Reading habits

Usually see more ladies than guys reading onboard public transportation...
Read as they travel... It can be just a normal novel
Seems men dun have such habits -

used to read when i was on a train..
now if i read when i commute, there'll be a car crash -
I used to read on the bus / train but since being narcoleptic, reading on the various modes of transport kinda makes me feel giddy.
These days, I read before bedtime, read whilst eating (unless I'm watching TV), and I also read when I'm erm... sitting on my throne.

i read while i drive (road signs) -
I'll also get motion sickness if I read on board a bus/car. I just read in bed.

Yes, me too. It's not a common affliction, it seems. Reading on the train + plane is ok.Originally posted by Kuali Baba:I'll also get motion sickness if I read on board a bus/car. I just read in bed.
My hubby reads books when he travels on the train/buses - non-fiction stuff. -
cannot read on train / bus
will throw up... -
Waa...train also? I thot the train ride is not so jerky, so it's alright for me.Originally posted by kalangkabo:cannot read on train / bus

When I go travelling up hilly/mountainous areas in a vehicle, while others are enjoying the scenary, I'll be shutting my eyes or napping to avoid giddiness/throwing up.
Is there any solution?
Who else has this problem? -
I can read in the train and bus.
One thing though, I need to read before going to bed if not I can't sleep! -
1. drive
2. sit at front passenger seat in car
3. sit at first row in bus where you can view straight out through windscreen
4. when travelling, focus on a point in a distance
5. there are pills for seasickness but not sure if they work / there are alternatives, for motion sickness
I am very prone to motion sickness too but it's somewhat manageable.Originally posted by Wanda:When I go travelling up hilly/mountainous areas in a vehicle, while others are enjoying the scenary, I'll be shutting my eyes or napping to avoid giddiness/throwing up. Is there any solution?

Good suggestions, and I've tried 2 and 3. No.4 doesn't work for me on a winding mtn road. Somehow, the vision signals sent to the brain can't be aligned with the sensation of balance felt inside the ear (waa...brings me back to biology classOriginally posted by choco B:1. drive

Yah certain road conditions are so bad that it's impossible to prevent motion sickness. Suck on a sweet, that helps. I avoid activities that require too much concentration on a moving vehicle, like searching through a bag for an item.Originally posted by Wanda:Good suggestions, and I've tried 2 and 3.

Reading in MRT train is something I'll do if I have enough elbow room, bus is a no-no, unless I want to get vomit all over my book. Buses and cars frequently make me feel queasy. Most of the time it's easier to just listen to some music.

Aunties too. Cannot tahan thse people because they take up more space and always poke people's back/neck/face with their newspapers.Originally posted by FireIce:i saw alotta uncles reading wan bao

-
My wife no matter how packed the bus or train is, will read...
Seems ladies really read more from the replies -
i only read notes on the public transport when its exam days..
-
i cant...read on bus/taxi...arr transport.when its moving

reading is best done at these two places:
1. at the toilet (while sitting on the throne)
2. in bed before bed time
while on the bus it's much nicer to people watch ... -
Same here. What a waste for the nice book and people sitting beside and infront of me.Originally posted by kalangkabo:cannot read on train / bus
