My most recent opinion about books

Is it just me or you also feel like you're not getting the most out of your life?

I feel like - and I've been told that a lot of times - I'm wasting my time on stupid things (like watching the same TV series for decades) and I miss the opportunity to do other things that would fulfill my spirit and my life, that would really amuse me or make me feel proud of myself - like reading.

I discovered today that it would be tremendously good for me to read much more - and during school time. I don't usually do that because I get addicted to books and stop studying at all, but I think it depends on the book - there are the softer ones, those that you like reading but don't involve you as much as, let's say, a crime story.

I think reading during school time is a great thing because:

1. It is soooo funny to live your life normally and then find yourself relating some episode you witnessed to the book you're reading. You really get the feeling of having an inner life, thoughts that are only yours. It's really great and it happened to me today on a Biology class (I've just finished a book related to the subject we're studying - Genetics); 
2. It is stupid that someone who aspires to be a writer (read: me) doesn't read as much as humanly possible. Books are the best source for ideas, techniques, everything that improves the style of writing, and it is truly ridiculous to forbid myself of reading during school time - and it gets even worse when I think I don't actually read that much on holidays.

I really should focus on what I want. Maybe reading more would help me with my chronic inability to finish every single story I start, who knows?
