I am a married 20-something and I live in a small town with my wonderful husband and my wonderful cat. I work in higher education, and am pursuing my MBA. I have loved reading since my first book ("I Teach My Dog 100 Words"); in fact, when I was younger the librarians at our local library used to admonish me to leave some books for the other... more »

    oh, stress, what's that, oh yeah, it's the stuff that causes your blood pressure to rise, and blood glucose to go out of wack, etc. actuall, classes aren't too bad, the world lit class is interestiing, and the geography class, violent weather, is just fascinating. i wish i could do more math, because some of that class requires it, and i don't have any math higher than algebra 2, and i can't even remember any of that!!

    School is keeping me busy. I sort of wish I had thought through all the extra classes I would need when switching from a BA to a BS degree... but live and learn and I do love parts of what I'm studying. It my brain would only click with Physics I would feel much better this semester. Are you studying economics for your MBA?

    I find time to read before bed, and then I read too late and end up with not enough sleep. I also have been posting reviews from last months books that I didn't get reviews written for. I also read a little in the morning. I've found it I get ready too soon before I have to head out for a class, I get fidgety, so I think I like rushing a little and just making it out in time to catch my train so I can get to classes on time. I'm looking forward to the weekend when I can read a little more then I do during the week.

    Thank you for the well wishes, I hope the term turns out being good too.

    Katy,

    Have put in for your friendship--you sound like me. At five I could read all the scariest fairy tales--the adult level ones, not the Disney, though I liked them, too. My kindergarten teacher used to call me to her desk when we were resting and ask me to read from her book and tell her what it said. I remember always understanding it and doing extremely well. My first three and a half of grade schools--yes, the nuns too--never were my skiils as appreciated as they were in kindergarten!

    I would like to know if we get more points for more books we read? I realized that I have alot of Chineese books in my TBR list that I can bump off and personally I know how great gail Tsukiyama is so I can manage to gobble her book up fast lol.
    So my prefrence goes to China.
