A Fantasy Lover's Thoughts #1




Why do we read? No seriously, why do we actually read? I mean I'm sure we all have different answers, and I'm also sure this question is asked from one book-lover to another time and time again. I know why I read though - I read because when I'm stressed, or maybe when I just feel like  being alone I've always found a great book to be the perfect companion. From a book you gain so much; you gain; knowledge, empathy, maybe a change of value, you learn to question yourself and others. Some books can touch us in ways people never will. We can sympathise with characters, hate them, get annoyed, and mourn for them. Yet we never might for a friend; it's not wrong, it's just the way it is. As book lovers we probably do tend to understand characters more than people themselves - that's why we love to read so much about them -because we get them.

Why am I Rambling? Well to be honest I have no idea :) I don't feel like reviewing right now, so I thought rambling would do the trick. It's not exactly late, well, not by my standards anyway. It's 11 pm; I've indulged myself way too much today and that can only mean one thing - I'm going to have to graft all day tomorrow. Well I knew that anyway so I guess I'll do as much indulging as possible today.

 Saturdays always are the best :) I have an urge right now to jot something down in my diary, yes I do have one and I am not ashamed to admit it! Actually, me and my best friend bought ours together - shes probably the only person I know who reads books.. no I am not joking. I don't think I've written in my Diary for a while now, but I do tend to write in it at random times. I'll just be sitting down, maybe doing some work, or be in bed ready to go to sleep, and I'll get this urge, "Omg I really need to write something, where did I put that damn Diary of mine!?" and I'll just start searching for my Diary out of nowhere. I think the last time I wrote in it must have been at least a month ago - I think I'll write some tonight - I love looking back at my previous entries; it's always fun to look back at what I was moaning over or gushing about. 

OK do you see that lovely yummy picture consisting of beautiful cupcakes and tea?? It has my name written all over it!! Can you believe I haven't had any tea all day, I know right? Something must be wrong with me, I have to have at least 1 cup per day or I feel as if I'm missing something -no wonder I have this silly headache *sigh*

My best friend text me yesterday after what seemed like ages. She wanted to talk, unfortunately I was on the way to to some - place - there's a crisis going on at the moment and I'm all over the place. I'm trying to stay strong though and not let it show. I have college on Monday and I don't plan on telling any of my friends, or my best friend - they'll just worry. Blogging at least and reading seems to soothe me. I think I'll head down for that cup of tea now - I'm craving like mad! Good night everyone and Happy Reading!:)
