i. read.

The past two days I was definitely engrossed on catching up on my readings. The past months, due to school works, I didn’t have the opportunity and luxury to sit down and read a good book. I hardly read books the past months, maybe because I don’t have good books at hand lately, be it owned or borrowed. That is why, thanks to my dearest friend Jack, who allowed me to ransacked her new bookshelf and lend me 3 books to read. And now that school’s over for me (for now) and I’m stuck home babysitting my nephew, I have the comfort of reading. No more excuses.

Reading for me is one of my heavens. It helps me widen my knowledge plus improves my vocabulary. It allows me to gain new insights on things ranging from trivial ones to complex issues. It assists me on ticking on my creative brain lobe and allows my imagination to travel on its own course. It gives me the motivation to blog more since I read more. Its one of my source of inspiration as a blogger, I guess.

For some, reading is very tedious and boring. But for booklovers like me, it is but a refuge. I always tell my husband that I love the smell of books everytime I go inside a library or bookstore, that somehow it kinda possess me and I am transformed into panic mode. That is why, when I have few bucks at hand, I see to it that I don’t go inside those bookstore, for it only pains my heart not to take them all home. (hehehehe) I would want to be their mother and caress them into my arm and tuck them carefully unto my bookshelf. (hehehe) Well, see even now, just by imagining it, I get into a “panic-possess mode” already.

Anyway, I’m enjoying every single second as I turn the pages of the book that I am reading; savoring the moment of getting back on one of my comforts and heavens --- reading.
