BOOKS

The holidays almost over. I have to go back to college on Monday. So I think I want to write something in my last couple days.

Well, this is about books.
I was not a book person. I didn't like reading. Except for Biology or another books which have some pictures in it.
I didn't like thick book. If I read a thick book (and sometimes it has small fonts) I would have a stomachache. Not stomachache, stomachache.
But let we just say stomachache. I know that's silly. But I still don't know why I always have this 'stomachache' while reading a thick book.
I also have the same feeling when I'm in the library. Weird.

So, now you know I didn't like reading.

One day (maybe a year ago), I read a blog. In that blog, she said she is a bookworm. She loves reading. She has so many books and then she said that someday she will built her own library.
She also said she really really wanna read ... (ok, I don't remember the title), but she can't find it in the bookstore, so she search the ebook.

Ebook. Click! (if you watch Conan, and when he realize something, there will be a 'Click', a flash of light and his eyes looks bigger. And that's exactly what I felt)
Ebook means electronic, it's not a thick book. And I will not have a stomachache! Nice!
So I have this idea, to search an ebook which written in English, so I can learn English as well. First, I looked for The Perks of Being a Wallflower (long time ago, I told you I really curious about this book). After reading this book, I feel like reading another books. Roald Dahl, Sidney Sheldon, Paulo Coelho, their books amaze me. :)

At first, I don't read book everyday. I read just when I want to.
But few days ago, I read Matilda by Roald Dahl. Matilda is a 5 years old girl. And she is a genius. She read all of the children's book in the library. Then she read another teenage book. She can spell although she has not in school yet. She has her own world while reading.
And that made me realized, I can have my own world too.
I realized books didn't just give you a story, but also a motivation, value, knowledge, dream, imagination.
I have to read more books!

Although I didn't like reading but I learn to love it.
So, in the end of this post, I hope you (whoever reading this) will grab a book and read it! I suggest not the Physics or Civic. Hahaha.
Reading a book is not a waste of time! So, have fun!


I'm sorry for my English. I know my English is not good enough. But I write this in English for practice. I hope you understand what I'm trying to tell you here.


OK, it's 3 a.m. sharp, so..
Good night (or morning)! :D
