Yay! rachelmanija is here!

In other news, reading for school is never ending, I am incredibly sleep deprived from trying to keep up, and I feel I'm only barely keeping my head out of the water. As an example of how tired I am, it now takes me four days or so to finish a single volume of manga. Let us not even think of actual books with lots of text!

Yay for Rachel!

I remember when school was like that for me. It's why I almost have an allergy towards almost anything resmbling important literature.

ZOMG. Well, I actually don't mind reading the academic stuff; it's all the technical reading that's killing me.

Well, the serious literature, the tech/science stuff, the textbooks, etc. It's the combined force.

Rachel actually recced me a book a while back that seems really good, and I keep picking it up and thinking it sounds good, but everytime I start it, I get stalled because it's OMG JUST LIKE A TEXTBOOK! WITH TEENY PRINT AND FOOTNOTES!!!

Which has to be the shallowest reason ever. (I seem to be recovering so I should be able to read Serious Literachur And Things What Look Like It in a few months.)
