I was correct

India

So, as I hypothesized in the summer it is nearly impossible to read freely. The times that I do get to read things that are not for school are when I’m on the bus, or when I’m working out. I have so many books on my kindle right now that go unread, and it makes me really sad. Lately when I do have a chance to read I have been switching it up from Eat, Pray, Love and In Search of Sisterhood. Hopefully soon I will have another book that I will have to read called, Awake by Wendy Raven McNair.

If you remember Asleep was one of the last books that I read over the summer and I loved every minute of it, so I’m really excited to continue with this trilogy and fly through that one as well.

I will continue to try and read more books, other than the numerous amount of textbooks that I have to read during school (Athletic Training major). You can always follow me on twitter, I tend to update that A little bit more.

Keep turning the pages!

Time has run out!!

India

With school starting I won’t have enough time to read as many books as I want.

This year I am attending the University of Pittsburgh as an incoming freshman. I am majoring in pre-athletic training. Just in that major I’m already swamped! Of course I’m going to try and read, but with text books, activities, sporting events, clubs, and the English classes that I’m forced to take (we all know English is not my best subject) I barely have any reading time.

Of course I’m so excited to go and start something new. I went to the same school for 14 years (K-12), so being around new people and in a new place is going to be a lot of fun.

If I think of something or if I finish a book in the 12 HOUR DRIVE to Pittsburgh I will certainly write about it.

Until then, keep turning the pages

The Perfect Place

India

Have you ever just wanted to find that perfect place to read, enjoy coffee or tea, or even a cookie and ice cream? Well I believe that I found that perfect place for me at Dr. Bombay’s.

Dr. Bombay’s is located in Candler Park and they serve an assortment of teas and coffee, and some amazing baked goods. All of the delicious treats are made here daily and the first time you come you will be hooked. They also sell books here. When a book is bought all the proceeds go to a place that helps animals.

The inside is just a magical feeling of comfort and subdued happiness, in the background you also will enjoy some smooth jazz. I absolutely love it here and I think that anyone should make it on their list to come find it in Atlanta. It’s definitely a well kept secret.

The alternative for counting sheep

India

Have you ever had those nights where you can’t sleep? Well the mattress people will tell you try and count sheep, maybe some parents as well. What my mom told me was to read a book. A lot of the time that backfired for me.

Sometimes when reading, I just can’t stop. I end up sitting in bed reading page after page, word after word, feeling emotions that would wake me up instead of putting me to sleep.

For example I read the Twilight Saga in less than 24 hours, but over the course of 4 days. Pretty much I couldn’t go to sleep would start one around midnight and then finish it around 4 in the morning, when I finally did go to sleep and wake up I would go and buy the next book the next day.

I guess what I’m saying is, be careful of what you read at night, you may or may not actually go to sleep. Read a boring book, or if you’re in school read your school book (those put me out immediately), but don’t read the book you’ve been dying to read, or no sleep for you. haha
