Does this look good?Have you ever wanted to escape your life for just a little bit without consequence? When I feel like this, I love to read and/or listen to music. Just sitting down with a good book, I seem to leave my body and go to another world. Or just down in a dark room all by myself with some music and just listening, not paying any attention to anything else in the world. I am reading one minute, and the next, it is like I am the main character in the book. I love it when I sit down and tell myself that I am gonna read for an hour, then look up, and half the day has passed. If I ever need to relax after a long day of tests, then I turn off all my lights in my room and pick a playlist, and before I know it, I am passed out for the night.
