With this beautiful weather we are having, I want a hammock.
I fold paperbacks in half if i own them. and i take the covers off of hardcovers. thats all i can think of right now.
agreed. i once was going to buy this book and so i smelled it to make sure it was a good book and this guy looked at me like i was INSANE! XD
Exactly. I was going to explain but decided it wouldn't be worth my time.
i love the smell of books! its so comforting!
mmmhmmmm... take that book-store-boy! ha!
YES! thank you.
see? this is why I love goodreads. people understand me here.

do people sneak up on you when you are reading? I get so engrossed that its really easy to make me jump! I remember being in a book shop and i was just sampling on of the books and my mother literally appeared out of no where and made me scream! it was so embarrassing and my mother was almost rolling on the floor in laughter
I'll be reading in class and the bell will ring and my friend will have to say my name like, twelve times before I'll look up.
I remember reading in class! it was always in RE and it used to be a competition, who could read the longest without getting caught!
I'm the master of reading when I'm not supposed to... haha :) class just gets sooooo boring, you know? And I keep my grades up, so most of the teachers don't really care. haha :)
yeah, i remember! although i used to write more than i read in class, especially in Sixth Form because it was easier to hide! :D but i spent pretty much every free moment reading back when i was at school, in break, lunch on the way to and from school, ahhh, those were the days! hahaha
:) yeah i can't write in class, it's just too hard to get away with...
plus my brain is too full of school to come up with anything any good... so I wait 'till I get home.

my best stuff always comes out when i was in class, and it was easier because i used my laptop to make notes on, at least i did in the 6th form, before that i would have two notebooks next to each other, one for school work the other for my own work so from the teachers perspective it just looked like i was writing notes :)
Haha nice :)
I do write down ideas in the margins of my notebooks though... :D

cool :) anyway i must depart otherwise i will never get up in time for my lecture tomorrow!
in school i read during classes almost all the time.iv done it so much that iv practically become an expert at it...exept when a smart teacher manages to catch me.;)
you are taught chinese in school? all we had was french and in my old, old, old school (i moved around a lot) we had Japanese but no Chinese!
once upon a time, a little girl loved to read. (yup, lame. i know.) this little girl also had a gerbil. one day, she was laying in a nice patch of sunlight on the living room floor, it was nice and warm. she held the gerbil in one hand, stroking it with her thumb, and in the other, the little girl held a nice, juicy apple. every few seconds the little girl would take a nice, juicy bite of apple and turn the book page with her pinky, and pet the gerbil. the little girl did not know about purex, or gerbil germs. she was a little kid, OK? the little girl, lost in her story, raised her hand to her mouth to take another bite of apple... and bit the gerbil, sitting in her hand, it freaked out and ran under the sofa. the little girl curled up in a ball and laughed so hard that she dropped her nice apple on the floor. 5 second rule. the end.

.......i don't even know what to say about that comment with the gerbil, I'm more than slightly disturbed!
trust me, you don't want to know. we watched this supposedly relaxing video, all the pictures were of seagulls and seaweed!
the gerbil's name was sand.
what kind of school do you two go to???
Maeve wrote: "Can I kill you? Please?!"hey, i din't name him! he came with the name. and his friend/mate was a white gerbil named... wait for it... snow. sand was a tawny brownish.
awesome! you should name it wubbly the second! Go Nero!
ok seriously worried about your school now!
we had a slushy machine too!! and we were allowed outside, why wouldn't we be? i remember at one school i went to you had to have permission to be inside during lunch and break!
we CAN go outside but I don't because if I did, I would not have a god time. enough said.
well, if i went outside most of the time i would get very, very wet! it rains a lot in england! especially up north
lots of rain in the northwest too :)
I keep changing my sitting position
yeah, I know I live there, but I still don't get it
i don't understand peoples obsession with England, I mean its ok as it goes but....its not that special
haha! although technically at this particular point in time I am not in England, I'm in Wales
wales is normally wet and cold, again nothing special! although at the moment the weather is gorgeous!!! but unfortunately im stuck in my Amarna lecture!
no, Amarna not Armana, its a period of Egyptian history
its called football, and cricket is AWESOME!!!! I LOVE CRICKET!!!
