[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] EPANDEMIC Got in trouble all the time for reading ahead in English class. I didn't want to spend a whole class analyzing what we were supposed to read so I'd just whip out the book and keep on reading. If left alone I could usually finish the book. Then I'd read my own. Teachers didn't appreciate this.[/quote]I understand that feel (reading your own book while the class is reading an entirely different one), even though in my case we weren't actually reading it for school. Just something to pass the time with at the end of class. Suffice to say I wasn't really enjoying Percy Jackson, and so decided that A Game of Thrones would be a more effective use of my time. Teacher was not pleased, stating that it is a privilege that we got to use the last bit of time to read a book. Told her how much of a privilege it was, and got three days of detention. I was a Sophomore by the way.
