While lazing around this humid afternoon, my external disk caught my attention and I thought that maybe it was already time to sort it out. A big part of my life is captured inside that little square disk and I was thinking that maybe I should really look into it now while I still have the time and "connection" so that I can do something productive and yeah, it's also eating up my supposedly "WORK TIME" and I was like, "Naaah, it's okay, it's time for me to face it."
Well, I'm really quite fascinated by books because I like how I can immerse myself from one story to another while I was living in my own world of imagination and I can interact with the characters with only a flip of a page. I usually like reading during the dawn when there are no distractions bothering me and I can read books without care because usually its the time when the world is dead at its feet. I also like to hunt at booksales or buy secondhand books or I would just borrow some of it from my friends and acquaintances, but the feeling of owning these beloved books is what I aim to achieve and I'm envisioning my own library in my own home once I have the means to do it.
I admit that although I'm a book lover, I don't really have enough money to buy hardbound and paperbacks but lo and behold!, I was really ecstatic when I discovered the world of ebooks, and thus started my unending downloading of a whole bunch of electronic books. It was really a great find for me, a poor college student without money to spare for good books. It also started my late night reading until the crack of dawn and with only five minutes left for me to prepare for my first class of the day, so sometimes I just go to my classes without any sleep and my eyes full of bags, but it's okay as long as I can read.
My friends call me an addict because once I'm reading I cannot tear my eyes from it. I forget about everyone around me and I just usually ignore everything that's happening, so yeah, totally not cool. My sister also always complained because whenever we're together during my school break, I will just read instead of spending some time with her. Yeah, its quite bad that it already affects my social life and sometimes my acads but no, I'm still not affected by its consequences, or so I thought.
Well, nothing drastic really happened to me but I knew that my grades were not really that great, only average. I know deep within myself that I can do better but I didn't exert my full effort to achieve my full potential thus I was only an average. Average student, with average looks and average number of friends, not quite popular but not socially an outcast. Oh well, life is good for me and I'm contented with what I have. (Although, I know that it's not okay., so yeah screw procastination and laziness!)
Oh, my thoughts are quite scattered now like how my lists of ebooks are also scattered. What I'm really trying to say right now is I'm hoping that I can finish organizing my files of ebooks so that it would look better and its a good exercise for me to organize my thoughts as well (still hoping). So, I'm sorting everything...copying, cutting, deleting, creating new folders, sorting by authors, sorting by titles, and so forth and so on.
Just hoping that I can finish this now so that I can now focus on what's really important. "MY WORK", so that I can have the means to create my wonderful library, a world of my own creation where I think, I really belong.
Feeling hopeful! Ja'ne.
