lmao!! you read that little and that kind of garbage but yet complain when people know more words then you?
its a well known fact that reading helps increase vocabulary.

oh wait, let me say that in a way you'll understand:

Yes, such people exist.
You should make a separate option for non students then. That is not very clear at all.

i like to read when i'm reading a great book, but if i don't make it to the third chapter or so the first time i sit down (as in it doesn't catch my interest right away) i don't finish it.

I read a few books a month....outside of school required reading I'll read whatever interests me at the moment. Lately I've read Tom Clancy, Andrew Greeley (Blackie Ryan series), among others.
