Having been extremely busy for the past month or so with a
new job – hence the decrease in posts and the late comments – and with little
time to read in the future – I’ll be working on some applications due in the
next few weeks for a couple of Master’s and Bachelor’s programs I’m interested
in for next year – I’ve decided to take a break from blogging until at least
mid-December. This will not only allow me to get through a few books for review
and work on some posts in advance, but also hopefully read a bit for fun (which
I feel like I haven’t been doing lately). Anyways, see you guys when I get
back!
Z NOOOOOOOOOO! DON'T LEAVE!!!! In all seriousness though, I hope you enjoy your time off and get back to reading for fun. It's so easy to let the blog take over life and then suddenly reading is a chore instead of something to look forward to. Good luck with all your applications!
ReplyDeleteGood luck on the applications, Z! I know they can get overwhelming so be sure to take some breaks and have some fun too. See you when you get back!
ReplyDeleteOhhhh we're going to miss you, hon! Good luck with the applications and I hope you get some time for enjoyable reading!
ReplyDeleteI had suspected you might be making a post like this soon because I noticed the drop off in activity from you - though I am constantly impressed that you always somehow manage to find time to comment on people's blogs even in busy times. I'm also going to start applying for Grad school soon - don't you hate asking for reference letters? Hope the process goes smoothly for you!! And hooray for reading for FUN!
ReplyDeleteSweetheart! I wish all the best! Good luck with every thing!
ReplyDeleteI'll miss you! But you know what? You should always read for fun =D This could sounds a bit bad maybe, but I rarely accept review request unless the book is on my wishlist (which almost NEVER happens) I am very icky with what I read and truth be told, my blog is not a place to promote everyone's book but a place for me to that buzz about the books I love. I just can't like a book I'm not interested in reading (or that I dont feel like reading a the moment) It doesn't work for me. So so far, I have never felt that I am not reading for fun. ALso, some books I just read with no string attached. I can even love the book, but still dont write a review about (e.g. Seraphina) SO sometimes I give myself "the break" lol!
Hope you enjoy your read this month and read for fun! always my dear :)
Best wishes! ^.^ muah!
Enjoy your break, sometimes I feel it's really needed. Like Natalia said, reading should be fun and sometimes with blogging I find it feels like work. Best of luck to you with organising your studies. Take care :)
ReplyDeleteI will miss your presence, but of course, take all the time you need! A little break is necessary sometimes to keep everything manageable. :)
ReplyDeleteYou should always make time to read for fun, so I hope you enjoy the free time! :D

Wow, good luck with that! I think this is a hard time of year for everybody blogging-wise, but we'll all reconvene in 2013. :)
