i hate reading lots of words.

Ever since I've graduated from elementary school, I've gotten a habit of skipping large paragraphs of text when I'm reading.
I always feel a little bit intimidated when I see line after line after line after line after line of words.
It's gotten to a point where I can't even read some books properly.
If I don't get into the book, I'll flip through a couple pages for an interesting part.

Then I got this English teacher in 7th grade.
Her tests were mainly based on the little details in the novel.
Like, some of her questions were like "What color was the protagonist's shirt in Chapter 12?"
You probably thinking I'm joking, but I'm not.
I failed English that year.

Also, because of my fear of paragraphs, I've gotten into a habit of making linebreaks at almost every period.
Have you noticed that?  Most of my posts don't have proper paragraphs.

They're
always
typed
like
this.

And this is so hard to explain. I can't just go up to my teachers, and be like

"Hey, I hate reading paragraphs, so can I skip every few pages and only actually read half of the assigned book? Thanks!" 

This post probably makes no sense at all.
I just read this entire thing over, and I don't even get it.

And I wrote it myself.
Maybe this is another issue I need to look into.
