Not Smart Enough for Their Own Good
this was posted in the discussion board for my short story class. holy crap.
"My favorite book, that I have read thus far, is Michael Crichton's "Timeline" closely followed by "The Count of Monte Cristo" by Alexandre Dumas.
3. "Inferno" - Dante
4. "To Kill A Mocking Bird" - Nelle Harper Lee
5. "Martian Chronicles" - Ray Bradbury
6. "The Great Gatsby" - F. Scott Fitzgerald
7. "The Stranger" - Albert Camus
8. "Alas, Babylon" - Pat Frank
9. "Of Mice and Men" - John Steinbeck
10. "The Grapes of Wrath" - Steinbeck & Demott
11. "Their Eyes Were Watching God" - Zora Neale Hurston
12. "Anthem" - Ayn Rand
13. "The Pearl" - Steinbeck
The previously listed books are a few that I read during high school. Each one of them brought a new perspective to my limited reality, and through miscellaneous exercises, essays, reports, presentations and analysis's, I was fortunate to absorb a plethora of newly profound vistas through my own research and also by listening to my peer's outlook on the same materials.
Receiving an "A" in the class was my predominant motivation for reading these books, as being employed in multiple jobs throughout my adolescent years compromised the majority of my extra time, therefore severely restricting additional opportunities for further leisure reading.
I sincerely hope that the prior list of novels does not sway a possible viewer of this thread to assume that I am an avid reader, because such a postulate must be advised exceptionally counterfactual. In retrospect, I loathe my unduly busy schedule in regard to discovering extra time that could perhaps be applied for pleasurable reading.
Embracing the IGNORANCE!!!!
Come on Kids! Pick up a book and find out that the smarter you become the more doors knowledge will open up into the redeeming fact that you are, through that initial wisdom, that much more ignorant and have sooooo much more theoretical and experience knowledge to acquire!
Not only will I practically read anything, I will also tend to enjoy it, because I infrequently read the same thing repeatedly and therefore a spanking-new parcel of information has the capacity and potential to be priceless when engaged in a random conversation or a precarious situation.
Those amongst us whom have a disinclination to pleasurable reading can still concur that I do indeed fancy the hobby of composition and with a fast pace of typing - such articles, similarly to this one, are written in a blink of an eye."
