In my life I have read no books for pleasure only if I had to read them in a class. Most of the time I feel like it is boring to read I would do it if it excited me and made me want to read, but I have not found any book that makes me want to read. In the past I have tried to read books, but when I do I always pick one that is interesting but it is very hard to read and it makes me quit reading. Most of the time when I find something I like to read I get about three fourths of the way into it and I quit reading it. I never understood why I do it either.
When I read by myself I read at about the same speed as everyone else but when I read out loud I read really slow and choppy. That is probably the reason I don’t read much when people heard me read they would make fun of me and call me names and it made me dislike reading even more. The worst part about that is my friends would do it too and that made it hurt even more. But look at me now I am in college trying to make something of myself and they are still living with their parents not working and going nowhere in life.
Rodriguez and I are very different in things we like to do he liked to read and stay inside and read, but I always could not set still long enough to read and I always wanted to be in different spots all the time. I read things he did not understand just to say he read it, but I would look at something and if I did not understand it I would walk away from it because I was afraid of stuff I did not understand.
