    It's kinda ironic that I just got distracted from reading by a video about getting distracted while reading :D

    • @camilesouzaa
      @camilesouzaa 7 ปีที่แล้ว +39

      Hahaha right? I'm always like "Why are you calling me instead of texting me? Why are you doing this to me?"

    • @thediamondkid4320
      @thediamondkid4320 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      TwirlyButera You and Jesse are sooooo relatable. I prefer talking in school or texting. Because in school, you are forced to be there. So awkward silences are excused. Texting, I can just say 'Bye, I have to do something.' But calling someone means you have to have an on going conversation.

    • @camilesouzaa
      @camilesouzaa 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      TheDiamondKid Yes, whenever my phone rings I'm like "did something urgent happened, is someone like dying?" but then I pick it up and it's just some random conversation that could be easily done through texting and ugh
      If you wanna talk let's either meet up or you better type, nothing in between. I can't read a book if I'm holding my phone blabbing with you.

    • @thediamondkid4320
      @thediamondkid4320 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Camile Souza Saaaammmeee.
      Me want read book pwease.
      I *hate* awkward silences. It's just *ugh*. It's *horrible*. I can't keep up a conversation.

    • @camilesouzaa
      @camilesouzaa 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes, there's so much pressured involved. To avoid awkward silences you have to keep thinking ahead to find things to say. When you text, even in a fast conversation you have time to confortably think before hitting 'send', and best of all, you can edit stuff.

  • @immortalazure
    @immortalazure 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hahahaha, love this. Yep often feel this, want everything to be perfect when I finally start the book - not hungry, drink at hand, comfortable (this takes ages), and silence for miles. Then want the right vibe/mindset, often people have to tell me to start the book, like what am I afraid of? - heartbreak, crushing of dreams, death. Pretty much, but there is also so much to gain!

    @christinacreech5176 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    You just understand me so much! I'm such a huge distracted reader, and it's so frustrating, because my mind thinks like it does, like it will forget that I"m supposed to sit here and read the book, and be okay with that. I try to put my phone on silent, and out of reach, that way I can't be deserved when I read.

    @thephantomofthearchives4973 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    OMG that's so me!!! I'm always coming up with stuff I have to Google *right nao!* when I'm reading. It's especially hard being a writer and having everything spark ideas for that plotpoint or character arc I was working on (Or give me new ideas to add to the "will write someday" pile of plotbunnies that almost puts my TBR to shame.) BTW, you broke me at "donut". (I happen to be in my grad class on break atm, and not randomly cackling like a crazy person in front of everyone is so hard right now.) 😂😂😂
