A woman who developed a method for speed reading. Also used as a reference to her popular training method.
The Evelyn Wood speed reading method is a way of reading whole paragraphs at a time, filtering out common words and only look at uncommon words. By only looking at the uncommon words, you get the jist of each paragraph without actually having to read every single word in it.

Oh great! I was just glancing at a review for the movie we were going to see tonight and my Evelyn Wood training kicked in and now it's spoiled for me. So... why don't we just stay in bed instead?

Get the Evelyn Wood mug.Evelynne is a one of a kind, chic. Shes different. At first she seems hella quiet but when you get to know her she wont shut up. She will bust your neck if she had the chance. Dont ever underestimate her. In her head she has already killed you 80 times in 75 different ways. She is hella thic in both departments. Shes also everymans dream date. She is rude only if your a bitch. She is an all around fun person to be around. She knows what shes doing so dont try and tell her,that her way is wrong. She takes shit from no one. Dont even dare touching her food. She gets hella bitchy when you even try. If you get to be her boyfriend. You are one lucky man.

Get the Evelyn mug.The most beautiful, amazing, kindest, girl in the world.
Damn.
i dated an evelyn before.
She was crazy gorgeous and all the guys would try to get at her.
But she's not a slut, we dated for almost a year and she never flirted with other guys.
Evelyn's are faithful girls,
You'd be lucky to even be bestfriends with an evelyn!
i'd give anything to be with her again,
She gave the best hugs, too!
Evelyn's are the nicest girls you'll ever meet.
She'd always go out of her way to do kind things for others.
She NEVER forgot when our anniversaries were, and we'd go on cute dates to anywhere.
even if we'd go just to a park, she'd make the time worth a while.
Now that we aren't together, i realize what i lost.
If you ever date an evelyn, i'm warning you, don't let her go. ever.

Evelyn's are very loud and confident when surrounded by friends and quiet and timid when on their own. They switch between being extremely dependant on others to being very independent often. Evelyn's strive to make their friends happy and are very yes to no, meaning that they switch between to things randomly. For example, they will go from being super lazy to being determined to do something or have a hard time letting go of someone who they hadn't known for very long and only take a week or so to recover from the loss of someone who they talked to often. Evelyn's are funny and creative. They are so much so fast, becoming extremely warm and caring as soon as you come into their life. They tend to show their affection through gifts and conversation, and they'll always listen to you and give you amazing advice when you need someone. Evelyn's are very straightforward with their feelings and you'll know immediately if an Evelyn hates you, loves you, or wants to be with you. They don't think about what they're saying/doing and either make big decisions on a whim or overthink everything they do. Because they're so unfiltered and most parents are not used to this kind of forwardness, parents (especially mothers)tend to dislike Evelyn's for no good reason. To make a long story short, Evelyn's are loyal, caring people who will hate violently, love endlessly, and switch between thoughts, feelings and actions constantly until the end of time.

Don't hurt an Evelyn, her friends are so thankful for her loyalty that they won't let you live to regret it!
