Just read five to ten pages of a book before you go to sleep every night! It’s relaxing, interesting, and before you know it, you’ve read lots of books. I find this really helpful if you’re very busy and take what little time you can get. Also, read books that interest you. If you’re forcing yourself to read a classic that you just can’t stand (as I found out with ‘A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man’, curse you, Joyce!), you won’t enjoy reading and consequently won’t make time for it.

An easy way to begin blogging more is to freewrite. Just write everything on your mind, or about something that happened to you that day. It doesn’t have to be big. There’s something in every day that affects you and changes you for better or for worse. So write about that!
You can also read a book, watch a movie, listen to a song, etc., and write your impressions of it.

I rode an elephant when I was younger, with my dad. I don’t even remember being scared. It’s so different from riding a horse, which might seem obvious, but it’s a completely different sensation. It’s awesome – I definitely recommend doing this!
