Student (wildlife science)
Sporadic. Sometimes I read on campus. It's hard reading at home because I'll put on a movie or play a game.
The First World War by John Keegan. It's the first non fiction book I've read in a while. Dropped Ada by Nabakov for it.
Guitar and jobs I only hold down for a month or two. I used to be the aquarium upkeep guy on campus but I got laid off.
