I love to read. I know a lot of people who just watch a movie and don't read the book when they have to do a book report. Our teacher got smart and started picking books that had no movie remakes. xd

I go to the bookstore almost every week. Always looking for something new to read. I tend to read 2 books or so every week at least, and if I am out of new stuff, I usually go back and pick up something I haven't read in a while.

And if that fails, I send my ninja to find ancient texts for me to read.... ninja

I LOVE reading The HitchHiker's guide to the galaxy! ^___^;;

I also used to play the violin, but now I play the keyboard in my spare time. ^___^;;

I had a college professor who actually picked almost all books that had movies, and just seemed to like to fill up class time with watching the movie versions of the books she picked out for us to read.... Keep in mind The Wizard of Oz is very drastically different from the movie, and it was a lit. class not a film and lit. class, and I started to get pissed off at her for not spending more time covering the material. -_-* Lazy teacher. ~_~

Wow, that would annoy me. I probably would have stopped attending that class and either failed it or dropped it...if I remembered to drop it in time. If I am taking an english lit class, I want to be reading the stuff and having discussions about it, not watching the movie that is based on the book razz

I myself do enjoy reading as long as the book interests me. I haven’t read any books lately, mostly because I, myself enjoy drawing far more than reading 3nodding . I have 2-3 years of Clarinet, 1 year of Flute, I know how to play the piano, drums and bass (guitar) a little. I am currently learning how to play the violin as well.

I how ever do hate school and I don’t do very well in it. It's not that I'm not 'intelligent' I just don’t do well in/with school. I’m more of the every day knowledge type of person I'm sure.

Lately I've been reading stories out of my Edgar Allan Poe book that I bought at a trinket sale thing that one of the Sisters at my school had (I go to a Catholic school). The book contains his complete works, so I'm perfectly satisfied biggrin

I hate lazy teachers like that, although I had a highschool teacher I'm sure my classmates wished were like that. I aced MacBeth but alot of them didnt since they didnt read the book, just watched the movie which they couldnt understand at all.

I still love to read. I wish I had more time for it, though! Since I do so much stuff, reading (along with drawing (until I started bringing a sketchbook with me to school, anyway) and writing) has kind of fallen by the wayside. Still, I read when I can...

I'm currently reading through the Dresden Files, and I've got to say, they're amazing! I'm also reading Middlesex and The Last Cato. I'll get through them all eventually, time or not.

My favourite kind of book, though, is the psychology book. I find *nothing* more interesting than them! Let me into a bookstore and I check the psychology section first.

As for instruments, I play the wooden double flute and sing. For the wooden double flute I kind of have to write my own songs, as I've never found sheet music for it. Still, improv is fun. I enjoy just making it up as I go.

I love to read books. Mostly horror and mystery though. I love reading anime too. If a book is interesting to me, then I'll keep reading until I'm done with it. I'm reading a really good horror book right now. I also steal wicca books from the bookstore Barnes N' Noble.

Reading is a passion I shall love to the very end. People say I could be a good poet, or a writer, or something along the lines of that. I don't believe so, but whatever. I love to read, and always will. -insert black heart-
