New Hobby - Reading Books

I have a new hobby right here. I have started to purchase and read books. Not just books assigned by professors, but I have started to read any kind of books, especially inspirational books. I just start to figure out how fun reading could be.

Lemme see, I found my new hobby during Christmas holiday last year. I had almost nothing to do after my trip back from Indonesia. I wasn't really thinking of hanging out and I wanted to be alone most of the time. I didn't really touch my game consoles and my PC. I wasn't up for anything.

Somehow in the middle, I got bored. Boredom is the most annoying thing. So I started to look around, trying to find what I can do. And, I started to read old comics, magazines, and newspapers. The most book that I read was The Art of War I purchased from Singapore. Once I got tired from reading it, I went to Chapters and started to wander around. I bought myself a book and my sisters some inspirational books.

Ever since then, I start reading when I am bored and tired from school work. Apparently, reading isn't that bad at all. This hobby took me more than twenty years to discover. Many people had suggested me to read books before. But I was being stubborn. Well, somehow, I had never understood how fun reading could be. Now, let's see how much I can read and learn from this new hobby.
