During lunch, our class usually watches a movie, and if it's good I'll watch it. If not, then I submerge into the pool of the cosmere. Wait why am I doing a cool emoji? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tesh Posted December 9, 2020 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2020 2 hours ago, Ookla the Tortured said: Anyone else read during lunch? Not as often as I used to, mostly because I don't really have a quiet place to go and sit where I can be alone. I stayed in one of my teacher's classrooms the other day to finish test corrections, and when I finished I spent the rest of the time reading. It was really nice, and I'll probably do it some more. There was only one other person in there, too. When I was in elementary school, I would go into the library every single recess and read or work on my book. (If you want to read said book, I'll send it to you. It's hilarious how terrible it is.) My teachers used to force me to go outside. Then in fifth grade, after my best friend decided I wasn't really her best friend anymore, I would read on the swings, or play with a few friends who's imaginations were just as crazy as mine. *sigh* Elementary school. Back when things were simple. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would sit in the library and read... Oh, that's why I would read outside during fifth grade! We got a new librarian, and she was mean. The old one had been one of my favorite people ever. But then I started hanging out with some cool kids, and we'd pretend to be adventurers and stuff, and we'd go find griffin eggs and other things like that. (I did stuff like that up through seventh grade, if we're being honest here.) What were your guys's favorite books in elementary school? Mine were Percy Jackson, Harry Potter, Septimus Heap, Fablehaven, and The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flammel. (This was a genuine list I had, by the way.) Oh, and there was that one time I tried to start a book club! But everyone read really slowly, and so I got bored. And in the end, only one person showed up regularly, and I think he might have liked me. I have some really weird, random memories of this kid.

My favorites were Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings. Harry Potter was my first obsession, and then I read Lord of the Rings. I didn't really appreciate LOTR at first because it was more difficult to read, but by the end of elementary school I was basically a die hard fan. I still love Harry Potter and LOTR, and that's a good thing because my room is basically covered in merchandise that I started buying back then. I have a ridiculous amount...It's honestly kind of concerning. But my room looks epic now so I don't care. However, I am kind of embarrassed of the other fandom I was in. I was one of those kids that read Warrior cats and roleplayed as cats on Animal Jam (and maybe in real life too). I feel like every school had a warrior cat kid, and, unfortunately, that was me. I only read the first 4 before literally rage quitting because I couldn't handle my favorite character dying, but those 4 books were enough to make me crazy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even now I can barely make it through LotR. I definitely couldn't have made it through in elementary school. I listened to it on audio, but I've still never read it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But after I read through it once I appreciated it a lot and that's when I became a fan. I also watched the movies like hundreds of times. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s crazy long. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
