           read a lot of books too, and
           I was really hardworking
           in my classes, like Canan.
           Reading a lot is indispensable
           for me. There are maybe 50
           books open on my desk right
           now. Besides my studies, I
           spend my day reading books.
           Reading books is something
           that nourishes me a lot.
