E-books are unhealthy too. The light given off by these devices can lead to 80 problem. A study showed it took e-book readers an average of ten minutes longer to fall asleep than those who read print books.

I was having trouble dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about giving up both acting and the life in this awful place.
As I walked down the empty street under tall buildings, I felt very small and cold. \myself and began to do so, both to keep warm and- keep away from any possible danger.
About a block from my flat, I heard a sound behind me. I turned quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun, but the street was empty.
