Obiceiuri livreşti - tag

Carti de Jane Austen

Ce bine mă simt să fiu înapoi pe blog! În ultimele zile am fost stresată cu primele cursuri şi cazarea, dar cred că lucrurile se vor aşeza încet-încet. Vă voi povesti curând despre prima săptămână de facultate, iar între timp am primit un tag interesant de la Iri. Stau foarte prost cu timpul şi nu vă pot eticheta sau anunţa personal, deci oricine îl vrea îl poate posta şi lăsa link.

1. Ai vreun loc preferat în casă în care citeşti?
În patul surorii mele (are pătura mai pufoasă). :3

2. Semn de carte sau o hârtiuţă oarecare?
Semn de carte. Când nu am alternative mai pun şi câte o hârtiuţă, dar nu îmi prea place.

3. Poti sa te opreşti din citit brusc sau trebuie să termini pagina/capitolul?
Încerc să termin măcar paragraful.

4. Mănânci sau bei in timp ce citeşti?
Da, îmi place să ronţăi dulciuri sau să beau ceva cald.

5. Poţi să citeşti în timp ce te uiţi la TV sau asculţi muzică?
Nu.

6. Citeşti cărţile pe rând sau mai multe simultan? 
Am prostul obicei de a începe mai multe cărţi simultan, dar cel mai bine citesc când le iau pe rând.

7. Citeşti doar acasă sau peste tot?
Citesc doar acasă. La şcoală mai citeam şi în pauze, acum nu cred că voi mai avea timp pentru că trebuie să mă plimb între clădirile universităţii. Nu pot să citesc în maşină sau autobuz, dar în tren e foarte plăcut.

8. Citeşti cu voce tare sau în gând?
În gând, fireşte. Am avut tentativa de a citi o carte în engleză cu voce tare, pentru a exersa pronunţia, dar nu merge aşa. 

9. Sari pagini?
Nu sar pagini, oricât ar fi de plictisitoare. 

10. Scrii pe cărţi? 
Nu.

Aveţi grijă de voi până data viitoare! :*
