The only time I really get to read is during my lunch break -- and that's not even time devoted just for reading. <br />I tend to read at night, but that is exactly the reason why these eyebags just never go away.Jillianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07629286727932554109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2897777812787333518.post-23919361114013987062010-05-10T11:19:09.401-07:002010-05-10T11:19:09.401-07:00I'm with Natalie.

But I take my learning seriously too and even though it's REALLY (and I mean REALLYREALLYREALY) hard to put down my book, I do it so I don't flunk out of college, lol. I read almost everyday, whenever I can. Sometimes I'll go to class extra early and while I'm waiting for my teacher to arrive (college professors tend to be late), I'll just sit back at my desk and read. Or when I'm waiting for the bus or even when I'm ON the bus heading home, I read. There are pockets of time and I use every single one @_@Sandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18119179764394966859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2897777812787333518.post-69540529850158364742010-05-10T05:35:36.087-07:002010-05-10T05:35:36.087-07:00I have a difficult, suck-ass job.

But since finals are around, I feel my compulsive reading habits are kicking in.

I work over 40 hours a week and maybe I get a day off. I try to blog at least an hour an night even just to check up on blogs I follow and comment. And I try to post at least three times a week. But ya know RL never goes as planned haha!Rheannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14901725656383974472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2897777812787333518.post-8384027127766169222010-05-09T18:23:51.415-07:002010-05-09T18:23:51.415-07:00I know exactly what you mean!

I just finished my spring semester (I'm a non-traditional college student majoring in history and English), thank goodness! That was really eating into my reading time. Plus I was sick the week before last with strep throat and it looks like I'm getting sick again. All that on top of being the mom of two (rowdy) elementary age boys and working and RL really can put a damper on reading. I am hoping that I'll get a lot of reading done this summer since I have four glorious months until fall semester starts...YAY!Michelle Stockard Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03572227726980569386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2897777812787333518.post-48413358821694643732010-05-09T15:12:13.582-07:002010-05-09T15:12:13.582-07:00Omg i was think about that too!!

My job (teacher) takes up an enormous amount of time - then there's the kids, house and all the other usual stuff.

It's still really hard though. But 10 min. here 15 min. there and it adds up to a few hours a day.
