Sunday Salon: Reading Helps...

I had a really long week and I doubt it would lightened up for the few until May is over. I just found out how reading has become a golden opportunity and that really annoys me. I have this schedule where I have to read at least 30 minutes to an hour or more depends on the day it is, and as swamped I am currently at work, it is messing now messing up my reading scheldule to doing it (if I'm lucky) at least once per week! That is not acceptable to my standard!.

More over, I found out I am also stressed out from all of my work.

A couple of days ago, I ended up taking a reading break. Guess what! It worked! my stress just evaportaed into thin air. (well not all, half probably) Though I just want to abandon everything (which I can't) and just read.

I fixed that problem by getting myself this digital table clock. You know, the one that has it's own countdown alarm. I've setted it up to a 30 mins reading break and although it's hard to put the book down when the alarm screamed out. I just gave myself a treat by finishing the chapter instead.

Oh well.. beggars can't be choosers I supposed.

Reading for Darfur:
Ok, I just found this site called Book Wish Foundation where we can donate to the needs of the children living in crisis worldwide. One of the projects of this foundation, is to provide reading material for the people & children living in Darfur (that's Sudan if you don't know where).

I feel for the need to spread literacy to whoever I could reach it to. And that's not because I am a librarian either!




I'll leave the post off with the books I just acquired this week =D
