I remember I didn't have a really high AR er... pointage(?) I was never a reader. I don't read a lot, except for ASOUE and the books I've already read before .

Well, you guys won't believe me, but I finished it in 2 1/2 hours. That is insane!!!! I must be a super slow reader, cause it took me like a whole day! But, when I read, I go slow because I play out the whole book in my head like a movie, making sure to imagine each character "saying" their lines etc... So it isn't speed reading, but I get a lot more out of it then I would if I just read it fast... MATT

I do the same thing as Matt to. I read slower because I want to be an "active" reader. It took me like 4 hours just to read TBB!

That's funny. I do that too and I'm the fasted reader in my class... Or maybe my whole class is just very slow...

i had never heard of lemony snicket and then i heard of him like 2 or 3 times in a day. so, naturally, i had to check it out. and on the topic of shopping: i could spend hours in a cd store and almost as long in a book store. depending on where i go, i love clothes shopping. its something like this:
kohls/goodys/stores like that: ok.
old navy: better.
hot topic: ill take one of everything, please.

Kohles is actually a store?? I thought Luna was making fun of me/making a very lame joke.

no, and they're pretty cool, but the main reason i like them is i got my pink floyd shirt there for $9. (also, later that same day i was at hot topic and saw the exact same shirt for $18. HT is my favorite store in the whole wide world, but they are a little pricy.)
