Reading

So growing up, I never read. I remember Jason and I trying to force ourselves to read...quick story. In UT they had year round school and we were on a different track then the rest of the neighborhood. So when we were off school, no one else was AKA 2 bored kids at home with nothing to do. So, Jason forced me to read. All I remember was sitting on the couch with my book waiting for Jason to turn his page, then, naturally, I’d turn mine. What!? I couldn't let him think I was a slow reader! Moral of the story, i didn't read growing up, just didn't happen.

However, this life style was bound to change when I had a book lover roommate in college (thanks lyssa) who also made/forced me to read. Not to mention my loving husband who was an English major. So yea, I have converted to the reading side and I have to say, I missed out as a kid. Poor lil doss.

The first series I got into, Twilight. (Come on I was in UT, it was everywhere) and I’m grateful for it because I was hooked and it made me love reading. So, getting to the purpose of this blog, I went to the midnight showing of New Moon last weekend with some girls in the ward (I love the ward!) and it was a great movie, much better then the first. Although, there wasn’t quite the same energy in the theater as Twilight’s midnight showing in Heber UT with a theater full of crazy high school girls. Any who, I encourage all to see it, even if you have not read the books it’s just a good movie. But, as always, "the book was much better!" :)

love ya
