Reading for pleasure vs reading for school

Hello everyone!
It's been wayyy to long. I know and I'm so sorry. I've just been caught up writing, because as some of you may know this month is November and November is novel writing month. I've been writing like crazy and whenever I can, but that's not where most of my time is taken up. I have spent so many nights studying for exams and so many nights worrying about them. I'm a naturally anxious person and when a stressful event happens you can bet that I'd be very stress out and worried. You may wonder what this has to do with anything, but it will make sense, because today I will be discussing reading for pleasure against reading for school.

Reading for pleasure is this beautiful thing where you can just enjoy yourself and read because you want to. Read because you have a passion for it. Read because books are freaking amazeballs! You can completely lose yourself in the text and enjoy, While reading for school your mind is always thinking about what the hidden symbolism in it it. What the author was discreetly trying to convey. How you should structure you analysis essay. You can't simply enjoy the whatever you're reading. Don't even get me started on reading to memorise. I have read so many facts this week and tried to cram them into my brain. That is probably my least favourite way of reading. Reading something that you have no interest in, over and over, so that it stays in you brain.

I find it sort of funny how whenever I want to read for myself I would want to drop everything and read it straight away, but when it comes to reading for school I would do whatever I can to avoid it and be the queen of procrastination. It is as if once it has a connection to school my brain is like 'Nope, I'm done with this. Don't make me read it." It's not a conscience choice, my brain just doesn't want to do it and it is very stubborn. *yup, Kellie blame it on your brain and don't place the blame where it is meant to me, you and your lazy ways* You are probably really worried about me, because I'm talking in third person. Don't worry, I may be a little weird, but I'm fine. Just a little sleep deprived, but fine. :)

I hope you enjoyed today's random post. I just missed it and had to write something and this just blurted out of my brain. :P
