Yes we understood you the first time :)
yeas since you repeated twice but feel free to repeat again we have all day

i dont think i like audio books, just cuz i have an idea of how the characters sound when im reading their lines, and it will always get destroyed if i hear an audio reading lol

agreeing, as always, on dislike of audio books

ahahah idk, i have to be reading it word for word to truly immerse myself fully into the world im reading about lol. thats the only way i can block out everything
when im reading, its like anything i hear just becomes white noise and so all the rest of my senses are focused on the book. but if im listening, i dont feel like my senses are totally closed off to the world and it just doesnt have the same effect
i know its weird....but its the only way i can read

sorrryyyyyyyy ill stop now
i will never mention again on this discussion or any discussion you and i are in, the word that shall not be named lol
wow okay i didnt know i thought you were joking but okay we shall stop and never mention that name again in good old voldermort fashion :) Vixen wrote :"rest of my senses are focused on the book. but if im listening, i dont feel like my senses are totally closed off to the world and it just doesnt have the same effect" exactly i cant concentrate i start thinking about random stuff like "what am i going to wear tomorrow?" and then tune back in and im like what?? why>>? what just HAPPENED?!

GOMENNASAI!!! >.<

hey do those tape things actually work, you know when people buy tapes and listen to them and fall asleep with them, people say you retain more memory of whatever youre listening to while youre sleeping...
thoughts?

YEAH and also the person's voice sometimes ruins the mood or they read it in a way that makes it sound bad. :(
yes! i prefer listening to my own voice, coz im not big headed at all or anything...lol

IKR! and when my mum calls me and asks me to do something, sometimes I dont hear her! LOL

yeah because its not said how you imagined they would say it

ahahahh Sns, not egotistical at all XD
i will save you and say because only we know ourselves how we want our characters to sound and say things lolll

yeah just tune her out lol. they get so madd

like ive heard of some people when they wanna learn a new language they sleep listening to the tape and wham, next morning they dont know everything but theyve picked up a lot cuz its driven into their subconscious
or those self-help tapes....like a form of hypnosis if say someone has an eating problem and they listen to a tape of someone saying idk "this food is bad" over and over again and next morning, when they go to eat it just pops into their head that OMG THIS FOOD IS BAD FOR ME
maybe not that exaggerated but still

EXACTLY!

oh yeah.. then Im forced to put down the book.

oh no the tuning out thing wasnt to you!
tuning out the moms when they call you cuz youre too engrossed in your book

lmaooo you kill me!!
are not just to engrossed in your book but you pretend to be engrossed in anything so that you dont have to do what she says, sometimes i stare at a potato like its a pot of gold so that my mum doesnt disturb me, quite sad really, 19 and i live with my mother...

staring at a potato!! but yeah sometimes pretending to be involved in the book, or pretending to be asleep lol
and elizabeth, based on your reaction about the tape things, really, youve never heard about that and the subconscious?
ive always kinda wanted to try it and see if it actually works
sure beats studying
