12.5.11-12.11.11

Through all of my education, I have never been a fan of reading as an assignment. I was never a big reader to begin with, so when given a book for a book report or anything similar I felt forced to read which furthered my dislike of reading. As I got older, though, and found time to read "what I wanted to read" I found that I really enjoyed reading. This assignment did not make me hate reading; in fact, it did the opposite. I found myself wishing I had more time to read. I realized that my feelings about reading were not about reading itself but about the time that it required. I am now looking for my next book to read (which I have never done in my life). I won't, however, continue to be a blogger. I enjoy reading others blogs, but I am not much of one myself. Overall, I really enjoyed this unique assignment because it forced me to have time to read (sort of an oxymoron but it worked!) and I will continue to read for pleasure after the class is over.
