What else can you do while reading?

Most of the time I prefer quiet when I am reading. Sometimes I can listen to instrumental music, but not any music with someone singing. If I did that, I would end up putting the book down to listen to the music.

I have never tried reading while driving, but I love to read while I am a passenger in the car.

When I'm reading, sometimes I can breathe, and (depending on location) I can dangle my feet in the air.

Eating Flaming Hot Cheetos helps me read. I don't know why.

While reading I can,

eat
uh...read
think about other things (but then, I usually don't comprehend what I'm reading

)
drink
listen to music
comb my hair
swing in a hammock
and walk

I can eat and walk and I used to read in the shower but my dad told me to stop

pretty much though, people have to give me a couple minutes to get "absorbed" in the book, then they can talk, listen to music whatever and i completely tune them out. I miss lots of things while reading...

I can eat, listen to music, play a computer game, gamecube game, sometimes board games, breathing is natural so it doesn't realy count... hehe
and talk on the IM.

Seems like it'd be hard to look at both the computer/tv and the book at the same time, don'tcha think?

Or are you some type of super-human with two sets of eyes!?

If it's for pleasure, I can listen to music with no words, but if it's a textbook or something for school, I need absolute silence.

I'm actually the opposite of that...

I listen to music while I'm reading, especially during school.
I've baked cookies while I'm reading, too.

I can listen to music or anything can be hapening around me, but give me a good book, and ill just sit there and you can try and talk to me, but i am off in another world liveing the book.

its true... and i like reading because nobody can bother me while i do it, unless they take the book away... lol.

HarlowRoxMySox · Post by **HarlowRoxMySox** » Thu Nov 16, 2006 3:49 pm

Ooh, but if I'm reading the text on a video game, I've discovered I can walk and even TALK to people at the same time... it's pretty sweet.
