whaaa? that’s a lot! how did you keep track!

haha. I just know that in the 7th grade we had this thing where after we read a book, we would take a computer test and it had the number of words of the book in it’s database, so I know for sure that I have read more than 1 million words (since that was how much I read that year). but that was the only year we did that. I think I’ve started reading less and less books and more….textbooks (wtf, reading chemistry is near impossible).

Mine’s probably around there somewhere, but I can bet Harry Potter takes up about 10% of all that.

So if you were counting all the newspapers, text books, signs, magazines, commercials with text, and cereal boxes too, do you think you’d be around double that?

Reply: Probably double and a half! I’ve read numerous novel-length fanfiction stories, and of course, we’re surrounded by writing and text every day.

We’re one of a kind! Add fanfiction on top of that and you get round about mine. :P
