Reading and Learning

Studying. One student's escape and the others reason to want to escape.
It truly is strange how I find learning so interesting. Well, at least the topics I like or am curious about...not all.
Many of my classmates tell me how sick and tired they are just thinking about studying, but me on the other hand....I usually can't relate!
The reason behind this is probably the fact I really enjoy studying and I don't think of it as a burden. Or maybe it's because I'm so used to escaping reality into a world of books...so now, that liking has been generalized with all related aspects.

Many of my classmates think of me as a total book-worm or a boring uninteresting person or a nerd because I like reading and I am super ambitious when it comes to learning different topics of my liking.
But it's fine.

I don't judge them cause I realize that everyone has their own way of escaping from reality. There's no fixed way or the only way to do so.

I've honestly not always loved reading or learning.
I used to like playing outside in the sun, in the grass, with people who shared the same interest.
But once I started reading, (books without pictures, excuse you!) I totally liked the way I could imagine and visualize the things I read and the loved the sensation of being in a different dimension. And also the way I'd get surprised when I came back to reality and realized that all I was imagining, was in my mind. Similar to the experience of a thought train I guess.

Learning and reading is fun. They go hand in hand...(in many cases)
I've learnt a lot, thanks to the many books and articles I've read and I really would love to thank the authors who put in so much effort to share their knowledge and experiences with such people like me!
