Another pointless endevour

Ok here’s another pointless landmark that ive reached. I finished the ‘Harry Potter: Half Blook Prince’ book in 13 hours and 26 mins of straight reading. Nice to have finally read it. It was a nice book. But the reason this blog note is here so i can have a reminder that i have actually read a book for 13.5 hours straight (ignoring the 2-3 odd phone calls, one trip to the store to buy something and a dozen trips to the kitchen to snick something to eat every now and again)

Now if i could only do the same with the php, mysql, networking, one novel and the 2 text books for next sem that i have, i know quite a few people who would be envious of the feat :P If you read the damn book in lesser time then shhh. I hardly ever read books (Ive read only one novel other than the HP series :tongue:). Dont make me use the Levicorpus on you ;)

    Go JA!
    Just like you I hardly read book too! If only I could spend 13 hours working a website design, then it would rock :P

    I hope your eyes didn’t fall out from all that reading :P

    Tasha: your time doesnt count cause you read all the time … i only read textbooks and that i dont need to read for more that 5-6 hours a day (well thats studying and not reading) so never tried more than 9 hours straight studying … since i dont read much i didnt know how long i could read …. :p

    Now i know i guess ;)

    your 5th book time is almost evil :sad:

    if snape doesnt help harry find the horcruxes i sware ill kill him my self :dodgy:

    Wtf?

    grrrr I gotta learn someway. I cba to open up php.net’s manuals and check every function that everyone uses (well research on code and stuff) cause sometimes i need to learn stuff and i dont have access to pc’s, like when im in transit. At such times i prefer books :p
