Would you rather spend your free time reading a book or watching a movie?

If you ask me, when I have free time, I'd rather read a book than watch a movie. I love reading because it makes my world seem different, which is why I first love the feeling of it. I feel like I'm traveling to a different world when I read a book because I feel like I can interact with the characters and people in it. I get to visit various locations and investigate various ideas and concepts.

In addition, when I read a book, I can pick up new words and expand my vocabulary. Reading a book helps me relax and take my thoughts off of any issues or stress I may be going through.

Naturally though, I'm not always in the mood to read. It also depends on how I'm feeling and the book or movie's genre. For instance, I like to watch a movie when all I want to do is unwind and take in the visual effects. I have more fun watching movies with special effects, gorgeous scenery, and original plotlines than I do reading books.

Reading books also gives me the chance to pick the author's brain about new concepts and ideas. I gain insight into the author's ideas and thoughts in addition to the book's narrative. Reading a book gives me a fresh viewpoint, which helps me learn something new and broaden my knowledge.

Overall, I still find that reading a book is preferable to watching a movie because reading allows me to explore a wider world. It has a special impact on me and is both calming and educational to read a book. Naturally, it still depends on how I'm feeling and what I want at the time. I occasionally prefer to watch a movie, especially when I just want to relax and take in the interesting visual effects.


How about you?

I would choose reading over watching a movie. But I still love watching a movie, whenever time permits, which is rarely these days.

Me too. But I also watch movie depends on the mood hehe

I am not a wide reader but I love to read blogs. Hehe. Pag mahilig talaga sa books malalaman mo kasi ang galing mag organize ng thoughts into writing like you.

Oh thank you! I'll take it as a compliment hehe. You're good at writing too!

I am sorry but I have to choose watching a movie. Honestly, I easily get tired and sleepy when I read a book. Haha✌️
However, reading makes you more knowledgeable of some things.

Tama, isa sa challenges ng pag reread ay antok haha minsan di effective pagbabasa ko kasi inaantok si em hahaha

Kape ang katapat. 😂

Ayan, tama yan hahaha yong kapeng matapang at kaya kang ipaglaban🤣

I love books when I was young, but I shifted now on watching movies hahaha. Pero tinatry ko bumalik ngayon sa pagbabasa since like you said you can pick new words and expand your vocabulary :))

Oh that's cool! Balik kana haha. Laki talaga ng help pagbabasa eh. Iba parin talaga kesa sa panonood lang.
