THE JOY OF READING

I've always had a close relationship with books. I mean, since I was a little child, I used to spend the majority of my time reading something. I used to read books really quickly and come back to my parents and ask them to buy me new books because I don't have anything to read. Back then I didn't have Internet, I didn't have computer at all and I had plenty of time for books. I'd choose a book over any other thing as a present and to this very day I consider a book as one of the best presents ever. You could probably call me a book worm and I wouldn't mind that at all. 
However, as the time went on, I had more and more things to do in high school, then University and with all that came many many obligatory books which aren't that interesting, so my book collection kept growing and growing without me having any time to pick them up. Which is so sad and I miss being able to spend so much time reading books when I was younger. 

Now it's all different not only because I don't have as much free time but because of the fact that Internet exists and even though I seriously love Internet, I sometimes regret spending so much time here while I could actually spend my free time reading a book. But once You enter the world online, it's really difficult to escape it, isn't it? I spend so much time reading blogs or many articles online and I really enjoy doing that because it still amazes me that You can find anything and reach everywhere with a click of a mouse.

But this year I have this one goal - I want to read more, I miss it incredibly. The feeling of opening a book and going through the pages is irreplaceable by any kind of technology. By the way, I find it impossible to read books on computer, it just doesn't feel natural to me. So from the very first days of January I picked up the book I wanted to read for a while - Harry Potter. I've read all the books and saw all the movies once but I feel like I forgot so many things and so much time have passed that it's time for me to get back to that world once again. Also, I think that because I chose Harry Potter, it's going to be much easier to keep my goal because it's impossible to stop reading it!
