I can read!

When I was an elementary student I used to read a crap load of books. Yes, a crap load. I loved it. Then reading had to become an academic thing with age so I stopped reading for pleasure. I cant really remember a book I enjoyed reading throughout high school (except for All Quiet on the Western Front.) I'm so lucky sparknotes exists! Without it I would have failed every essay. Recently I have started to read out of pleasure again. I started off with a girly classic Pride and Prejudice. And let me tell you, the beginning of it was brutal. I turned to sparknotes for help because it just wasnt piquing my interest. By the 3rd day of trying to get through this book it got easier. I actually started to enjoy the book. And thus my reading phase began. My sister gave me a book to read and I finished all 500 pages in two days. Today, I went to the dollar bookstore (HOLLEERRR!!!!) and bought 4 books for myself. 8 books cost $7.68. Freaking fantastic! I should have read for pleasure when i was younger, as it probably would have enhanced my vocabulary a crap load. leviathan. The end.

ps i'm full. it's 2 am. i had a snack after resisting the urge to snack a moment earlier. i'm regretting my downfall quite a bit. tomorrow I WILL work out!
