I love reading when I'm free from daddy duty 😄 I read a lot of C.S.Lewis and science related books. I mostly focus on reading as a way to gain knowledge and to build my perspective.
My go to way to chill is definitely graphic design. I've spent many years perfecting it and I like being able to just create something in just a few minutes.
@CurrySoup12
That sounds amazing! I love C.S. Lewis too :)
@Clarisse29
I like to read, though don't have enough time to read now a days. I'm into knowledge business books, psychology and mystery.
My favorite way to chill, probably watching random anime episodes.
@richuyulin
i hope you're able to make more time for reading in the future!
@Clarisse29
Ugh. Now I feel bad for giving you a superficial answer.
I'm a slower than normal reader. I can skim read content and comprehend it super fast, but my brain won't register it unless I've gone over it like 10 times if not more. This is partially due to ADHD and partially due to how I've trained my brain growing up. When you learn a new language in an environment where you know nothing, you engrain audio better than visual because many times, instructions aren't complete in visual only. You learn you have to retain the audio, in order to make sense of the visual later on. As a result of a combination of my situation, reading slows me down in a hectic schedule. Instead of reading, I listen to audio books to entertain my need for new literature content almost on a daily basis.
I typically don't explain all this. I just answer with I don't have enough time to read and leave it at that because people don't read my responses let alone reply like 90% of the time.
@richuyulin thank you for explaining it all to me :) it felt nice to get to know a little bit more about you and your challenges. and of course, I replied! It was amazing to know your response and that we share the habit of reading!
Audiobooks are definitely a cool way to go about feeding new literature to oneself in case reading isn't possible! I personally employ a mix of physically reading and listening to audiobooks as well (to get through the literature side of my degree :P). I hope you find incredible content to keep you entertained in the future! good luck! :)
🌟 Do you like reading? If yes, then what are some of your favorite books? - It's been a while since I've come across a book thats kept my attention long enough to sit and read it but I'm open to discovering new ones!
🌟 What is your go-to way to chill? - Anything that involves my favorite show and a self care activity like a foot and hand soak
@SirenOfSerenity That sounds really relaxing! :0 I hope you're able to find a book like that soon!
I love any murder mystery books, and my favorite series is Caraval.
I love listening to music, its relaxing <3
@KitKats00 murder mystery is such a cool genre!
Novel: I like Five Star Billionaire
Chill: Coffee or Walk
CDM is a great program. Glad to be part of this team
