My Career as a Reader

As is well known, books teach us to learn life, truth, science and many other useful things.

.In other words, they are our best teachers and wisest friends. This is the reason why our parents always encourage us to read more books.

When I was two years old, I can't really say complete sentence. At that time, my mom always read different type of books for me, through the every story to educate us. But, I was real begin to read at Grade 1. At that age, I think most children like to read children's books, like Snow WhiteCinderella. Sometimes sitting on the grass to read, the reading is not called reading, as watching cartoons on television, and read book only interested the illustrations.

When I can know some words I often sat on the sofa reading. If this book appealing to me, I will forget to eat. Now I like to read fashion magazine or the pursuit of entertainment gossip, but I never spend a lot of time to see, just read at the way to travel.

In fact I do not like reading. At first, I thinking reading is a waste of a lot of time, no extra time will allow me to do more interesting things. However, I gradually came to love reading, because I feel different types of books give me a different feeling, gives me a different inspirations. I an not particularly careful every words, On general, I like skim the boring bits, if I see the pieces I particularly like, I will to read several times. Whenever I love a book, I also spotted several time and to feel. Even when in a dream i am the characters in that book.. I think I have a good habit to read books, I never see end of the book first, because I think the process is the most important in every book.

Now I was in puberty, do not know what is love, will often see that a book about romantic love story, want be the hero and heroine in a book, sometime I see the plot of the book will be cry. In China, Many Chinese girl like to see that type of book, we always chat that after-school or on MSN, but the Chinese teachers not allow us to read, they think we will not make a good studying. Then we are just reading that once a month..

I remember, there was time I love to read ghost stories and suspense novels. I like to see the kind of terrible stories, and can't sleep at night. I always sitting under the table to read, if the stories scared me, I will hide in the bedroom. I also wrote ghost stories in my blog, my friends say I wrote the stories terrible than others. Now, I have at least 30 horror book and suspense book. But, just read that one time.

 I like reading, but I never been to the library, and I never got a library card, I don't like borrow from library. I would like to buy it, then to read. I think that I will have a sense of pride, the knowledge on the book will become my own. My friend always said I would be a waste of money to buy such a book, but I think I pay money to buy the book and to collection is the good idea.

In China, we believe " Have oneself in the book the gold room, have oneself in the book YanRuYu". Anyway, read more books is a such a good thing, can improve a person's temperament and content, I was so longing.
