I've been really bored lately, so I've been reading a book a day. Though I prefer to read stuff about history, so I'm either reading about the American war in Vietnam from the '60's, or I'm reading about pre/Russian Revolution. (Boring, no? xD;; )

I don't have enough books to read one everyday, wish I did though, I'd never be bored. -wishes library wasn't so far-

I loved learning about the Russian Revolution, history is one of my favorite subjects. It's so facinating, I want to learn everything I can about Russia. Right now I'm tryng to teach myself the language. xp it's not easy though

Okay i know it's in english letters but i haven't got the setting to change my keyboard to russian on this computer...
but that should say:

Hello My name is Hollie. What is your name? I am 15. I love Cats and Dogs.

It should say that... i learn russian at school and don't really listen much so heh... might not be right >.>

I also read medical journals for fun. Yeah anatomy and phisology. Though now I'm reading fanfics more then anything else.

I'll read anything and everything! I think one time I borrowed a total of 6 books from the library when I was elementary: 2 history books (Russia and China); 1 biography (Martin Luther King, Jr.); and 3 language books (Italian, French, and German).

And then I borrowed a big-a** 7-language dictionary from my grandma, and three or four medical journals - anatomy, physiology, the workings of a hospital, etc.) from my aunts. xd
