Bloody Bookaholic's Commandment:

Thou Shall Read Till Thy Eyes Bleed

Tuesday 24 August 2010

Teaser Tuesday/College Girrrl

"Your mother is a master of the obvious. Most of what she says to you is stuff you already know or stuff you'd have to be an idiot not to see.

Kyle, your room's a mess.
Kyle, you're failing science.
Kyle, you're old enough to have a job.
Kyle, you never bring any books home.
Kyle, at this rate you're not going to get into college.

Either she enjoys pointing out what you already know or she thinks you're an idiot.

"Kyle, that's a full gallon of milk. Hold on so you don't drop it."

She thinks you're an idiot."

How many of you have ever felt like this? I think this is a great passage that will resonate with a lot of teenagers. Plus is funny.

Hello people, I'm back. Sorry for being absent for 2 days but I was a) moving, b) attending my first day at college. IM A FRESHWOMAN!!!! It's great. I live with 4 other girls in an apartment, have my own room, own bathroom, mini fridge and microwave included in the mini kitchen (all of this is inside my room). So I'm having a good time!

Ive had to buy 3 books for now (need like 9 more). About 150 dollars, an this is because I rented them. Let me tell you, these books ain't cheap.

An right now am looking for a job. I will do my very best to finish one book per week, but you gotta understand that is difficult when you have to read so much else.

Love,

  1. Welcome to college life, girlie! I'm sure you'll have LOTS of fun figuring out how to balance everything...though take it from me...your "fun" reading time probably will get cut short, but I'm sure you'll be able to make SOME time. I try to make a habit of reading every night before I go to sleep, but since I'm an English major, this frequently turns into "cram time" for me. I've got 15 novels I have to read this semester, and that's not counting textbooks! Yikes...

    Good luck! I'm sure you'll do great! :D

  2. Good luck with your 1st college year! It really makes you...or breaks you - and I hope you fall in the former category :) I know I had a hard time with having ANY time to read for pleasure - and summer I had to work like a madwoman. I hope you have a different experience!

    Great teaser - I have certainly felt like that sometimes, especially when they repeat it many times in a row!

  5. I'm glad to hear your liking college life! Tomorrow will be my third day as a college Freshman. :)
    Right now its slack but I'm sure the work will pile up soon. Hopefully you will have time to read more than one book per week. Its sad to think that when we were in high school and during the summer we had time to read so many books. Good Luck in college Taschima!
