So, I've run out of scheduled posts, and I feel so guilty because I haven't read since August. That's like, extremely sad. No books = no book reviews, and book reviews make up most of my blog posts.
I've titled a discussion post with "So many books, so little time.." before, hence the "This again?!" part of it.
I just wanted to discuss with y'all, reading should be viewed as a sacred pastime and there's supposed to be time for it every day, but frankly, for me, I've had no time at all since school began.
I feel stupid for taking two AP classes without getting the feel for it first.
Each day I'm working until 11PM with homework, or even later, and getting around 5-6 hours of sleep-- before, I usually got 8-9.
And now there's no time to read.
I itch to get some reading done, but I also itch to balance my grades..
What do you guys think? Is reading as important as schoolwork, and should it be viewed as a sacred pastime?
What about making time to read every few days at least? When I was in school, I remember someone telling me I'd better say goodbye to reading until my classes were over and yes, I slowed down, but if reading is an escape and a sacred pass time, what favor are you doing yourself by taking it away? Make time girlfriend! Don't sacrifice your grades, but don't sacrifice your sanity either! GOOD LUCK!
ReplyDeleteI do think that you shouldn't see it as homework because then you won't find alot of joy in it. I just went through a period of time where I couldn't even look at the book and completely abandoned my blog. If you want to read - do it when you want to and not because you have to. I try to find time when I'm eating, when I'm in traffic (audiobooks), or when I finally have some time for a bath.
ReplyDeleteGood luck!
