Since my exam week is coming up, my teachers apparently decided to give us as much homework as possible. The exam English will be a voabulary and reading exam, so I already learned almost all of the words I have to learn for this test, but reading tests are very difficult to me, because the entire test is multiple choice questions, and that's just what I find very difficult. So for English I decided I'd prepare myself for this test by reading some English books. Of course I already read the entire Harry Potter series in English, but that was a while back. So I went to the shop, because the English books were on sale, so I bought a couple of new books:
- Well DUH, by Bob Fenster
- The Girls Guide for Hunting and Fishing, by Melissa Bank
- The Good Thief's Guido to Amsterdam, by Chris Ewan
I hope they're all good! I didn't have much time when I bought them so I read the back of the books quickly and just threw them into my shopping cart.
For Dutch we have to read 2 books: 'Aslander', by Rien van den Berg, and 'The Dark Room of Damocles' by Willem Frederik Hermans. Good thing that 'Aslander' is a thin book with 128 pages, but unfortunately 'The Dark Room' has over 300 pages, and I am just at page 70. I have a lot of reading to do the next couple of weeks haha. But it's almost vacation! And then I'll have plenty of time to read (:
Since a couple of months, I work at the library, and I like my job, but it's quite annoying that right after I finnished school, I have to cycle straight to my work, and I have to bring my heavy school bag with me. So yesterday, there was a lot of wind and I was already a bit late, so I cycled as hard as I possible could and made it just on time to the library. But apparently it had been very crowded that day, so I had to clean all of the bookcases and shelves, and place ALL of the books right. And a thing little children always tend to do in a library is to push back all of the books on the shelves, so I had to push all of the books back again. Great, so I had two times as much work to do than I usually have to. But oh well, I get paid for it so don't mind that much. (:
The good thing about working in a library is that when you see a book you fancy, you can bring it to the office, and when you're done working you can borrow it from the library. So that is very nice! Always when I see a new Young Adult book or a book that I think is nice I bring it to the office so that I have fresh reading nutrition for the upcoming week haha.
Hm. This blogpost was pretty much all about reading, I hope that's fine with you. Hopefully tomorrow I'll have more time to write a blogpost, but I can't promise you anything. Tomorrow I'll be working late, so maybe it will be online a bit later. I am thinking of doing a TAG for tomorrow. ^^
