      Honestly I was so into a book the other day that I realised that I broke the spine halfway through so now there’s one annoying crack down the middle and the book stays open in a weird way... at least it’s well loved and shows I appreciated the actual story rather than the condition of the book 🤷🏽‍♀️ still annoys me though 😂

      Yes! I drink tea while reading AT LEAST once a day, but sometimes I do it up to three times a day. I’m literally doing it while I’m writing this, I just decided to take a little UA-cam break! Also, this is a coincidence, because she mentioned chai tea being her favourite kind, and that’s what I’m having!

  • @JenKayna
    @JenKayna 7 років тому +9

    I read before bed mostly too. I've also started reading at work between appointments. I've recently discovered that snacking helps me from falling asleep too soon when I'm all cuddled up in bed while reading....so I try to have a little something ready to go if I'm wanting to stay up later to read!

  • @KalesKorner
    @KalesKorner 9 років тому +54

    Your Chai Tea coffee concoction is fantastic, and Goldfish are the greatest snack. I like to have classic music on when I read. It clears the room easily for me, and blocks out surrounding noise. It gives my brain some undistracting background noise. I am such a bad tub reader, it is not a skill of mine to kudos to you!

    • @vsync_

  • @rachelhesketh94
    @rachelhesketh94 9 років тому +14

    Ooh, this was so interesting! I actually have two opposite reading 'routines' one is quite like yours- snuggled up in bed, with a cup of tea at night in pyjamas with no sounds whatsoever. Yet when I use the bus (pretty much everyday) the service into town and back home can either go the long way round or the shorter way round, so I always get the longer route and I have music playing in my earphones whilst I read ( I get quite a lot of reading done on it). I also like to read in the bath too, especially in autumn and winter, I have candles, relaxing music, bubbles, sometimes wine, it's great!

    • @alibhg3063
      @alibhg3063 9 років тому +1

      +Rachel Hesketh I could never read with headphones on. I'd be too distracted listening to the music lol. I don't mind having some outside noise, but in the summer I find myself turning on my A/C to block a lot of the noise while I read.

    • @rachelhesketh94
      @rachelhesketh94 9 років тому +2

      I always listen to the same album (The Trail To Oregon Soundtrack- Team StarKid) over and over again though whilst reading, and walking to and from the bus stops that it does just become background noise. It also blocks out most of others chatting and little kids screaming and I feel like I'm in my own little bubble. Even today I was in the zone, didn't look up once from my book and ended up missing my stop and was almost into town. I had to then catch another bus back home!

  • @bluEish04
    @bluEish04 8 років тому +81

    I can't read without music. I just can't. And it has to fit the tone of the book, too, which is super annoying because if I can't find the right music, there's just no way I can start reading. I mostly listen to instrumentals though, so they don't distract me.
