is AMAZING. And it's guaranteed that those kids who read all the time are going to turn out pretty smart. Here's a few quotes that I think illustrate this: "The man who does not read good books has no advantage over the man who can't read them." ~Mark Twain “If you have never said "Excuse me" to a parking meter or bashed your shins on a fireplug, you are probably wasting too much valuable reading time” - Sherry Chasin Calvo.
