Me and Novel

 I am Fanny❤️ a student who has a passion for education and plans to be a teacher for my future career. Given the importance of reading, I know reading novels is not for the reflection assignments. It has many to do with personal growth. :)))

Reading novels is something expending boundary the of people's mindsets, something overturning our perceptions. I started to read books until my fifth grade, and my first reading caused an unstoppable storm sweeping my world. 

The first novel I read was a Chinese novel about a boy learning how to get along with his cousin who has down syndrome. Without memorizing the novel's name, the content was still stored in my memory, stacked in the bottom of my childhood memory that is wonderful but blurred. It wasn't a page-turning novel, but a story with a few characters, a simple outline, and no big words, guiding me through the growth of the two protagonists. Reading through their growth path, the author used easy-understanding words to describe the plot that he or she wanted the reader to know, the occasion, weather, environment, movement, emotion, and personal concepts. Sometimes some statements were controversial with mine, and there would be collisions of thoughts that polished my skill to think critically.  

Besides, I also learned to feel emotions by comprehending vivid conversations or implicit writing. The author chose words precisely to animate their creatures with various emotions. Before diving into their story, I never learned that words could bring emotions and influence readers. When it came to their conflicts, I experienced the heartrending feeling for the first time by reading the sharp words they say to hurt each other.  

Although I don't consider myself a regular reader since I read novels only when finding ones that I am fond of, I have to say that reading is the window brightening the inner of me. Without them, I won't have been as complete as I am right now.

  1. I also have some novels that I don't remember the title. It sometimes frustrates me but also helps me to avoid losing my great memory by letting me read it again and see the real story that is different from my imagination. You frequently tell me that you wanna be a teacher in the future .Reading novel can definitely help you to gain knowledge and wide your perspective! You'll make it ! Good luck :)
