Well the saving reviews, and then some of the things from schedule you brought up a few days ago. Like you say one thing, another you say doesn't match, and then you work to correct yourself, I mean.

Your daily schedule? That you brought up?
@Wolf And we're trying to understand, it's just what you say isn't always lining up
Meaghan wrote: "Your daily schedule? That you brought up?"Honestly I have no idea what you are talking about.
Meaghan wrote: "@Wolf And we're trying to understand, it's just what you say isn't always lining up"Sorry,
@WolfWith the 13 hours working, 3 hours reading, 2 hours school, whatever thing? That we all talked about like 3 days ago
Wolf you gave us a schedule in this thread, that you go to school for only two hours, work for 13 hours, and then read for three hours, and then apparently sleep for six hours???
Reading this thread like...
Oh, that. I though you meant something else. If you don't believe me, that's totally fine with me. I mean I'm only going to be here for 3 more years.

HAHA
Meaghan wrote: "Be here for 3 more years?"Yeah, I will be 18 in about 3 years. I can deal with someone not believing me for a few years.
I'm honestly just wondering how you can finish up to 6 books in the 3 hours you have every day?
Wait how does this change when you're 18? I'm kinda confused by what you're trying to say xD

You said that you hadn't been reading much because you were working, and then you said that you had reviews saved up. Which is it?
@Sarah, I never said I hadn't been reading much because I had been working. I still have time to read. I have several reviews saved up.
Haley wrote: "I'm honestly just wondering how you can finish up to 6 books in the 3 hours you have every day?"I read fast.
@Wolf actually you did say exactly that a while back I believe.
Meaghan wrote: "Wait how does this change when you're 18? I'm kinda confused by what you're trying to say xD"I'm leaving in 3 years. I won't have time for reading any more, only work
Wow this has taken a twist... I love your pic Abby that is exactly what I was talking about. I can't post pix I'm on my phone.
Can I post this in the review threads as part of my reading? Jk.
Can I post this in the review threads as part of my reading? Jk.
Meaghan wrote: "@Wolf actually you did say exactly that a while back I believe."Ok, I don't remember that, but if I said it then I'm wrong I guess. Sorry for all the confusion.
@Wolf Yea but you read so far that it's getting unbelievable... 6 books in 3 hours? And they're not usually short books either
Wolf, I detect quite a few plot holes and continuity errors. You must clarify.
@Quirks Yea... Like I said before, back pedaling
I don't remember saying things that you all claim I said. I will take responsibility for being stupid and dumb though. I have to go, so I will be back though. I apologize for all the confusion. I won't be on for about 3 hours.
@Wolf. Are you secretly that girl that came out in the Ellen show that could read super fast. (Wishing I could post the video).
Meaghan wrote: "@Wolf Yea but you read so far that it's getting unbelievable... 6 books in 3 hours? And they're not usually short books either"You are just like everyone else. I can read fast, but nobody believes me. My entire family is just like that.
They are quite long books and it would be about 10 pages per minute in the 3 hours you're able to read.
Meaghan wrote: "@Quirks Yea... Like I said before, back pedaling"Thanks so much Meaghan. I'm a big liar. Thanks so much for saying it directly to me.
@Wolf I'm just saying that not everything is lining up. Not specifically that you're a liar... It's just causing a lot of points of confusion right now
Meaghan wrote: "@Wolf I'm just saying that not everything is lining up. Not specifically that you're a liar... It's just causing a lot of points of confusion right now"no, but what you are really saying is that i'm a liar.
Bye, everyone, I'm going to go hang out with my true friends who actually know me and believe me.
I'm on Wolf's side in this argument. Who's to say she can't read at work? I can get half a book read at work sometimes if it's slow. And audiobooks exist. Plus she could be a speed reader. Y'all are being kind of harsh.
Yeah, there's really no need to take offense. We're just curious. I mean, I don't know about other people, but I could never manage a 400 page novel in three hours.
Abby wrote: "I'm on Wolf's side in this argument. Who's to say she can't read at work? I can get half a book read at work sometimes if it's slow. And audiobooks exist. Plus she could be a speed reader. Y'all ar..."Thanks Abby. That really meant a lot to me.
@Quirks Yea... that's what I'm trying to say.And I'm not trying to be harsh, it's just hard to know what's really going on. (And for audiobooks, those still take quite long to listen to. And those are at set times and all.)
Quirks wrote: "Yeah, there's really no need to take offense. We're just curious.

You don't have to believe me, but I'm telling the truth.
I'll say it, I don't believe you, I don't believe that you worked 13 hours a day at the age of 14, I don't believe that you can read six books in three hours, these are things that are physically impossible and actually legally impossible, and quite honestly it makes even less sense that you are now saying you will not be able to do this when you're 18 because you will be working? So you will be working more than 13 hours a week when you're 18?

I'll be defending the country while you sit at home and lounge around. I already work more than the average person works. Thanks so much Berit.
That's what a true friend is like. It's actually not impossible, just for you.
I get fast reading, I really do. But there has to be a point where reading just becomes skimming.
Well, then I guess it's impossible to those who give up. Nothing's impossible if you really want to accomplish it.
It's just illegal to work 13 hours a week at the age of 14. I guess it is possible to read about 10 pages a book, but truthfully that's if you're skimming the pages. I understand there are audiobooks, but those can only be set so fast.

No, it's not impossible. Haley, you don't have to believe me.
Oh, and if you keep tabs on me and my activity in the other groups, go look at how I feel in the Problem Solvers group.
I didn't say it was impossible... I said it's possible if you are skimming. Lets say there are 150 words on one page. That's 1,500 words per minute. That's extremely hard to accomplish if you are not skimming.
