I love reading books. Surprise leh.. haha. I hate textbooks, that is why I never get good grades at school. Who love textbook anyway? You nerds   :evil:   I have one favorite textbook during high school, though. It is a science textbook. Favorite chapter? “Genitals

I do not read many books during highschool because most of the time I was forced to study textbooks. Naturally, I avoid books whenever possible. I spent more time on WASD and mouse buttons.

When I am done with highschool. I had my first experience studying online. My university offers offline lecture and study notes. I can pretty much stay in room whole semester. That is when I start missing the smell of book again.

I started buying computer and car magazines. Soon, I realised I do not have money to invest in either any of them. So I started to buy Men’s Health. “At least I can take care of my own body” I told myself.

Men’s health magazine was my bible for two years. Then, I stopped buying Men’s health magazine because the content are repetitive. Well, you can say that I have a complete workout instructions now.  Olivia always say “why you always buy that book oh? You are still fat ar..”

shit 8-O

books

And then until one year ago, I started reading all sorts of books. Not limiting myself to magazines. I bought all sorts of books that range from politics, fishing, bibliography, motivational, guides to photography. I try to avoid fiction and non-fiction novels cause I think that’s wasting my time. Hehe :mrgreen: .

ebook

I download ebooks illegally too. Who doesn’t like free stuffs? :roll:

print

I prefer to print out ebooks than reading it on the screen. I won’t last even 5 minutes. Printing it out costs less than an actual book. Do you agree?

i picked up reading only about two years ago and started of with magazines too. Hehe. But now the reading has to be on hold since the textbooks in uni is too much words for me to handle. Haha. Still read the daily newspaper and buy about 2-3 magazines a month.
