Hello Guys! Where r u? What have you been up to these last couple of day?

[Caitlin]

I'm reading and eating.

I'm reading and lost in the book world.

I think they count. I personally don't like listening to audiobooks, but what about the blind people out there that can't exactly read regular books? Sure there's braille, but how many books are translated? and I hear audiobooks are easier than braille. Anyways, are you going to tell them that just because it's an audiobook, it doesn't count as reading? It's just another way to digest the contents of the book.

Like just count whatever the f*ck you want. Like honestly, it's just an online challenge. It's supposed to be for fun. I don't get what the fuss is all about, it's completely unnecessary.

I also find it weird that you have to debate whether ebooks count - it's just the electronic version of a book, so why the hell wouldn't that count? Just because you're reading it on your kindle or phone instead of the physical book copy? Like that doesn't even make sense why it wouldn't count...

[Mystic Orange]

You could have removed the swearing completely

Anyone would have interpreted what the censored word meant.

If you are not visually impaired should you count audiobooks as reading?

[Priyanka]

Yes....audiobooks should be counted....I mean whats wrong in it.
It's always good to listen to a book than reading specially while travelling in the crowd...thats my opinion.

[Mystic Orange]

So how is everyone?

[*❆ Kαɾҽɳ ❆*]

Hi Rumell :)

I'm doing okay, how are you going ?

And how is everyone else? Anyone else stressing over their studies? (I am most definitely am!)

me! I have so many readings and papers this year, I honestly can't even. I keep on feeling so anxious in the middle of the night that it's making it hard to read peacefully ;w;

Ah Girl I understand you completely!!! All the assignment have made me stop reading for a few days! Its awful not being able to sleep properly! :(

What are you studying?

[Mystic Orange]

College is cancelled and I am not happy about it. Just because of snow. But if you look out it is not even that bad. That should not be an excuse to miss out on education.

I've heard in the news that in the U.S if you stayed outdoors for too long, you could easily lose your life slowly. So maybe they're taking extra precaution?
Do your tutors or lecturers post the work online when these situations occur?

[Mystic Orange]

No. Which is stupid. They used to do that last year. But they are making things difficult for us. We have learning box but the tutors have not added anything. Last year was way more better.

[*❆ Kαɾҽɳ ❆*]

That's really odd. You should email them about it. Cause it isn't fair that you all missing out on important information when the internet is easily accessible at home for you to keep up to date on the work.

[Mystic Orange]

We have sent a student voice to them. But I guess they are just lazy.

[*❆ Kαɾҽɳ ❆*]

How annoying, hopefully they do respond

[*❆ Kαɾҽɳ ❆*]

How is everyone's day? Is the weather crazy for you too?

For me I'm dying in the heat!

[Susy]

Lol, here it’s snowing 🌨

[*❆ Kαɾҽɳ ❆*]

Oh wow, how cold is it ? Has been snowing for days now Susy?

[Susy]

No not really. It snowed last week like 2 or 3 days. And it’ll be snowing today and tomorrow. Temperatures are fluctuating between -6C and +4C, so not extremely cold thank God! 6 years ago it was -20C :(
I would be so happy to live in a country where it’s always above +20C!!!

Lol, at our school all our students would be excited to have a snow day. our school freaks out easily too. that being said, even if it doesn't look bad, if it makes it difficult for commuters to reach the school then they will often cancel (such as icy conditions in surrounding locations, etc.). here in Texas, they freak at just a little bit of ice. one time we had a snow day and not even two hours after the announcement everything was sunny and clear :v no snow or ice in sight. it was a little bit funny honestly. they made us have a makeup day on a different holiday though so that was X'D lol

Ah..."

My classes are a lot of history, geography this year. Plus a physics class and lab.

[Audrey]

We’ve never had a snow day. One time it was snowing hard and really icy, and the school bus drivers refused to go out in it, and still school went on. If it’s below 25 F (5 C) it just means they stay inside for recess.

That's really sticking to the motto, "The show must go on." XD

[Aqsa, Dracarys!]

Hey everyone!

[Aqsa, Dracarys!]

What's going on in all your lives?

[Lantian]

Aqsa wrote: "What's going on in all your lives?"

Currently reading before bed :) I'm eagerly waiting for the weekend to go back home, and more importantly, to the bookstore! My parents gave me $100 for Chinese New Years, and of course, I'll be spending them on juicy, juicy new books.

[Aqsa, Dracarys!]

Haha yay! I am so out of money for books right now. I won't be buying anything new this month which sucks.

How many books do you plan to buy?

[Rabiraj]

I am thinking of buying like 10 more, saving some money up for some classics

You too? I feel like the odd one out though I recently spent it on books still to be read on my shelf

I hope you get to buy the good ones :)

I'm not quite sure, probably whatever catches my eye as long as it's under $100. TBH, I was also not gonna buy any books for a while, since the past couple of weeks I've bought a good amount. But, blame my parents for the New Years money! The only confirmed book on my list is If We Were Villains, since I ordered it from my bookstore. Aside from that, I might see if I can pick up Daughter of Smoke and Bone. Any others, I'd have to take a look at what my bookstore has.

I usually buy on impulse. Just whatever gets me. But thanks to GR and the amazing reviews all you guys post, I do it with confidence :)

I know! It's all their fault, right? A fault you must love!

And do share your shopping with us.

[Mystic Orange]

I'm researching shopping that we buy from supermarkets stores.

I will. I also feel quite confident when I buy books because of the reviews :) Ugh, I already can't wait for Saturday!! I wish it'd get here sooner D'X until then, I think I'm gonna start reading Vengeful for now o3o

Yeah it's hard waiting, but excellent idea! Happy Reading!

Aqsa wrote: "And what did you find Rumell?"

Most people waste on so much groceries that they do not need. People waste things that they buy. People these days do not think thoughtfully on what they really need. Money has gone in their minds.
