Ok, well, that ^ was at noon, and this update is coming to you from 7:15. I kind of took a nap and then re-watched some Sherlock and then worked out. So. A for effort? It's still not 10!
I need to read more. Towards the end of 2011 I barely read at all, and I have no idea why. I just didn't and it felt horrible. These past few months have been the craziest of my life, but I've been reading a lot and that has definitely helped. I just...feel better about myself when I read. I've just been to Kayley's blog (http://kayleyhyde.blogspot.co.uk/) and saw her list of books, my best friend does the exact same thing. How do people read so much? How do people get things done?! I need so much more getting-done in my life. What have I gotten done today? Let's see...I ate an entire dark chocolate bunny head without even realizing it. That counts, right? Of course, I did infact have to get up, get dressed, go to class, and then to Mally's with my grandpa to get it first, so really, I have done like, so much today, guys.
I have no idea if I can even remember all the books I've read recently. I guess I'll try, but this is in no order. To make this easier, plays/books read for school count. Also, re-reads for the first time this year (an official rule Kate and I made for our book lists. There's a lot of technicality in book lists).
Books so far in 2012:
The Fault in Our Stars - John Green
The Great Gatsby - F. Scott Fitzgerald
Sloppy Firsts - Megan McCafferty
Second Helpings - Megan McCafferty
The Tempest - Shakespeare
Medea - Euripides
Oedipus the King - Sophocles
A Doll's House - Henrik Ibsen
The Glass Menagerie - Tennessee Williams
The Fellowship of the Ring - J.R.R. Tolkien (mostly, almost done)
That's a little shabby. I'll work on it.
I think you are beating me by a long way! Although I love to read I often don't because I forget or just don't have the time. I'm gonna have to get started too. x
ReplyDeleteSame here, gurl. I JUST got back into the swing of reading a lot.
DeleteI'm also trying to read more because in 2011 I think I only read like 10 books. :O I set a goal of 35 books this year. Maybe if you set a goal, it'll make reading to that goal easier?
ReplyDeleteI usually try to set a goal! I just haven't this year for some reason. It does help, though :D
