Reading

Do you ever like how reading a novel can put your mind in a completely different world? It's as if the words can make the topic a real place with real people. I mean, normally authors write about people, but then there are ones about aliens from different planets, or really anything you could possibly imagine.

It's also good for taking your mind off your current problems. I mean, if the novel you're reading is about someone saving the galaxy, or investigating a serial murderer who is roaming the streets preying on young women, it probably puts your problems into a bit of perspective. Lets hope that the problems you have don't get worse than the above two examples. Try not to read novels about vampires trying to sparkle and kill each other. I think its probably a bit too far fetched and brings your problems back to haunt you. Especially if the first three quarters of the book are about a depressed girl. You know what I'm talking about.

This is totally different from reading a textbook. When I read a textbook I either a) struggle to understand what its trying to tell me, or b) fall asleep. Sometimes both of these things can happen at once. Reading this post again is making me sleepy.
