>>1i remember being pretty much interested in everything as a child. and the world seemed like a really big and cool place.
but i didn't have much to do at home. i did play video games, but i usually got bored of them after about a week or so. so i picked up a more interesting routine. it involved going to the library, picking up random and interesting books from a bookshelf, and trying to read it. i would read the book every day until i finished reading it, which took anywhere between 2-7 days. and then i would go to the library again the next week and repeat the whole process. it sounds less boring than you would think, because remember, i was a very curious child back then and i was reading random books that looked interesting. so reading was actually nice and comfy!
i picked up lots of free and useful information doing this, which helped me throughout my time in elementary school, middle school, and even high school.
