Grabbing the nearest book
A meme for you book lovers:
1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions.
5. Don’t search around and look for the “coolest” book you can find. Do what’s actually next to you.

Yes, I just had my Numerical Analysis final, and the book is close nearby. Leave more in the comments!!
